Product review (1 stars): Really look around
I have had compactors since 1972 and this has the biggest motor and does the worst at compacting... I had the best luck with the round canister type..as a matter of fact I am rebuilding my last one and taking the Broan-Nutone out...you may see it on e-bay soon...also the Broan-Nutone when under real pressure opens the door by it self... which stops the downward compact and you have to close it...the bags SMELL off some weird plastic Oder ...which after 3 days ..a person cannot stand...I made a big mistake buying a Broan thinking it was going to be a quality piece of kitchen appliance... I got a 5 star pricey POS instead
