My Enviro-Cycle Composter arrived this week. Although I had issues with my credit card being flagged as fraud from Drobo delaying the shipping from Outdoordecor.com (best price on the net), it arrived floating loosely (i.e. no peanuts!) in a large cardboard box with no packaging. I am for the most part very impressed with the quality of the product.
The one component that I am not sure will hold up to use is the small flimsy latch that holds the lid closed. Time will tell.
I am EXTREMELY pleased with the quality of the product otherwise and am pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to spin when empty. In fact, if you gave it a gently tug, it would continue to spin freely.
I now have my first load of kitchen waste, shredded paper and grass clippings in it. It is about 1/4 full and still spins quite easily.
So far I am very pleased with my purchase. The black model gets extremely hot here in the Nevada desert sun, which I hope will help encourage a rapid compost process.
As this one gets closer to being full, I plan on purchasing a second unit to allow this one to fully compost without additional waste being added.
More to come....
