Product Insights
Round Carbon Filters For Compost Bin Set Of 4 from Simons Maison at $9.50 provides a year's supply of activated carbon filters that completely trap compost odors, keeping the bin smell-free until opened; however, this effective odor masking can lead to surprise smell bursts when the bin is opened after being forgotten, and filter life is shortened by moisture and trimming to fit non-standard bins, requiring replacement every three months or upon odor breakthrough, with draining wet scraps maximizing longevity.
Verified claims
- Odor suppression
- Designed to control compost-bin odors; several buyers report no smell until the lid is opened.
- Lifespan
- Filter life shortened by moisture and trimming; odor breakthrough signals replacement.
- Year supply
- Most standard countertop compost bins require one filter at a time, so the set of 4 covers one year of filter changes at the 3-month interval — about CA$9.50 for a year's supply.
- Material
- Charcoal filters use activated carbon, which adsorbs odors orders better than standard charcoal.
- Per-filter cost
- Set of 4 covers one year's replacements at about $2.38 per filter.
- Filter longevity
- Draining wet scraps and replacing only when odors break through maximize filter life.
- Trimming impact
- Trimming to fit non-standard bins may shorten filter life below three months.
- Odor masking
- Buyers report that the filter's odor elimination is so thorough that they often forget to empty the bin, leading to a surprise smell upon opening.
- Gifting
- Owners purchase extra sets as kitchen gifts for fellow composters.
- Replacement supply
- Set of 4 delivers a year's supply, with replacements consistently available.
- Fit
- 5.75 filters fit most bins; trimming fits odd sizes but shortens life.
- Replacement guidance
- Strictly disposable and should not be washed or reused; replace every 3 months or on odor breakthrough; draining wet scraps extends life.
- Activated carbon
- The filters are made with activated charcoal, which absorbs odors.
- Compatibility
- Round 5.75-inch (14.5 cm) diameter replacement filters for the Simons Maison enamelled metal compost bin; they can also be trimmed to fit most standard round compost pails, though there is no fixed model list beyond the Simons Maison bin.
- Fragrance and dyes
- The filters are unscented, plain charcoal with no added fragrance or dye; they work by adsorbing odor molecules rather than masking them.
- Installation
- On most pails these flat discs sit in a vented compartment built into the lid, often a removable plastic holder with slots; the matching Simons Maison bin uses a detachable fitting that comes out for washing. If the lid has only a plain vent hole, it needs a separate holder or a lid designed to accept a round filter.

Keeping a countertop compost bin odor-free while you cook
These round carbon filters sit in a countertop compost bin to trap smells, so the bin can stay near your food-prep area without making the kitchen unpleasant — including in hot, un-air-conditioned spaces during summer, where the activated carbon reportedly doesn't degrade. One caveat from reviewers: the filter works so well that a full bin can go unnoticed, and opening the lid after several days without emptying can release a strong, concentrated odor.[1]
Odor-free countertop composting that helps keep fruit flies away
Use these carbon filters in your countertop compost bin so it can sit right where you prep food without spreading odors. According to an analysis of customer reviews, the activated carbon traps smells completely, and reviewers report this keeping kitchens fresh and fruit-fly-free, even during summer heat or stretches between emptying the bin.[1]
Keeping a compost bin going with fresh replacement filters
These round carbon filters are made as replacements for compost bins, so you can swap in a fresh filter when the old one wears out instead of replacing the whole bin. The merchant recommends changing the filter every 3 months or as needed, and the set of 4 covers multiple swaps. According to customer review analysis, having replacement filters readily available helps the bin stay functional long-term.[1]
Replacement carbon filters for round kitchen compost bins
These round carbon filters are designed for round compost bins and, based on customer reviews, fit the maker's bins as well as many other round, off-brand models. Some users found the filters slightly oversized out of the box and trimmed them a little for a flush fit.[1]

Fonctionnent trop bien...
Filtres très efficaces, trop efficaces même. Il est facile d'oublier de vider la poubelle à compost pendant quelques jours, et il n'y a pas d'odeur dans la cuisine. Mais lorsque vous ouvrez le couvercle, attention !

Fait bien le travail
Fit perfectly
They are as advertised
Great to deal with the folks at Simons. Always very helpful..
The carbon filters help keep odor levels down during our heat domes of the summer. Great to have a compost bin that has this feature. Have bought three compost bins and multiple filters and given the things out as kitchen gifts. Now we are enveloped in Wild Fire Smoke so will only smell this for the next two months.
