Reencle Prime

After reading about a few different com posters, I decided on this one. It was a bit bigger than expected so it doesn't sit on the counter. It was very easy to setup, just pour in the packaged compost material and add water. Like previously mention it was a bit bigger than expected, so it took some time to fill the machine with leftovers/garbage. If you're bigger than 2/3 people this will be good for you. After a few months of usage, here are my takes. The noise level isn't bad you'll need to stand next to it to even notice it. No issue with odors coming out of the machine. when you do open it doesn't smell like garage. For me, it smells like bread that is rising. I've already started using the compost in my garden. Great way to reduce waste and give back.

Works perfectly and is a great way to cut down on food waste. No smell whatsoever. This is an awesome product at a reasonable price. Highly recommend .

It is very quiet and quick to process waste, and easy to use.

This is a great machine! It is much more convenient than the outdoor tumble one we have! No smell and fast processing of scraps! Well worth the money!

I've had it for a month now. It works pretty well. A little annoyance is the lid opens when I walk by sometimes and closes when I am still putting scrapes in. I don't know where the max fill line is located. I did not see any reference to where it was in the literature. Smells are like rising bread. Pleasant so far. Happy to make compost from scraps.

I’ve had this on my wish list for a long time before I decided to purchase it since it is definitely something you have to budget for. And when I took the plunge, it was really worth it. I was looking for a composter that didn’t just dry the organic matter but actually breaks them down and is usable as compost. Even though you can’t directly add the result into soil, it still does a lot more than the other dehydrating machines. The capacity was perfect for two people as we don’t have a lot of scraps but enough that we were filling our trash bin regularly. By using this machine we were able to cut down on our waste by 50%. It’s easy to set up and use and so far we had this for more than a year and nothing has broke. It doesn’t attract any insects and doesn’t smell at all. The noise level is minimal. Sometimes you hear it turning but that’s only if it’s overflowing or if you end up throwing something like corn husk in there and it becomes stringy. Would totally recommend this for family and friends who want an easy way to compost at home.

I have been researching electric composters for a while, so I was super excited when I finally purchased the Reencle! I went through all of the good and bad reviews and decided it was worth a shot because I absolutely hate throwing away food, especially leftovers that can't be put into a traditional compost bin that we already have. In the beginning, it was GREAT! It was super easy to set up, you just plug it in and add the starter pack with water. I could put anything in it, and watched it turn into compost without any smells or mold. I made sure all the food was rinsed first before putting it into the bin and everything was cut up into pieces just as instructed in the manual. It never had a smell, the seal was great, and it held a lot of food! After 3 weeks of use, it started making a strange grinding noise. So I did all of the trouble shooting that was recommended. I added water to it to make sure the stirring bin wasn't too dry, I emptied out the bin to make sure nothing was wrapped around the stirring rods, I cleaned the filter thoroughly. But NOTHING made the noise go away. So I figured why not try to dry out the bin and maybe that's what the problem was because it was too thick (even though it was below the max line). Well, sure enough, the "purify" light started blinking red, and per the manual, that means there's something wrong with the fan and I needed to contact customer support. Considering this machine only comes with a 1 year warranty, and I'm already having problems after 3 weeks, I decided to return it to Amazon within the 30 day window. Because even if it gets fixed, it will probably eventually break again since it's constantly running and trying to break down food. I was so disappointed and sad! Now I'm back to square one looking for another electric composter that will actually help me decrease waste.

Been throwing all my food scraps in; it functions well and has been steadily turning it into “dirt”. It is too big to fit on my counter, so I hide it under my kitchen table. It has a nice and sleek look. So far, no issues with the mechanical components, which seem fairly sturdy.

Works well so far

I keep it in the kitchen, and it is slightly louder than my fridge, but not by much. The smell is mostly present when you open the lid, and will depend on how balanced your compost is. (took me few weeks to get rid of the yogurt smell after adding too much at once) after that I learned not to add too much stuff at once, but if i do it in smaller batches it handles all my organics no problem. So far I am very happy with the purchase and would buy it again.

It was my favourite thing, until it broke and stopped working after only 7 weeks of use. Have contacted the company but they are not responding to emails. It is also very smelly. You have been warned! Expensive mistake.

It’s seriously the best purchase I made this year. This little machine is like a robot pet lol. Whenever I’m cooking, I just “feed” it and I don’t have to stress about egg shells, veggie peels, bread crumbs—any of that mess! Now I want to cook more often!! Highly recommend it!
