Composting Reviews Of Best Selling Tumbler Composters and of Classic Compost Bins all at Low Online Prices

Composting is a great way to get free compost to put on your flowering plants and vegetables to get better growth and more fruit and vegetables.

And having a compost bin reduces your own personal production of garbage to go to landfill. Everybody wins with a composter. But which composter is best for you and your needs? And how much will it cost?

 

Here's how you can choose the right composter for you and your needs…

Just by paying some attention to these simple tips can help you find the best composting bin for your needs.

 

Tip 1      Tumbler Composter or Classic Composter?

 

All of the traditional composters were static – that is they were not tumbler composters. They did their job well but took a longer time to make the compost. Does this matter to you? If you want compost as fast as possible then get a tumbler. On the other hand if you are content to wait a while longer then get a classic composter.



Tip 2      Size Matters

 

Like most things you buy, composters come in small, medium and large sizes. Why are there different sizes? Well different families and different size gardens produce more or less waste and you want a composting bin that meets your needs.

  • The small size is great for a small garden or 1 person household
  • A medium size family or garden suits a medium size composter.
  • and the large size suits a large family or a large yard with lots of leaf fall, hedge clippings or grass mowings.

 

Tip 3      Speed Matters

 

A traditional or classic composter makes compost in a month or 2. It depends on the mix of waste and the temperature but it sure takes a while. That's OK if you plan that into your gardening year. But what if you want compost quickly? Then you choose a tumbler composter that can, if filled properly make compost in a couple of weeks.

 

Tip 4      Materials matter too.

 

Some composters are made of steel and others of recycled plastic – we'll look at the details of this in the individual reviews but some folk just like one material over another so this is something else to bear in mind when making your shortlist.

 

Tip 6     Design matters a lot.

 

  Soilsaver ClassicThere are 2 parts to the design of a composter; one is whether you choose a tumbler composter or whether you choose a classic design with no tumbling. The other is to decide whether you want or need a composter where you work at waist height or whether you want a low profile design where you have to bend down to use it.

 

  • Waist height is very convenient and easy to use and may be better for those with back, hip or knee problems but stands out more in the garden. Other composters are on a low base or on the ground and have a lower profile.
  • On the ground or on a low base -a  low profile composting bin looks more inconspicuous but requires bending or kneeling to load, unload or tumble.

Lastly, something that is often overlooked is whether your new composting bin arrives assembled and ready to use or is there some assembly involved. If you are a sturdy D-I-Y type this may not faze you. Heck you might like getting out the screwdriver and tools but other folk – like me, just want to use the composter as soon as we can with no hassle at all and in that case you choose an already assembled composter.

 

Tip 7      Is the Price Right?
