Broan-NuTone Trash Compactor

This model is versatile and can be installed either way. It works perfectly as a built-in unit under your counter or as a freestanding appliance if you prefer more flexibility in your kitchen layout.

The compactor features a 6-to-1 compaction ratio, meaning it can reduce your trash volume by up to 83%. This significantly minimizes the number of trips you need to make to the curb each week.

Yes, safety is a priority. The unit includes a child-lock mechanism with a removable key, ensuring that the compactor cannot be operated by children when the key is stored away.

The door features a 170-degree hinge, which allows it to open wide enough for convenient access. Additionally, the door is reversible, so you can configure it to swing in the direction that best fits your kitchen's workflow.

It is designed for easy unloading. The unit uses full-extension ball-bearing drawer slides, which allow the drawer to pull out completely so you can access the bag without struggling against the cabinet frame.

The unit measures 14-7/8 inches wide, 21-1/2 inches deep, and 34-1/8 inches high. It is designed to fit into standard 15-inch wide cabinet openings, but you should measure your specific space carefully before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.
