Comments about Compost Cover:

This sturdy cover fits tightly over the four-sided wire frame. Easy to open and close velcro top is three-sided for easy access. I have two of them, one several years old with no signs of wear. Keeps compost in a small urban garden of sight. My mother juices oranges every day, and sometimes the smell of oranges escapes the compost, but other than that, the cover seems to maintain an odor-free mix.

Comments about Compost Cover:

This cover keeps the contents of the bin from sight and keeps the squirrels from digging at the sides and around the bottom and yet lets moisture in and helps the compost to cook.

This completes the ensemble

Comments about Compost Cover:

The sale price of this item was an incentive to purchase it along with the wire bin. The construction and material of the product is excellent. The top panel (lid) collects rain water and can seal on 3 sides with heavy-duty velcro strips, or the top panel can be left open and draped over the edge of the bin by the fourth side which is attached permanently. It also has grommeted fabric tie-downs at two bottom corners for stability.

Great item!

Comments about Compost Cover:

I ordered this Compost Cover believing it would fit my small compost bin. However, it's a little large but has worked so well to really heat things up and keep the rain out. It's easily slipped on and off.
