The system works well. The corrugated PVC drain tiles supplied with the system did not hold up well under the weight of the contents of the Micro bin. After 60 days under the bin they were partially collapsed. Had to replace with solid drain tiles which have held up much better. You can be as frugal or elaborate with your bin construction as you desire if cost is your concern or looks don't matter much. Product instruction manual supplied is well drafted and easy to follow. Composting guidelines included is very helpful as well.
I started out with one Micro bin and have expanded to two. The finished product is very well broken down and the Nutrients give gardeners an excellent alternative to commercial fertilizers. Noxious weeds are all but eliminated with this system compared to static pile. We use end product in our garden and as a top dressing to our pasture rotation cycle, as well as an extra source of revenue. The end product produces an excellent result when compared with commercial products in gardens and flower beds,with little worry if the livestock gains access to the pastures before rotation time.
