I don't understand why someone would freeze compost...

Kathrine

Nice idea to mask the odors but a bit pricey for it's purpose. A plastic storage container would fill the same use at a fraction of the price.

food gift for someone but too expensive for a treat gift

It might be hard to sell my husband on this one (the idea of having garbage in our freezer), but I love it!

Vote: Thumbs up!

Love it, but WOW! $60 is too much for a bucket.

DF
Vote: Thumbs up!

the price seems higher than expected, but interesting product

Suzanne
Vote: Thumbs down!

Great idea, esp for the winter (our compost is under 2' of snow!) but way overpriced. I may go home and put an old tupperware tub in the freezer for the same purpose, though!

I love it but not the price. I agree with others...I could just use a plastic container.

J
Vote: Thumbs down!

gross :(

karen
Vote: Thumbs up!

LOVE it. I want this. Will I spend $60 bucks on it? No. The thing that makes it more tempting than a generic plastic bucket is the dark color and silicone flexibility. Does it even have a lid?

too expensive!

Sanriobaby

I really love and promote this idea but this is overpriced and honestly, it gave everyone on this site the idea to do this on thier own for a fraction of the cost.

Maria

love the idea way over priced

elizabeth
Vote: Thumbs down!

what? who wants to keep compost in the freezer? compost properly kept will not have fruit flies or odor - best solution is a worm bin - $60?????

Amy
Vote: Thumbs down!

Just gross. Garbage next to my edible food??

zoe
Vote: Thumbs up!

it is ok

Deborah
Vote: Thumbs down!

I don't have that much room in my freezer to spare and I empty my compost regularly to avoid the problem. Just seems like another thing that would be found five years later in the back of a cabinet.

Gigi
Vote: Thumbs down!

Compost is stinky and the thoughts of it in the freezer is not appealing. Keep it outside!

Pam
Vote: Thumbs down!

I agree with the other writer who doesn't understand why one would freeze compost. Seems like alot of extra work to me. And yes, the price point is rather high for this kind of thing. There are all kinds of compost pails on the market that are just as functional as this, with lower price point.

just not for me

Jill
Vote: Thumbs down!

I would NEVER put the compost in the freezer. That's gross to me. But, that's just me.

Vote: Thumbs down!

The price seems very high for the same material that is used for ice cube trays that cost $1.99 at Ikea.

Judy
Vote: Thumbs up!

Clever, but does it have a lid to prevent spilling if it is tipped?

LINDA

This would be handy

Cheryl

storage issues in the freezer

Claudia
Vote: Thumbs down!

it keeps repeating-once was enough.

Irene

This has no appeal to me at all. For those who are set on composting, I am sure they would buy something for use outside. I know I wouldn't want it in my freezer. It is always filled with edible food, not garbage! And another thing, where on earth did they come up with such a high price?

Andrea
Vote: Thumbs down!

How is this different than any $10 bin at target or home depot? Is the freezing bin better from the regular compost bins?

Patricia
Vote: Thumbs down!

If you must freeze it - put it in any old container. Compost is to put on your garden, not in the freezer!

Deanne
Vote: Thumbs down!

cost to much, who has that much room in freezer!

kelly

wouldn't the frozen food scraps mess up the temperature of your compost?

Dina

Not needed. I compost. It doesn't smell.

Krista

Yuck - and overpriced.

Teresa

I'm not too sure about this, it seems like a real stretch when it comes to being "green".

Portia

Mollie

It's just overkill. More plastic for the landfills. There are already enough composters out there that do the trick!

sounds crazy to freeze compost. Who has room in the freezer for this?

Lynsey

freezing compost...great idea for someone witha small area that doesn't want the smell lingering everywhere although if you have a small space will you have enough room to freeze it??

Kathleen

Sorry, this just looks useless.

kathy
Vote: Thumbs down!

I don't understand this. Who has room in their freezer for this, and why put a compost in your freezer? $60????!!

Jessica
Vote: Thumbs down!

The price is high, other containers could do just the same thing, it really should have a lid, and the band around the middle and lip around the top take up unnecessary room in the freezer. Not sure i'd put trash in freezer anyway....

Teri
Vote: Thumbs down!

don't see the need to fill up my freezer with waste.

Christina
Vote: Thumbs up!

I love it, but like others, I think it is overpriced for the market and I want to know if it has a lid!

BETH
Vote: Thumbs up!

Good idea, but $60 seems a bit steep

Maja
Vote: Thumbs up!

