This has worked well for us. Way to out together and produces a great compost. One thing to note is that the compost can rest on the bottom ledge inside which can make it difficult to open the doors. I have had to take apart the bin on one occasion to release the compost. Didn’t love that.

I am very excited to have a large self-aerating compost bin that I won't have to tumble. I've had 2 tumblers and the metal axel rusted within a little more than a year (just past warranty). The company told me to not use citrus in them and they rusted just as quickly so....This is a great composter. It began heating the day I began to load it up. Should break down my ingredients very quickly.

I have yet to assemble this actually purchased Aerobin 400 Composter. If the company hasn't changed the actual materials used in the product several years back, it will be a good purchase. I already purchased one of these exact same model Aerobin 400 Composter 3-4 years ago. . The materials used in the manufacturing process are of high quality. It is easy to assemble and keep the outside clean by hosing down once or twice a year. It still physically holds up years later, produces quality compost soil, and works great. I have black bears in the area, they get curious, sniff and seem to leave it alone. The items put in this composter seem to start the decaying process pretty quickly, even during the NJ winter months.

This is my second composter of this model. It works get, especially if you have it in the sun!

I have been using it for a month. So far so good. Great size
