Not one person can put it together I’m a one people trying to put together I can put the 4 sides together but the last 2 forget it I’ve been trying all morning now it’s 12:00 and still not together very very disappointed I have another composer that’s about 20 years old and it’s hard for me to mix by hand

I have a patio garden, I manly bought this for soil storage. I mixed in coco coir, potting soil, and store bought compost, added in brown, green, and wood types of compost. I didnt really have much faith that this would work. But its seems to be pretty much all of compost material is gone and the soil looks to be a dark black soil. As for it properly composting and loaded with nutrients , not sure. the bin has some fungus gnats, not sure if they were the main contribution to the depletion of the material. I took weekly temperatures of the bin. Pretty much all the same, without much change. low composting temps. Maybe it worked maybe it didn't. I guess ill see how my plants grow next season with this composted material added.

My newly retired husband has taken up gardening and every single little tomato is his child. Now he wants to make compost for them so I ordered him this composter as it seemed a good size. Well we got the thing and it's a bunch of parts. You've never heard so much swearing as he tried to put it together stating design flaws, etc. He recruited my son and between the two of them it's now built. It seems sturdy and holds alot of waste and doesn't take up a lot of space. I found a sign to hang above it that says, "Trespassers will be Composted". It's all good now.

This composter is nice and sturdy - thankfully I had a wonderful friend put it together for me! It will be used a lot over the years I’m sure. I love the two sides and the fact the openings are larger than some others. It’s a bit sticky to open so I leave the flap a wee bit out so it is easier to pull open.

This is an ingenious design. The six side panels "sort of" slip together at a weird 60° angle with a slight vertical offset. I never did 100% figure out how it worked: some pieces slipped together effortlessly and others I had to fumble with for a minute or two. Once you "learn the trick," (or get lucky) it is Easy to attach adjacent panels. Excessive Force is NOT required! Once the two adjacent panels are aligned just right, they seem to magically assemble with very little force. LARGE END PANELS: The large end panels are supposed to "snap on." I am a strong male but my fingers are soft and slip. It might help to have a man with strong rough hands, like a bricklayer or mechanic, to snap on the end pieces -- but Be Sure he does not Break Anything! Truly excessive force would no doubt Break Something and is a sign You are Doing Something Wrong. NONE of the tabs were loose, and about half snapped in place during initial assembly. I had to rotate each side and vigorously massage the tabs to get the tight ones to finally snap in. THIS IS GOOD, THOUGH, because now the entire assembly is Very Sturdy ... there are Definitely No Loose Connections once you get all tabs snapped in place correctly, lol!The cool rubber gloves, one with long plastic nails for digging in the compost, were a neat flourish. Generally, this was some the highest quality packaging I have ever seen. There were Extra screws and a phillips screw driver. No tools required. I did not use the cotton assembly gloves, but again, this was a nice added flourish indicative of a high quality product.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my husband. He absolutely loves it. The only issue we ran into was while he was putting it together he realized one piece was cracked. I was able to get a replacement, but it was a huge pain to take apart. So, make sure you check all of your pieces for cracks before assembling! It's an awesome composter though and our kids even enjoy feeding our "composty" as they like to call it.

How well the compost bin spins to mix up the contents is the most important feature for me. This bin meets my expectations. I add to the contents and give it a spin without a lot of trouble. As the bin gets fuller, spinning the bin takes a stronger push but it is still easy. It was a little difficult for me to completely snap the end pieces to the side pieces. The seams have to be smooth in order for the doors to easily slide open and close. Make sure the seams are smooth especially the area of the doors. Still I really like this compost bin. It works well. It remains to be seen how quickly the compost will be ready to use as I have both sides working. When the compost is ready on both sides, I will change to keep completed compost in one side and working compost in the other. I recommend this compost bin.

Only time will tell about the results on composting but the unit seems good for my needs. In a month I could only fill one side of it. Now that it is winter it will take some time to work it out but I only need the compost in the Spring. As for the rotating feature it works fine. The unit seems sturdy enough for the weight it is going to carry. It has some plastic lock to keep it in position when you need to have the door up. On assembling it gave me some trouble: as I popped one side in the other would pop out. A bit of coordination need and it would help to have 4 hands to put it together (which I did not have :). All said, it works as expected.

If I were to rate this before putting it together, it would be 1 star. Building it was quite a pain. The panels fought me every step of the way. I thought it would be flimsy. It is actually very sturdy. Happy with the value of this composter. Love that you can lock the champers to keep them from turning while putting stuff in. The walls have a decent sized blade to turn the compost for you too. Also appears to breath well.
