Exaco Trading Aerobin 400 Insulated Composter and Self Aeration System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This composter seems well constructed and sturdy and I was impressed with its large capacity. The assembly instructions were clear and was easy for me to put together by myself in less than 15 minutes. I picked it specifically because I need a composter that I could put directly on my large concrete patio. The Aerobin has a plastic bottom and is designed for use on paved areas, unlike most other composters I've found which have an open bottom designed to put on soil. I haven't had it long enough to judge how well it produces compost, but it comes with very detailed and helpful instructions for its use.

ComposTumbler 01001 Original 22-Cubic-Foot Galvanized Metal Compost Bin Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had one of these for 11 years now. I am about to have to take it apart and replace the door and door frame, as it is finally rusting out. It probably can turn a mixture of grass clippings, manure, and sawdust to compost in 2 weeks if you feed all the stuff through a shredder to break them up and mix them and the outside temperature is high. In practice I feed it grass clippings, mulched garden waste and leaves (with the mower), sawdust, and kitchen compost on a continuous basis. During peak growing season I probably get 2 months before it is full to overflowing with mostly composted material. I then empty 4 to 5 wheelbarrows of material into a stationary composter, where I let it age until the next growing season. The material from the tumbler is well mixed. Turning it is relatively easy as long as there is not too much snow and ice on it, which jams the gears. We are happy with it, but you have to have realistic expectations. If you are going to feed it cedar and brush trimmings, it is going to take much longer.

The Original ComposTumbler was developed as a hot composter for faster decomposition of materials. The aerator/drainage units on the doors of the chamber, along with the screened end caps allow a constant flow of air, so your compost won't stink! Turning the drum is easy because of it's gear driven, so it won't slip. The drum of the composter holds 18 bushels, or about 180 gallons of material and sits 27 inches off the ground, so it won't leak into the ground or be bothered by animals. Assembly required. Composter measures 68 inches high x 50 inches wide x 40 inches deep. 5 year manufacturer warranty.

ComposTumbler 02001 Compact 12-Cubic-Foot Galvanized Metal Compost Bin Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well, I'm on my 2nd batch of compost now. Adjusted the recipe a little bit for this one (more saw dust - less newspaper)
Pros: The tumbler blends into your yard. It really does work that fast. I had a 20 degree change in the core temperature from yesterday to today. In less than 2 weeks I had compost that I put on my garden and I also got alot of compost tea to use. It's easy to spin the tumbler.
Cons: It's not so bad when you're filling the tumbler (you have to FILL it to get it to work within 2 weeks) but when it's time to get it out it's a bit of a pain. the height is not good for dumping so you have to use a shovel. next time we're going to try dumping into a concrete mixing tray.
the tomatoes and peppers and zucchini were very happy. i think i hit the spagetti squash with too much tea though. i dont think i diluted it enough
this item is expensive but if you're serious about composting it really does the job. easy to assemble. (more plastic than i was expecting but it seems like it will last if you take care of it)
