Lomi 1 Month Review | The World's Best Composter?

Uh. Pretty much does what normal composting does, except it actually USES more energy. Not sure why everybody jumps on these scams so readily.

[@kenh6096]

It does not produce composite. Have a look at Garden Fundamentals on electronic composters. Anyone pushing such a product is either simply uneducated on the subject or is simply has a vested interest in the product. most of such products are essentially scams.

[@LifesLaboratory]

It dries the food and then minces it. This is not a composter and the product is not soil. It requires additional energy to make this 'not-soil'. Once the product is added to soil, it will then decompose (after rehydrating by pulling water out of the soil). Why not skip these energy wasteful steps and simply get an actual composter? If you lack a yard, get a vermi-composter.

[@recurrenTopology]

Thank you.

[@patman0250]

This is very similar to a composter. Usually composting takes quite a bit more time but it's still achieves its purpose. To not have wasteful things accumulating in the landfill. You can absolutely mix this with any composting soil or even the soil in your yard. Everything in this bucket is completely full of nutrients everything plants need to grow. I wouldn't doubt it if you can grow a plant with just this alone.

[@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403]

So there is a mode where it does turn it into actual soil. It's the "grow mode" and the soil comes out dark black, like actual soil. However, I don't think this is worth it. As you said, you're actually using electricity to run the thing. I saw one review that says you're going to spend on average 14 cents every time it runs. By the time you have enough compost to fill a $7 bag you could just buy from the Home Depot, you most certainly will have spent more than $7 worth of electricity, not to mention the $160 a year you're spending for the charcoal and pellets. You can build a compost bin like I did for $75 and end up with much more compost when you throw your food waste and fall leaves, etc.

[@Squigglydipladocus]

If you actually tried to grow anything using the material that comes out of this "composter," I doubt it would do well. It doesn't compost anything. You're paying for your scraps to get heated up, dried, and ground up. The only breaking down of waste that is happening is that it's being grinded into that fluff with none of the microbial activity required to release the nutrients back into the soil. Not to mention they ask you to subscribe to their monthly refills of their lomi pods and charcoal filters which is a common marketing tactic to keep you spending more after your huge investment. You may as well just use a hairdryer on your scraps and throw them in the food processor. The end result will be the same.

[@FitnessFinance4u]

Sleepy Doge...I guess I'll never know for sure how well it will help things grow, until I actually do it. I'm going to start dumping the compost into my backyard in about a month, after I plant something new, and I'll let you know how it goes.

[@The1stDukeDroklar]

It's anti-eco-friendly. It uses a lot of energy to fry and grind the scraps. It's basically an air fryer/grinder that runs for many hours and does not produce real compost, just dehydrated scraps.

[@literallyanything9811]

Lizzy, let's start at the beginning. A Chinese company made this breadmaker with a modified timer so it can run for up to 12 hrs. The factory polluted the environment to assemble the non biodegradable plastic, rare earth metals electric motors and electronic components. It was shipped to the USA using a diesel powered container ship. A diesel truck delivered it to the customers. Now, you plug it in to use a kWh of electricity per cycle. I'm sure it's the 4 hrs long one. But they recommend the 12 hrs long one in real life. The electricity is coming from a power plant burning fossil fuels (most likely). All this just to dry out your leftover salad! Which is still not compost. So you throw the "dirt" into the trash anyway. Because it's a badly modified breadmaker, it's not meant to be running for 12 hrs. Many people reported that it broke down after a few months. So the device will end up in the landfill.

0:03 "Doing your little part" Is actually worse for the environment than not doing any of this.

It's "eco" the same way a Tesla doesn't use "fossil fuels" but is recharged by coil and nuclear fission. And the batteries are made by open pit strip mining the earth for nonrenewable resources (lithium, cobalt, ect). But for the Hollywood Hill living, need to feel better about themselves "no gas, so good for environmental" mentally having suckers that got scammed. But have enough to not care about the loss or the amount of loss or even the power bill. Than it makes sense, "compost = environmental" but at what cost?

you’re trying be as carbon neutral as possible by not putting food in a land fill where it comes from in the first place? where do you think food comes from? it grows in soil which is located in the ground lololol so in your mind putting food back into the place it came from is causing a problem? could it be that plastic and other toxic junk is causing a problem with the environment? let’s do something mathematical, you have four pound of waste. two pounds food, two pines plastic and other toxic garbage…..when that four pound reaches the land fill, which two pounds is causing the problem for the environment ? now you have four lines of toxic waste, going into the same land fill, it’s all toxic so what’s the solution, what do we do? hey i know how about reducing the toxic waste. sound like a plan? the two pounds of food, and two pines of toxins makes sense now, right. God forbid you throw food in with that clean garbage. That rotted food will destroy our planet. how stupid, and you fell for that

Gino, my food is not grown in a landfill in California. I'm not sure about other states, but that sounds pretty dangerous if it was. According to the EPA "Modern landfills are well-engineered and managed facilities for the disposal of solid waste. Landfills are located, designed, operated and monitored to ensure compliance with federal regulations. They are also designed to protect the environment from contaminants, which may be present in the waste stream." www.epa.gov/landfills/basic-information-about-landfills. Also, with the new law passed in CA, according to the LA Times, "Most (compost) will go to large composting centers or to plants that will convert it into natural gas.", not to landfills. www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-12-26/organic-waste-composting-law-2022-recycling#:~:text=Where%20will%20all%20this%20extra%20food%20waste%20go%3F&text=Most%20will%20go%20to%20large,convert%20it%20into%20natural%20gas. Like I said, maybe your state is different?

It is to reduce the methane in the landfills. Uses less electricity than any other appliance and although it is not fertilizer it can be put in the trash or composter and finish decomposing there no methane

Return before you unwrap it and maybe you’ll get your money back…otherwise you will be sorry 😞

@@chrisvig123 I am actually extremely happy with my Lomi. Works exactly as it states, I no longer have a smelly bag of garbage waiting to go out, and I have not even one complaint.

We live in CA too so we're in the same boat. Looking for alternatives to composting and found your review. Glad I discovered your channel - I look forward to watching some of your other fitness videos.

Do you have a garbage disposal? If you don't have a septic system, grind your food waste in it. Don't waste your money on this thing.

[@ABC-rg4li]

It's essentially a bread maker! Just get a 50$ bread maker
