The Joseph Joseph Totem Max excels in practical waste management for everyday household use. Its 60-litre capacity, split into two 30-litre sections, effortlessly handles a family's general waste and recycling needs without appearing bulky. For example, the top compartment can be designated for non-recyclable rubbish, while the bottom drawer neatly stores mixed recyclables like plastics, glass, and paper. The integrated carbon filter proves highly effective in preventing common kitchen odours, especially useful for food waste. The removable 3-litre food waste caddy is a standout feature, allowing users to collect organic scraps directly on the worktop during meal prep and then easily transfer them to the main bin or a compost system. Breather vents in the inner buckets genuinely simplify liner changes, eliminating the struggle often associated with full bins. The unit's sleek, stone-coloured design ensures it blends seamlessly into contemporary kitchen environments, offering a functional yet aesthetically pleasing solution to household waste.
Your Joseph Joseph Totem Max Waste Separation Unit arrives pre-assembled. Simply choose its location in your kitchen. Ensure the activated carbon filter is correctly seated in the lid compartment.
Bin Liners: For the best fit and performance, use Joseph Joseph Intelligent Waste bin liners IW2 (for the 30-litre compartments) and IW6 (if using a liner in the 3-litre food waste caddy). Standard liners of appropriate size may also be used, but custom-fit liners ensure a snug fit and prevent slipping.
Food Waste Caddy: The 3-litre caddy can be placed in either the top 30-litre compartment, the bottom 30-litre drawer, or independently on your kitchen worktop.
Cleaning: The powder-coated exterior can be easily cleaned with a soft, damp cloth and mild household detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scourers. The removable inner buckets should be regularly washed with warm soapy water to maintain hygiene.
Odour Filter: The activated carbon filter typically needs to be replaced every 3 months to maintain optimal odour control. Check the filter regularly and replace it if odours persist or if it appears saturated. Replacements are available separately from Joseph Joseph.
General Maintenance: Ensure breather vents in the inner buckets remain clear of debris to facilitate easy liner removal.
