Comments From the Product Testers:
"Easy to assemble. Sturdy. Easy to put scraps etc into and the best feature - easy to turn and mix. I love this composter! Doesn't look like a 'sore spot' in the yard. Thanks for the opportunity to test this wonderful product."
Cindy F., West Harrison, IN
"My husband is a builder, and he was very impressed with how sturdy and well-built it was. I loved the ease of using it and not having to turn it at all with a fork. I do have a 3 bin composter that is much more work."
Judith A Prange, Elkhart Lake, WI
"Had usable compost in four weeks. Container size was more than adequate!"
Margaret Charles, Lincoln, MO
"I can't believe how fast the grass clippings broke down into compost. I have always had compost piles that needed turning and it took so long."
Alexandri Berry, Elko, MN
"A composter is much easier and cleaner than building a box and having it on the ground."
Charlotte Smith, Marion, IN
"Like the idea that both ends open to add things to it. So easy to turn when ever walk by and can be placed any where ground or concrete."
Laura Knight, Baton Rouge, LA
"This product was easy to assemble. It took 20 minutes. The compact size and vertical rotation feature makes it easy to store in small areas. The 4 week composting time makes it convenient to start a new mulch cycle every time the lawn is mowed. The spin feature makes it easy to mix the contents and thus speeds up the composting process."
Karen Truglio, Blackstone, MA
"Works quick, holds a lot, doesn't take up much space. Easy to open and close."
Alison Urbanek, Kill Devil Hill, NC
