Safety Warning Always use gloves when handling compost materials to protect against sharp objects and harmful microorganisms. Keep the compost bin clean and well-ventilated to prevent the buildup of harmful gases. Do not compost meat, dairy, or diseased plants to avoid attracting pests. Always follow local regulations for composting. Review: It’s a basic tumbler with two chambers so you can start your compost at different times. To be honest, composting in the ground by burying the scraps works faster for me but I don’t have space in the garden to bury anything anymore. I don’t know how resistant the plastic to UV since I cover the whole thing all the time anyway. It also helps with keeping the compost warm. It comes in an unassuming flat box and the online instructions were easy to follow. I was able to put it together in less than half hour. The turning mechanism is smooth. Even at full capacity, it’s easy to turn the chambers to tumble the contains. The flaps aren’t easy to open so small children or animals wouldn’t be able to open them. I have no use for the lock mechanism that prevents the chambers from rolling but I tried it and it works. The holes in the chambers allow for air circulation but it also means that the compost juices will leak out. I put it on a patch of soil anyway so it’s not a problem for me but if you’ll do this on a patio or a balcony, put something under to catch the liquid. If you’re new to composting, just don’t forget to add some browns (cardboard, packing paper, dried grass or leaves) in there to prevent any smell. Review: Ordered this as it seemed to be a pretty good size. It's smaller than I wanted BUT, the 2 separate containers actually will make it more productive compost process. I like that each side can lock into place. I am not sure the door is really strong but we'll see how it does over the winter. The directions were on my phone via a code. It was helpful for me, but I can see some people wanting a hard copy (you do have an option to print). Assembly was smooth and the 2nd barrel went much faster than the 1st. I thought everything was well labeled and straight-forward. After my last one broke, I did not want to spend a lot of $. I think for the value this should last a few years and that works for me! ## Features - YOUR RECIPE FOR PLENTIFUL PLANTS – Do you dream of a huge harvest or a front yard full of vibrant flowers?

There seems to be a lack of info about the transition?** A: I made 2 batches so far. The 1st I filled 3/4 full and let it sit. Over time the pile lessened to about 1/2 as it composted. I filled the 2nd chamber full and am waiting for it to do its work...after 2 weeks it’s still pretty full, although it has decreased, and continues to compost. **Q: where is it made?** A: made be Keter (in Israel), great product! **Q: Do the gloves contain latex in the palm grip surface?** A: Label says "nitrile coated, polyester based." I see no reference to latex and no latex is visible. The gloves are nothing special so I would personally not make a decision on whether to buy the composter with any consideration for the gloves. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by V***I on 2 December 2020* It’s a basic tumbler with two chambers so you can start your compost at different times.
