Home Zone Living Electric Composter for Kitchen, Helps Turn Food Waste Into Pre-Compost, Features Auto-Cleaning Cycle, Large Capacity 3 Liters Size

I have used this machine almost everyday since I’ve received it. It’s easy to clean and it’s quiet ( I run it at night). I cut up everything into small pieces but I’ve put a lot of different things in it. Watermelon rind, corn cobs, celery, onion and potato skins, apples, oranges, egg shells, coffee grounds, bread, banana peels, etc. I love it!!! It’s not small, but worth ever penny and it’s very well made.

6 Month Update: Totally stopped working. I have gone through all of the troubleshooting steps to no avail. Seems like others have the same problem within the same timeframe. Wish I didn't purchase this product for it to stop working so soon.I was hesitant to buy this at first because I wondered how well it would actually work, how limited it would be on the food waste it can take, etc. I have been blown away. It is small, looks chic, fits neatly into the corner of our kitchen counter, has no odor, and runs very quietly when it is on (about a third to a quarter of the noise as a dishwasher). On top of that, it has been able to process nearly everything I have thrown at it--meat, egg shells, melon rinds, bread--even dead flowers and plants. After a few hours I've got a bucket of dirt that I use in my flower beds and inside planters. Not only that, but because there's no food sitting in the trash, we don't have fruit flies anymore.The only thing I would say to be careful of is if you have a pet (we have a dog), they will smell the dirt initially as food and might try to eat it. Our dog did this once so whenever we put the dirt on our inside planters, I sprinkle cayenne on top of it and we haven't had an issue since.

This machine is so fun. It's large enough to handle up to a week's worth of scraps for our family. It looks elegant and is simple to use. The bucket is really easy to clean, just wipe it out with a damp cloth after each use. And the smell of the fresh mulch is wonderful!We keep a bin beside the machine to collect our scraps throughout the week. That way the machine doesn't get moldy waiting to be run.Be sure to chop hard pieces (like tomato vines) or stringy scraps (like celery) into smaller chunks so you don't jam the machine. But if it does get stuck, it just stops and you simply clean it out in the morning.Also if you notice an odd smell when it's running, it simply needs a filter change. Charcoal pellets are available by the bag, so that's cheap and easy, too!I've had this about 8 months and still love it. It's a quality product!

Had to replace filters within 2 weeks and after replacing I see I will have to replace them frequently. But the device but she works really well.

This thing doesn't require any drainage of water. You just have to change the pellets every 6 months or so depending on usage.Food waste goes in, compost comes out, doesn't smell and can be used indoors. It truly feels like a magic box and I still don't understand where the water goes because it doesn't have any visible vents and it doesn't feel humid around the box. Was bought for us as a present, and we in turn were so impressed we also bought it as a present for others. Can't recommend enough!

14 months after purchase, it no longer works. It still dries, but no longer grinds. It appears that the screw connection between the compost canister and the blade is stripped. I am very disappointed, as it worked well until this issue. I feel like the cost was a bit much for something that worked for barely more than a year of once or twice a week use.

This machine came packed very nicely. Instructions were clear. I have done around 6 loads so far with no issues. No noticeable smells coming from the machine. Unit uses about .85 Kwh of energy from start to finish. It took roughly 5 hours per cycle from start to finish. When it goes into the mixing/grinding mode it has a noticeable noise. If you turn on the TV or have a fan running I don't think you would notice it too much. I start mine in the morning before I leave for work for this reason. The end product itself doesn't smell bad. It is probably about a 90 percent reduction in size from before the cycle start to after the process is completed.

UPDATE: it worked great at first, and I was loving it. I clean it regularly and after one of the cleaning cycles I placed scraps in like I normally do and hit start. It acted like it was going to run, but when I woke up to empty it. The scraps were still and they’re like I left them. I insured everything was cleaned out and put back in place and tried it again and it just spins like it is going to run and when I check it the next morning the food is still the same way I left it. I reached out to support but have yet to hear from them. Any ideas?I have only used it once and ran it when I was sleeping so I’m not sure how long it took. All I know is I woke up and it looked like this. Definitely not loud, more like white noise which I’m fine with. This is so much easier than turning a compost every week and dealing it the mess of that. Love this so so much!!!
