I am pleasantly surprised at how much I like this bin. It is incredibly convenient hanging off the end of my trashcan, but more importantly it comes off easily to be moved to the counter during food prep. It's great to not have to dirty a 'scraps' bowl like I used to have to do. It has definitely kept the odors trapped as promised. It's been about three weeks and I'm shocked at how little actually ends up in the large trash can and happy that I'm not wasting large bags on a half empty bin because some food stinks.
