From the manufacturer

Yimby

Dual Chamber Tumbling Composter.

Tumbling Design

Avoid digging and mixing your compost pile by hand. The tumbling design makes mixing easy and efficient. Just close the door and turn it 5-6 times every 2-3 days. In hot sunny conditions and with a proper balance of ingredients the compost can finish in as little as 2 weeks.


Two Composting Chambers Two separate sides allow the first side to finish cooking while leaving the second side available to add fresh scraps/clippings. Continuously swapping sides after finishing will create an uninterrupted flow of rich, healthy compost.	Durable Construction The composter body is constructed from BPA free, UV inhibited recycled polypropylene. It is contact safe and will not degrade under direct sunlight. The galvanized steel frame is corrosion resistant.	Excellent Aeration The composter features adjustable air vents as well as deep fins to break up clumps inside the chamber and mix lots of oxygen into the compost. Tumbling composters allow far greater aeration than standard models.

Well worth it!

ByGeorge A. Reynoldson June 14, 2013

Style: ComposterVerified Purchase

I bought the Yimby tumbling composter Through an Amazon affiliate (Wayfair) for $97.34. It was fairly easy to assemble, and I instantly put it to use. It was about half the capacity of my old Earth Machine compost barrel, so when I got an offer for a second one from the supplier - Wayfair again - at a discount, I bought a second composter for $75! I took pictures of the assembly and posted them in detail on my Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200942320501147&set=a.10200942291380419.1073741826.1259915743&type=1&theater

The compost tumbler is doing great! The first side has finished compost and the second side is "cooking", and getting there. I bought a second compost tumbler (I posted pictures of it on FB), and while the second side of the first one is composting, I am adding to the first side of the second one. I'll soon use the finished compost to side-dress my okra in the vegetable garden.

I started the compost about 10 April, and it was ready about 2 months later. Don't believe the hype about compost in 14 days. Two months is a lot quicker than the average compost pile. Of course, I was continually adding to it for about a month, so you could say it took about a month from the time I stopped adding stuff. I would tumble it back and forth and around every few days. It doesn't need tumbling every day. Just be sure to add enough dry brown materials, so your compost doesn't become a soggy, wet, anaerobic mess.

UPDATE, one year later: Both my Yimby tumbling composters made it well through the rough winter, much colder and snowier than usual for this area. In spring I had two wheelbarrow loads of compost, which I put in my vegetable garden before planting tomatoes, beans, and okra. Now it is August 2014, and the garden is doing great, producing a lot of beans, okra, and beautiful, juicy, meaty tomatoes. I just emptied one of the composters so I can start a fresh batch while the other is "cooking". I am pleased with the speed and quality of compost. As I stated earlier, the key is to add dry materials to wet stuff so you don't get a soggy, anaerobic stinky mess. I keep a sealed garbage can full of last fall's dry leaves and a bin full of dry grass clippings to add to the tumblers whenever I throw in a crock full of wet kitchen peelings and coffee grounds.

Works great.

Bymamamamaon December 24, 2013

Style: ComposterVerified Purchase

I loved the idea of this and it works great. I put it together by myself with a cordless driver and a wrench, but a second pair of hands to balance things etc. would have made the process much quicker and easier.

I've been using this compost tumbler for almost a year now. My family of four eats a mess of fruits and vegetables, and this thing has really lived up to the task. The two chambers hold quite a bit, and it's fairly easy to turn. Of course the dark color help the cooking process too, and the footprint is fairly small. I have just recently gotten to the point where I feel like its time to empty chamber #1 so I can let #2 finish cooking. It's been several months and #1 is a beautiful rich black now, with nothing recognizable left except avocado pits and some egg shells.

A few things to keep in mind: This is a domestic compost, and it will attract pests and it might stink. It will probably ooze black liquid from cracks and vents. Thats all normal. I haven't had any trouble with smell since I started adding more ruffage, but the flies were fairly bad this summer. Remember: No meat, wheat, or citrus, and a handful or leaves or grass clippings per small load.

Very good for the price

ByE. Hansenon April 19, 2012

For the price, I really don't think you can go wrong. Composting isn't magic. A black bin in the sun will break down vegetable matter, I have no doubt this will work.

Assembly is somewhat lengthy, since you start on one side, and work your way around putting seven screws in each section, which is a lot of screws. The first couple panels are a balancing act making everything align.

If you follow the pictures as drawn, it goes together fine. They even threw in a few extra screws and nuts, so I didn't have to run to the hardware store for more (which i've had to do so many times with kits).

Shipping was quite fast.

The good points
-This might be the least expensive (or most correctly priced) tumbling composter out there (why do these things cost so much? They're injection molded plastic.)
-Quality is good. All the parts fit snug without gaps, misaligned holes, or flash/burrs which effect fitments.
-The poles for the base are sturdy
-The plastic is thick enough it should stand up to time in the direct sun
-All you need is a screwdriver and a wrench or pliers (for the nylon lock nuts in the base)

The negative points (or things which make it cost less)
-It would be great if it had a catch pan for compost drippings
-The mounting of the horizontal pole to the base is just one screw through both sections. It would be nice to see it slot into something welded on for more stability
-I think a pole between both long sides of the base, to keep it from spreading with weight, would be a good addition. I may run a tension wire if the base spreads.

Would be so much better if there were a handle on the side for turning it. But it does the job it was designed to do.

Like the Tumbler but wish it were larger

This was quite the project to assemble. Thank goodness for previous reviews so I knew I had to slowly and carefully approach this project. I think it took me 40 minutes.Read more

Stinky first-starter, but throw the directions out since they're useless anyway.

My boyfriend needed a few hours and my help to put this thing together. Three times. The instructions are a joke. We still forgot one of the nuts in the middle...Read more
