80 Gallon(300 L) Compost Bin

I bought one of these compost bins to replace two slightly larger wood-slat bins that had deteriorated after a couple of decades of use. I liked this one so much that I bought a second one. The bin is easy to assemble, although it takes a few minutes to understand how to bend the lid slightly to attach the lid. These are also better than the previous bins in that they retain heat that's generated. The one disadvantage is that they don't naturally get rain water. The lid stays open upright (an advantage for adding to the bin), but readily falls down to cover the bin with a moderate wind or possibly squirrel activity. Instead of rigging up a prop of some sort, I just try to remember to water the pile periodically.

I would highly recommend this composter. The box was light enough that I could handle it on my own. The entire unit snaps into place very easily and it’s light enough to be able to move it. The bottom is open, so it’s almost a mobile unit. Even though it is light, it’s sturdy enough to withstand storms and wind, and keeps the majority of the rain water out. This product is perfect for a small to medium yard where you are composting your grass clippings/weed waste and kitchen scraps. It blended easily into my fence and flowerbed, and there is zero odor.

Bought this to make my own organic compost from my own organic garden waste. "Hot composting" is much faster and more effective than just making a pile on the ground. Anywho, set-up was pretty easy. The panels literally snap together. I did have to really force a few of the snaps but no issues from doing so. It rotates easily and holds a lot more than I really thought it would. I assembled it myself out in the yard after sunset. Cons 1) there are 4 airholes on each panel. The bugs think these are secret entrances just for them, namely fireants. Now they're not a problem in and of themselves except for the nests and the biting! So just make sure your composted stays in an otherwise unused/unaccessed spot. 2) the "locks" are just little plastic forks that flip up/out into the side panel of the composter. When it's very full or wet, it's heavy and the weight (combined with summer heat) really does a number on these locks. I don't imagine them lasting more than 2 seasons. I help relieve the pressure by trying to balance the contents so the lock is already near the hole before o engage it. 3) the panels have 3 recessed sections from the outside. These are constantly pooling with water and attracting mosquitos (they face directly up when the lock is engaged). I drilled a small hole in each one (oh yay, more ant holes! Haha) 4) There isn't really enough space below to get the compost out easily. My solution is to build a frame for it to sit on so it's more elevated (and maybe that will help with the ants getting in it too?) All that said, I still love it!

We love this compost bin! We have it for a little over a month and we like what we saw. It wasn't difficult to set it up. My husband installed it rather quickly. We filled it up in the first two weeks after our spring mowing. It smells so you would like to find a place where far away from people. Our compost just turn all black this week and I can't wait to use these home made rich soil! I was hesitated at first, but it works so well. It holds more thing than it looks and it's easy to spin it. There are locks on both side so you can lock-in the compost bin when it's on use. I wish we got it earlier.

For a cheap composter, this is a good buy. However, it is cheap and somewhat difficult to put together. I would spend the extra money and get a better one. I will use it until it breaks but wouldn’t buy it again.

Well -designed bin that makes home composting easy and efficient. Its dual rotating chambers allow for continuous composting, and the snap-together assembly is convenient—though it does take a bit of muscle. Overall, it’s a great option for gardeners looking for a cleaner, low-maintenance composting solution.

I can't imagine something being easier to assemble. It took less than 10 minutes...literally. Everything about this compost bin is 5 stars; price, quality/durability, ease of assembly, even the appearance. I judge the durability based on the thickness of the plastic, which is much stronger than I thought it would be. So for me, it's actually better than expected. There is no bottom, which is good because we want worms to have access to the compost. The lid can be locked down tight or just semi-tight, which my wife prefers, so that she can easily open to add compost materials. We absolutely love it! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to others.

Lightweight, easy to put together and blends in with my landscaping. . So far I’ve just filled it with yard clippings and waste , so I’m going to have to add other compost material in and possibly enzymes to get it going. I think it’s a good value for the money.
