Before GEME, I had a different device, it didn't filter the smells effectively and broke soon after. In contrast, the GEME has been awesome. I am really pleased with it.
I REALLY love this product. We have used it a lot and look forward to seeing the garden this year, which we have supplemented with GEME compost!
We have ordered a second one. Our family cannot live without this machine.
This method is amazing. I used to have an outdoor compost. This is such a great upgrade.
We have used the compost now to fertilize our fruit plants and trees earlier this season, and there was definitely an explosion of growth after that.
I never imagined anything could break down the matter so quickly. And all of those concerns about smelly? I have no such problem.
Yesterday I put mozzarella balls, shredded carrots, and eggshells — gone like magic.
I am very impressed with the efficiency of the composter and have been telling and showing it to many people.
This composter has changed my kitchen habits for the better.
I was very surprised to see the waste from dinner was almost completely composted by this morning.
I bought the GEME composter on Amazon to replace my two Reencles. It can handle about 2 kg comfortably — way better than what I had before.
I am very satisfied with the GEME. The build quality is excellent and it runs so quietly you barely notice it.
I am living in the US and really like my GEME. I would love to order another one for my sister in Australia.
We have been using GEME Terra 2 for over 6 months now and it has completely eliminated our kitchen waste problem. No smell, no fruit flies, and our garden has never looked better. The compost it produces is rich and earthy — our tomatoes love it!
As an engineer, I was very skeptical about an indoor composter. But GEME Terra 2 is genuinely well-engineered. The aerobic process means zero odor, and the continuous feed design means I just add scraps daily. The biology behind it is fascinating and effective.
We live in an apartment with no outdoor space, so traditional composting was never an option. GEME has been a revelation — it sits quietly in our kitchen, handles all our food scraps, and the output goes straight to our balcony planters.
I have had my GEME for 8 months now and it is still running perfectly. The Kobold microbes are the real deal — you can literally see the food breaking down day by day.
Overall great product. I gave 4 stars only because the initial setup took a bit of reading, but once it was going, it has been flawless. My roses have never bloomed like this.
With three kids we produce a lot of food waste. GEME handles it all without complaint. The kids love watching the process and it has sparked great conversations about sustainability.
I was tired of my Lomi just dehydrating waste — it was essentially a very expensive dryer. GEME actually creates real compost. Night and day difference.
The setup video on YouTube was super helpful. Had it running within 30 minutes of unboxing. Added food scraps the next day and haven't looked back since.
After a full year of daily use, I can confidently say this is one of the best purchases I have ever made for my home. Zero maintenance issues, consistent output, and my vegetable garden is thriving.
I was nervous about the price at first, but considering I was spending money on garbage bags, odor sprays, and city compost service fees, GEME has already paid for itself.
Really impressed with the science behind this. The only minor issue is it is a bit large for my small kitchen, but I made room because it is worth it. Decomposition speed is incredible.
I bought this as a gift for my mom who gardens. She calls me every week to tell me about her new compost batch. Best gift I have ever given.
As someone who lives in a city with mandatory composting laws, GEME saves me from dealing with smelly collection bins. Everything stays indoors, odor-free, and turns into actual usable soil.
The auto-lid and foot sensor on the Terra 2 are such thoughtful touches. You can tell the engineers really thought about the daily user experience. Adding scraps is effortless.
I have tested this with everything: meat, dairy, citrus, onions — all the things people say you should not compost. GEME handles it all. The Kobold system is incredibly robust.
My husband was convinced this would stink up the house. Three months later he is the one bragging about it to guests. The permanent metal-ion filter really works — no carbon cartridge replacements needed.
Good machine overall. The compost quality is excellent. My only suggestion would be a larger capacity model for bigger families. We fill it up faster than expected because we cook a lot.
I use the output on my houseplants, balcony herbs, and community garden plot. Everything is greener, fuller, and healthier. This is what real composting should look like.
At 68, I wanted a composter that does not require heavy lifting or turning. GEME does all the work — I just feed it scraps and harvest beautiful compost every couple months. Perfect for seniors.
I had a Reencle before this and it kept breaking down. GEME has been running non-stop for 4 months without a single error code. The build quality is on another level.
The customer support team is fantastic. I had a question about initial Kobold activation and they responded within hours with a detailed video guide. Rare to see this level of care these days.
I live in a cold climate and was worried about performance in winter. GEME keeps the chamber at the right temperature regardless — it works just as well at -10°C outside as it does in summer.
Very happy after 2 months of use. The learning curve was small — just make sure you drain wet waste and cut up large pieces. Once you have the rhythm, it is set and forget.
Our family of 5 cooks every meal at home. GEME takes all our scraps — peels, cores, leftovers, coffee grounds, even chicken bones. Nothing goes to the landfill anymore. Feels amazing.
I am an environmental science teacher and I brought my GEME output to class for soil testing. The microbial activity levels were outstanding. This is legitimate aerobic decomposition, not drying.
Three neighbors have bought GEME after seeing mine in action. It is become a little community of composters on our street. We even trade different compost batches for different plants.
The electricity usage is minimal — I checked my bill before and after getting GEME and barely noticed a difference. For something that runs 24/7, that is impressive engineering.
I was worried about the noise because our kitchen is open-plan. GEME is surprisingly quiet — about the same as a refrigerator hum. Never bothers us during dinner or when watching TV.
Great composter. I deducted one star only because I wish the app had more features for tracking decomposition progress. The hardware itself is 5-star quality though.
GEME has transformed my balcony garden. I mix the compost with potting soil and my herbs, tomatoes, and peppers have never been more productive. The circle of food waste to food is so satisfying.
Ordered from Germany, arrived in perfect condition with EU plug. Been running for 6 months, no issues whatsoever. The international shipping and voltage support are well handled.