Perhaps a little pricey, I've seen cheaper ones....

Linda

I don't compost.

Jodene
Vote: Thumbs down!

Seriously?

Jaye
Vote: Thumbs down!

UGH! Compost in the freezer? Even if I wanted to keep garbage in the freezer, the price of this item is ridiculous! Try Rubbermaid!

Melissa
Vote: Thumbs up!

Cool, but would be cool if it were made out of RECYCLED silicone

Jody
Vote: Thumbs down!

I live in a condo where my freezer space is precious! And if I really wanted to freeze my compost I'd use an old butter tub- really.

Therese
Vote: Thumbs down!

An example of hyper-consumerism.....why not use an otherwise throwaway plastic container that can provide a little more usefulness before heading for the landfill?

Linda

Not sure enough people would buy this...

Amanda

jessica
Vote: Thumbs down!

I freeze compost for my worms when they aren't quite ready to eat but once it's in the freezer, it doesn't smell. Not an issue with fruit flies either. Freeze it in a ziploc bag, like I do.

rebecca

Why use energy to be more energy efficient? Compost turns waste into fertilizer, cutting down on chemicals and carbon used to grow food (or whatever). Freezing it defeats the purpose.

Sue

I compost all my garbage and I can't imagine using this.

Kerry
Vote: Thumbs down!

Too expensive and why wouldnt you just take it outside, why put it in the freezer???????

Barb
Vote: Thumbs up!

ewww - like i'd want that hanging out in my freezer. NOT!

Katy
Vote: Thumbs up!

Seems practical if you do this sort of thing.

Katy

Already reviewed this one. Seems practical for those who compost

Marty

Too spendy to just freeze garbage.

Nancy

Kinda silly, is you want to freeze compostrecycle a Cool whip tub.

Debra

Seems unnecessary

kat

Would be a very good idea at a much lower price.

Trish
Vote: Thumbs up!

Great idea, but I wouldn't have room in my freezer for it. Awfully expensive, too.

Kathryn

i dont see a top. without a cover, i suspect my ice cream will taste like compost shortly after I start to use it.

INTPLibrarian

Way too expensive, though.

What's the point?

Kathy
Vote: Thumbs down!

Toooo expensive

gayle

Wouldn't use it.

Denise
Vote: Thumbs down!

Why waste freezer space on waste? I'd rather have an odor-free kitchen composter that holds more.

Ramen Freak
Vote: Thumbs down!

This is pretty overpriced for a box you put in the freezer. Besides, it makes no sense to me, why someone would use valuable freezer real estate for waste. Just put it in your bin!

ASHLEY
Vote: Thumbs down!

Seems like many other, cheaper things could be used for this purpose.

stacie
Vote: Thumbs down!

takes up lots of freezer space and doesn't hold much. prefer to compost on the countertop

sheila

Not "uncommon" enough for me

Carolyn
Vote: Thumbs up!

Price a bit high

Tara
Vote: Thumbs up!

Just too much money.

MELISSA
Vote: Thumbs down!

unnecessary. idea might be good for some - if spare room in one's freezer - but what about this makes it any better than any other bin/ container, which would cost MUCH less (if anything!)

Melissa
Vote: Thumbs down!

Dont think I would want to take up part of my freezer with compost.

Ginger
Vote: Thumbs up!

I think it's overpriced, but a great idea.

Mariah
Vote: Thumbs down!

why would you put it in the freezer, when now they have orderless under the sink compost that wouldn't be near things you eat. Plus, 60 pucks for a silicone trash bin?

John
Vote: Thumbs down!

You can get countertop composters that have have carbon filters for the odor and are kept near your food prep area for convenience. Not to mention freezer space is usually at a premium and paying $60...

Holly
Vote: Thumbs down!

nice idea but 30-40 would be more reasonable.

vanessa
Vote: Thumbs down!

I don't think I want my compost in my freezer

Dixie
Vote: Thumbs down!

I would have said "Yes" except for the price.

Kimberly
Vote: Thumbs up!

too pricey

Trudy
Vote: Thumbs down!

I would so NOT put this in my freezer.

Elizabeth
Vote: Thumbs up!

there is no where for me to have a compost pile because my dogs always find it. this is a great product for someone with hungry dogs like me or someone who doesn't enough space for a compost pile.

Vicci
Vote: Thumbs down!

