Great for anyone with limited counter space, this odor-minimizing stainless steel compost caddy from simplehuman attaches to a magnetic dock that hangs at the side of a rectangular or slim liner rim trash can. You can detach it for use on your kitchen counter, too. The soft-seal lid allows food scraps to breathe, keeping odor under control and pests away. The plastic inner bucket is removable, so it's easy to dump out scraps or clean. The caddy's surface is protected by an invisible fingerprint-proof coating that is also infused with Agion®, an EPA-registered antimicrobial that inhibits the growth of bacteria, fungi, mold and mildew. A 30-pack of Code Z custom-fit compostable liners comes with the bin — the liners fit the caddy perfectly and can be thrown out along with your food scraps since they decompose fully.

If you want a sleek and unassuming bin for your countertop, look no further than this one from Bamboozle, available in graphite, white and terracotta. The bin also comes with two dishwasher-safe odor filters.

The bin holds about 3.5 quarts and comes with two filters.
