Garden Trading 3.5L Compost Bucket Crafted in Powder Coated Steel | H22 X W25 X D20cm

The bin unfortunately arrived with a cracked inner bucket. . I could not be supplied with a replacement inner bin . Therefore it is useless product.

Compostable waste, but much too small, easy to clean but not value for money

Good design, easy to clean.Wire handle could be better fixed.Replacing one I had had for about 6 years.

Great

Have been looking for ages for a smart looking practical compost bin and this one ticks all the boxes. The inner bin which is easy to; lift out, carry, empty and clean. Like the outer bin colour and that the printed word ‘compost’ avoids being asked “what’s that container for?”

This was recommended to me by my niece. It has a bucket inside, this makes the emptying easier and also means that the green bag isn’t seen hence looks so much better. This bucket is so much more attractive than my old grey plastic original one.

Item bought Dec 2010.I had originally rated and published this as 5 star item, see later note. This is better built than my old bucket, which cost £12.99, had no liner and rusted through the lid and the base after 12 months. This has a plastic liner bucket and a sealed lid that is lined and stops the nasty niffs. One slightly irritating drawback - as its a bigger bin the handle would be very much improved by being sturdier in its fixing to on the inner bucket, if the bucket is full - which is the general idea - the handle can and does detach from the plastic inner bucket, picture - you have handle in hand, compost bucket on floor along with compost materiel and smelly splashes on clothes. Have tweaked the handle and it seems more secure it had better be.. Item stamped Garden Trading on base. later note. After 6 months this item is rusted on lid and at base of bucket, vacuum seal has come adrift, bucket handle has corroded and still comes adrift, going off to Harwdware store to get robust compost bucket that I can evaluate and test for robustness. This item very disappointing, not worth the money and now just holds chicken grit in the shed. . Not only reviewer to find this product expensive and short lived if bought late 2010 early 2011 and applies to many of the colours if you look at reviews. Shame as its a looker.

Looks nice, and does a good job. However reason it didn't give it a 5 is its a fit smaller then I thought, so comport bags i buy are slightly to large for it. Might not use them in it in the future and just wash removable bin bit and wash. however looks nice so would recommend.