It's a great idea, but waaay over-priced. I can buy a cheap silicone loaf pan

Kara
Vote: Thumbs down!

I love the concept and already wrap up waste that would stink up my trash can and garage before trash day and put it in my freezer till trash day. But this is made of silicone and should not be that expensive.

Linda
Vote: Thumbs down!

ever hear of plastic bags???

bobbie
Vote: Thumbs up!

kindof expensive but good idea

Amanda
Vote: Thumbs down!

I don't quite understand the point of freezing your compost.

Mitzi
Vote: Thumbs down!

no, no and no !!

Jessica
Vote: Thumbs down!

Interesting. As someone who composts, I like the idea of anything that helps keep the counters clean. As someone who also stocks a freezer, I hope it really is 'sized for busy freezers.' However, the reason this is a 'no' is because the price is WAY too high. $20 max.

Amanda
Vote: Thumbs down!

don't people who compost, just take the stuff out right away... unnecessary step

Jessica
Vote: Thumbs up!

I don't compost yet, but I can see this being useful.

elisabeth
Vote: Thumbs up!

Nice idea, wouldn't buy it at that price though.

Kathleen

My freezer space is so limited, and I would not pay $60 for a tub.

Rebecca
Vote: Thumbs down!

We compost, but this seems a bit impractical for the price point. We have a small ceramic compost holder with a carbon filter that looks cute in the kitchen. The smell is not a problem since we empty it in our outdoor compost bin every few days.

Amy
Vote: Thumbs down!

Good idea, however, who has that much room to spare in the freezer?

Norine
Vote: Thumbs down!

I would buy this if it was cheaper and in a different color. Great idea.

Cathy
Vote: Thumbs up!

I like the idea a lot as an apartment dweller -- but the price does seem a bit high

Ann
Vote: Thumbs down!

Too expensive...use a freezer bag if you want to freeze garbage. yuck!

Aimee Dars
Vote: Thumbs down!

I like the idea but I don't know if it is practical.

Jill
Vote: Thumbs down!

no thoughts

Judi
Vote: Thumbs down!

Cool idea. My mom used to put things in a plastic bag in the freezer, so I get it. She didn't want the trash to stink and would put it in the compost pile. But this price is crazy!

Looks like something to buy from Home Depot, not a nice catalog like yours.

Kathy

No way I'm putting compost in my freezer. Use a cheap, replacable, lidded plastic bin, take out the compost regularly and you won't have fruit flies and bad smells. Jeez.

Jennifer

It seems silly to freeze compost, just put it in the bin.

Celeste

Great idea - but the estimated price is outrageous.

Beth
Vote: Thumbs up!

Love the concept but the price is high. Probably wouldn't buy because of the price.

Mariah

WAY over-priced! For something that sits in the freezer

Monique
Vote: Thumbs up!

Great product, but price needs to be lower

Jody
Vote: Thumbs down!

I don't know about having a garbage can with no lid in my freezer. Plus, I don't have a compost pile.

Janet
Vote: Thumbs down!

So you want us to put smelly compost in the freezer and smell up all our food! Gross! Cakes and such absorb other odors - I would never do this.

John
Vote: Thumbs down!

You can get countertop composters with carbon filters for odor and they're usually kept closer to food prep areas for convenience. Besides $60 for this?

Andrea
Vote: Thumbs down!

I don't know about you guys but I would not have room for this in my freezer!

Melissa
Vote: Thumbs down!

Uhhh...NO! It's too small for the money anyways. There are much better composting bins.

Daniel
Vote: Thumbs down!

Good idea. Nice style. Good for those who live in the city during the week and go to the country where they can compost on the weekends.However, too expensive and doesn't have a top that locks tight.

jw

I love the idea of it, especially since there is a current compost pilot program in NYC where people can bring their scraps to select Greenmarkets. However, the price is too much for most people, otherwise, I think it would sell well, especially in urban areas like NYC

Lily

Cool idea!

Garbage/Compost should be kept separate from where you store your edible food. Some people use worms in their compost...the worms won't survive in the freezer.

Wendy
Vote: Thumbs down!

Don't need this taking up room in the freezer. Besides, one can just as easily dedicate a plastic container (made for freezer storage) instead of buying this specially.

Peggy
Vote: Thumbs down!

A DUMB IDEA.

Heather
Vote: Thumbs down!

Great idea, but it is WAY too expensive.

The Tupperware comment correct! What makes this worth $60.00? The idea? Sorry, I don't think so.
