Overview
Rotating a polypropylene drum on its steel frame mixes scraps and yard waste in each of the two chambers. Sliding doors open the compartments for loading and removing finished compost.
A big drum fits a lot of kitchen and garden waste, and sliding doors avoid heavy lids. Assembly and the per chamber capacity are the open questions, and the dimension figures look odd for the stated capacity.
Who it's for
Gardeners who want to fill one chamber while the other finishes will get the most from two compartments. Anyone with limited space or minimal scraps should look at a smaller bin.
Pros and cons
- Large total capacity
- 360 degree rotation
- Per chamber capacity not given
- Listed dimensions look inconsistent with capacity
- Heavy when full
Performance notes
Rotation mixes the contents and brings air in, and compost speed follows the moisture and balance of greens and browns. A larger load takes more effort to turn once it is full. Sliding doors let finished material come out without lifting the drum.
