[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have always loved to compost my leftover healthy foods and use it in my plants and garden. So this product is perfect for me. It does take up to 9 hours to process one bucket full of honeydew but the outcome is a dried odorless almost like dirt. As you can see in my photo. I’m currently working on my second batch which will be all of my rotten zucchini. It seems to be processing much faster and I think it’s because it was softer than the honeydew. I am going to sprinkle this into my plants and hope that it helps with the nutrients that they need.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little intimated by this machine at first, however was excited to make my own compost. At first I didn’t think it would hold as much scraps, I was quite surprised and not only the amount, but they types of scrapes I could throw in. I have used a few times now and it can’t be any easier, from taking out of the box and setting up to the first use. I store mine in my garage because I thought it would emit orders, but it has 0 scents coming fine it. I can’t wait to continue to make compost for my plants and flowers. Very happy and surprised with how easy it was to use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Vitamix food recycler. I often look for ways to be more environmentally friendly, and this small appliance does a great job helping me with these efforts. The appliance looks good on my countertop and doesn’t take up a lot of space. It was packed extremely well when it arrived in great condition and undamaged. It was very easy to set up and follow the instructions. The composting bin is very small and is easy to pull out of the machine in order to dump the compost in my flowers for use as a fertilizer or soil conditioner. The machine works overnight or throughout the day if you have time to set it throughout the day and makes compost out of everyday table scraps or anything that I have expiring in the refrigerator. I really think this is a fantastic addition to my kitchen and a great way to turn table scraps into a usable product for my flowers. Honestly, my flowers have never looked better and I find it easy to just scratch this Compost into the dirt around them. This is a great addition to my kitchen. I have used it several times in the past few weeks, and I don’t notice any smell in the compost at all. I typically remove it fairly quickly after processing to use in my flowerbeds, but I have not noticed a smell, which is important since the appliance is located in the kitchen. I’m very happy with this item an extremely glad it has a strong name like Vitamix behind it.
