Product Information
Full details
The Purely Home Compost Caddy is an ideal solution for environmentally conscious homeowners who want to manage food scraps efficiently without sacrificing kitchen aesthetics. Featuring a charming floral meadow design and a 2-litre capacity, it is perfectly sized for countertop use; however, its modest size means it requires more frequent emptying compared to larger outdoor bins.

FAQs
Does this caddy include a filter?
Yes, it features a carbon filter holder built into the lid, though you should check the package to ensure a filter is included or if you need to purchase replacements separately.
Can I put the caddy in the dishwasher?
No, the Purely Home Compost Caddy should be wiped clean only. Dishwasher heat and detergents may damage the finish and the bamboo lid.
What size bag should I use?
This unit is compatible with 5-litre compostable bin liners.
Is the lid airtight?
The lid is designed to sit securely and includes venting holes to allow for proper airflow, which is essential for aerobic composting, rather than being completely airtight.
Can I use it without a bag?
Yes, you can place waste directly into the removable plastic inner bucket, though using a compostable bag makes cleaning much easier.
Troubleshooting
Persistent odours despite the filter
Ensure the carbon filter is seated correctly in the holder and consider replacing the filter if it has been in use for more than 2-3 months.
Difficulty removing the plastic inner bucket
Check if food waste has spilled over the side between the bucket and the ceramic base; remove the bucket, clean the residue, and dry both surfaces before reinserting.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Removable inner bucket allows for easy cleaning
- Compact size is perfect for small to medium households
- Integrated filter system helps manage common kitchen odours
Cons
- 2-litre capacity fills up quickly in high-waste households

- Bamboo lid requires care to avoid water damage
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your caddy, place the plastic inner bucket securely inside the ceramic base. The unit is fully compatible with 5-litre compostable liners, which can be tucked over the rim of the inner bucket for added cleanliness. For care, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the decorative finish. Simply wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and ensure the bamboo lid is dried immediately if it becomes wet. Regularly check and replace the carbon filters housed within the lid to maintain optimal odour control.
