I love my ComposTumbler! A couple of turns each day and it's good to go. It's so much fun watching my kitchen scraps disappear into rich compost.

I bought one of these about 4 years ago and I added a second one last year. We have large gardens with lots of trimmings and clippings that pile up annoyingly. My primary concern is to keep my compost pile from just growing and growing, to the point where it's an eyesore. These tumblers solve that problem nicely. By the end of the weekend, the bin is stuffed full after all my garden work. By the next weekend, the material has broken down enough that the bin is only 1/3 full and I can stuff it full again. I can do this for many weekends in a row. But then you do have to leave it alone and stop adding new stuff so it can digest the rest of the way. I add blood meal and I keep it wet, and it goes pretty quickly to provide finished compost.

The Compact Compost Tumbler was so easy to put together. In fact, I was able to do it without help from my husband. It does cost a lot more than others I found, but I can tell already that it will last longer. I can't wait to get started.

It really does make quality compost in about 2 weeks…..That is if it lasts a full season. Very flimsy construction. I imagine that is for ease of assembly. I used extra hardware to strengthen the unit and substituted Stainless steel for the plated stuff. It lasted 4 batches when the drive sprocket exploded….with a full tank. Have to empty the unit first then disassemble….only if I can acquire a new sprocket and drive unit. JUST TOO MUCH TROUBLE FOR $400.00.!!
