Single Bin Wire Composter

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.

I use it for mulching flower beds. Good for the price. It would be swell if it had metal clips and one could open one side to remove the leaf mulch when it's ready. I would recommend it with reservations.

Excellent for composting leaves and other garden leftovers. Hold more than you would think. I am going to buy a second!

I have used a triple bin composter for ( I'm not sure how many) years and it has been very sturdy. The top frame on one panel has split, but it is still useable. I am ordering a single bin because I have had to rearrange my yard to accommodate a swing set. I have to split it into two sections with one bin standing alone, and I don't have enough panels to do that.

I gave it 4 stars because I find that the holes in the mesh are too large and let a lot of stuff fall out. Others don't seem to mind this. But I have lined it with a wire mesh--I think it is worth the trouble for the price and long life. The coils that came with my original set were a pain to wind on and off, but are great as hinges. So on the panels I want to open, I use plastic cable fasteners and cut and replace them when I open the panel. I especially like that you can open one whole panel for full access to the finished product. No putting a shovel through a hole at the bottom.

I considered other types of composters this time around, but I came back to this one as the best for durability, ease of use, and value.

This is very well made and easy to set up. I use it for compost overflow from my tumbler. Its perfect for that. The only problem is the leakage at the bottom. It would be nice if the bottom few inches had smaller holes.

Just getting started with composting; the Gardener's Supply staff member with whom I spoke, seems to have steered me in the right direction. The unit holds more than I thought it would; pleasant surprise!

I purchased my first single bin wire composter for an estate sale property I recenty closed on. The landscaping had been neglected since 2010. Setting up the wire bin was a breeze. After a weekend spent cleaning up my landscaping, I filled the bin to capacity and purchased another wire bin, which I connected to the first one. That was April of this year. Most of the matter in the 1st bin has broken down. I also throw food scraps from my kitchen counter composter as well as newspapers, toilet paper rolls etc into the bins. Initially I wanted a fancier composter but due to my limited budget I purchased the wire bins. I am very glad I did. I love these things and will continue to buy more, if necessary. I also highly recommend these bins if you're on a budget like me.

I use this to compost leaves, brush and grass clippings. It works really well, hold a lot and is easy to use.
