Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Easy to use and really efficient. Lovin it. Nice medium sized composter. Batches of compost take a few weeks and it's a lot easier and cleaner than an old-school compost pile.

Cons

The qc on my recently purchased back porch tumbler is, to be polite, lacking. The panels that are to be attached by screws to the end caps are poorly molded. Metal screws easily rust and bend.

The handle diameter is too short for this to happen! The frame pieces that are meant to accept the axle were poorly drilled. Had to drill holes to finish the assembly. Missing all the hardware - nuts, bolts, screws, etc.

I am disappointed in the life span of this bin. A total disappointment. This composter is not worth the money, it's not worth anything.
