First time composting, I’m very happy with the quality and how easy this tumbler makes the composting process. My 4 year old helps me with rotating, I fill it up like 75 to avoid fast deterioration, the process is actually going really fast with that rate. The first photo is 3 weeks after one tumbler was 75 filled up and you can see there’s dirt starting to form.. Alberto. Clearlake, CA. 2021-02-04 20:20:19

The Compost Wizard Jr. offers all the features of our Good Ideas Compost Wizard in a smaller package. At 7 cubic feet of volume, it can sit discretely out of the way while still offering a decent amount of compost. It comes in two pieces - simply place the drum on the base and start composting. Molded handholds allow for a solid grip while also serving as agitators for the compost in the interior. The unit effortlessly rotates due to its wheeled base, and you can also take the compost bin off the stand and roll the container around the yard wherever you need it. The 12” twist-off lid keeps your compost safely closed and away from rodents and other animals, and each end of the compost bin has plenty of aeration vents. Made with recycled, BPA-Free plastic, there will be no chemicals, toxic or otherwise, leeching into your compost. The black color efficiently absorbs the sun's heat, helping keep your compost in the perfect temperature range of 100-150 degrees F (38-66 C). In ideal conditions, you could see compost in as little as 21 days.

Heavy AF - but in a good way. We were looking for a compost wizard that was self-turning. We were gifted a very nice standing one, but the weight of the compost started breaking it at the seams/openings. Also, you had to turn it with a pitchfork. So, we plunked down for this one. Slightly smaller volume, but so, so worth it. It does not turn easily as it gets full, but, this has a hidden up side. The screw lid is solid, so no animals can get in, but our elderly neighbors (who occasionally can't recognize their house and try to enter ours instead) did. They ruined an entire batch of compost by putting in their meat scraps and other fat waste. So FRUSTRATING! But! Fill this puppy up, and rotate it so the lid is down and nobody but you is going to take the time to roll this monster over and add things to it. So, is it heavy and somewhat of an effort to turn? For an out of shape 40 something - yes. But not so much so that I don't do it every week, and the peace of mind knowing I know exactly what's in my compost is a good feeling.. Annie.

Just put my composter together and I'm very pleased! The containers turn well and overall it seems sturdy. Pieces fit together tightly (i.e. don't think critters will be able to access). The instructions included send you to a website with great photos and easy to follow steps. I built it by myself in about an hour. ASSEMBLY NOTE for arthritic hands: I am a 30 year old female and found that at times, assembly was doable but challenging. Majority of the tumbler is hard plastic with grooves that fit snuggly together. It requires a good bit of hand strength to get some of the pieces to fit. Result is that it seems sturdy and secure but my mom who has arthritis and carpal tunnel in her hands would have needed help. Nothing prohibitive, just something to be prepared for!. Elisabeth.

The Jora Composter simplifies and speeds up the process of making compost. It is a 'continuous-use' dual chamber composter. Dual chambers allow you to keep adding new materials to one compartment while the other matures. Because the unit is insulated and sealed, it converts kitchen waste to compost in 2-8 weeks. The Jora can easily handle daily composting of kitchen scraps for a family of four or more. It is suitable for larger households, small restaurants, B&Bs, schools, and care homes. The Jora Composter will accept organic kitchen | household waste or anything biodegradable, including citrus, meat and bones. After adding waste, it will take about 6 to 8 weeks for each chamber to produce compost. Once both chambers are in operation you should be emptying one chamber every 3 to 4 weeks.

This composter arrived sooner than promised so I was very pleased. It comes flat-packed with about a dozen pieces. I had seen comments about damage in shipping, and though there was some evidence of rough handling, it is double-boxed in 2 layer corrugated board and Bubble Cushion bags for each piece, and there was no damage at all. All parts were nicely finished and went together with stainless steel or nylon fasteners. There is an on-line video to illustrate assembly, but there is a very clear, wordless, one-page instruction sheet, so I haven't seen the video. It took me 1 hour and 47 minutes to assemble it, but more than 2 hours to run the shipping boxes thru my paper shredder to make compost. When you do that, there is very little shipping waste to go to the landfill (I am keeping the Bubble Cushion). Just the packaging tape and 2 pieces of packing foam. I immediately began filling it with grass clippings, the shredded packaging and a little bit of compost as a started. After 3 days the bin is full and temperature is up to 145 deg F. I love it. Pros: Really well designed and well made Cons: The 8 side panels have a bent fin at each end that screws to the octagonal end panels, and those screw holes are a tight fit. So it is hard to start the screws, but they hold very tightly.. Eugene. Manchester, CT. 2015-09-29 23:58:10

The Soil machine pro is a compost tumbler with a wheeled base. The handles provide excellent grip to make turning even easier compared to other models and crank versions. The twist-off lid keeps your compost safely closed off but is easy to remove and even doubles as an extra turning point. The ends feature aeration holes which provide much-needed airflow for the compost batch with the option of drilling more for those who live in areas with low air currents. The Soil Machine's unique geometric shape helps in compost agitation, increasing composting effectiveness. The wheeled base allows for effortless turning and can easily be separated to allow the compost bin to roll freely from place to place. It also collects and stores compost juice from the bin which can be used to help with fertilizing plant roots. The low profile ensures that it stays out of sight and won't be blown over in high winds like competing units. The Soil Machine PRO is made using 100% recycled, BPA-free polyethylene. Just turn the compost tumbler once a week and see the compost in 2-6 weeks. Help keep organic waste out of our landfills by getting a Soil Machine PRO compost tumbler today.

My initial impression is that it appears to be a good composter. However, the directions failed to mention what the hole in the top of the base is for and the other threaded fitting on the side of the base. Am I to assume those are collecting and draining the "tea" (excess moisture) that may drip out of the barrel? As it is still early March and the weather in the northwest hasn't warmed up enough for the composter to actually do its thing, I'll reserve judgement on the actual composting performance. I do like the overall size and ease of turning the barrel to churn the compost.. Anonymous. . 2022-03-11 12:09:33
