Recolte Compact Food Waste Disposer

It is said that garbage disposal in Japan is one of the hardest aspects of everyday life. Garbage is supposed to be collected twice a week but depending on the type, that can vary from once a week to once a month or even only pickup by special arrangement. And of course, the biggest problem is organic garbage, because after a couple of days it starts decomposing, and this is where the Recolte Compact Food Waste Disposer becomes the only thing standing between you and a smelly apartment! At first look, this is just a plain 22 x 33 x 27.1 cm (8.7 x 13 x 10.7") box. The word "nondescript" is the first that comes to mind. But with an activated carbon-deodorizing filter and featuring a combination of slicer and dryer, the Recolte Compact Food Waste Disposer turns your organic garbage into dry dust in a few hours. More specifically, about 4.5 hours for 300g (10.6 oz) and about 5.5 hours for 750 g (26.5 oz). After that, you can dispose it as regular garbage or use it as compost for your garden or potted plants, solving the problem of organic garbage disposal in the most hygienic way!
