Comments about Single Bin Wire Composter:
I bought several of these bins a few years ago when the connectors to attach the wire sides of the bins were metal spirals. They were easy to use, sturdy and a very elegant way to attach the bin sides. I was very disappointed by my more recent purchases to see that the connectors are now cheap plastic clips that do not hold up well to the elements and are very difficult to use to attach the wire sides. In fact as I was putting one connector on, it broke. PLEASE, bring back the metal spirals! I would happily purchase the spirals, just so I can keep using my wire bins. Otherwise, I love these bins for putting all the dead vegetable plants from my garden at the end of the season. In the spring I pile into the bins all of the sod (grass/soil clods) that I remove from the edges of my garden beds and the weeds that I dig out of the beds in preparation for planting. The following year when the contents has decomposed I remove one side of the bin to shovel out the compost.

Comments about Single Bin Wire Composter:
The ideal size and simple aeration, as well as the easy assembly, make this a great compost bin for leaves, grass clippings, and weeds. It heats up better than my other bins (thanks to its girth and access to plenty of air) and creates compost much faster. But I live in the city and can't add kitchen scraps to an open bin like this -- use a closed bin for those and keep this one mostly for leaves and garden waste.

Comments about Single Bin Wire Composter:
Good value for the price but a little flimsy and each time you want to turn the pile you must undo the plastic clips that hold it together.

Comments about Single Bin Wire Composter:
looks nice in the yard, easy to add compost materials and stir. hard to access composted material at bottom; wish their was a gate to open when needed. The holes are are too big but I heeded advice from other reviewer and added mesh to inside and works great! I also added extra reinforcement ties to corners to keep more stable. I am not handy and building a compost unit wasn't right for me and this was a great product for me.
