Been using one of these on my last few sessions and I'm pretty pleased with it
Picked it up off the 'bay and so far its been great. A very simple idea but its been happily consuming bits of braid, old leader fc and the snippets of line left over when I trim off my tag ends.So far nothing has escaped
I used to try to stuff old braid and leader into ziplock bags or pockets but it always seemed to escape and it used to bother me that I was leaving fc in the environment. The stuff just stays around forever. No matter how careful I was I'd lose a bit here and a bit there. But no more - this little gizmo has been happily gobbling up everything. Very easy to use once you get used to it (first few goes its like trying to push an oyster into a slot machine) but eventually got the hang of feeding it in.
I've attached mine to my fishing backpack so it goes where I go and no more waste line left anywhere - in fact its even gobbled the waste of others where I've come across it. It comes apart and you just use scissors to clean the line off the roller into the bin for environmentally friendly disposal. All too easy really.
They should bump the fishing licence up and give one of these free to every fisho.

Re: Monomaster
I usually throw the discards into a pocket...it then gets forgotten and finds it way into my washing machine. If I'm at my car when rigging up...the discards find there way onto the car floor or boot...where they stays! How does this thing work...is it just a storage device where the rubbish is shoved in or does it handle it in some other way.

You just feed the line into the slot and twist the spindle. It pulls the line in and wraps it around the brush-like thingy. When you want to empty you just pop it open and cut the line off the brush thingy into the bin.
Here's a current picture of mine. As you can see the lines wrapped and contained within.
So yeah just easy storage until you can empty it into the household rubbish
