This is my first step into composting so I can’t vouch for the output yet.
This is the best price I’ve seen for a spinning composter. It’s pretty solid and I was able to place it together myself in about 15 minutes (just needed a wrench and a screwdriver). A second person might be handy when attaching the composter to the legs.
The door slides easily but is also a snug fit and the composter is simple to spin. It’s made of pretty solid plastic with small airholes punched througout. Inner ridges and the spinning bar help break stuff up.
When this one fills up we’ll probably order a second one so the first can end its work.

Being a composting fan I did alot of research on composting tumblers. The Achla fits into my scheme perfectly. We are in the process of renewing some very poor soil and this composter has already provided 2 loads of much needed compost for our small garden in 6 weeks…now if they could just do something about the weather……

I am so pleased with my new Achla spinning composter. It was a fraction of the cost of the ComposTumbler that I was also considering. It was also quite simple to set up, and simple to turn, even completely full. I believe the black plastic exterior helps to heat the contents and facilitate the composting process. Although I filled it with pungent horse manure and kitchen scraps, there is small to no smell unless the lid is open. I will write back and let you know how my first batch of compost turns out.

The Achla CMP-05 spinning composter is a rugged, well-designed unit that is as simple to use as it is to assemble. My wife and I are very pleased. Our satisfaction with the composter was exceeded by our satisfaction with the firm we ordered from, crazydeals.com. Product delivery was swift and seamless and we received a personal follow-up call from owner Butch Segura to make sure we had received our product and were satisfied with it. You can’t go incorrect with either the product or the service! 5 stars!

This is exactly what you need to get that rotting garbage out of the stack in the corner of your yard and really get it composting! The unit assembles easily. The parts were just stuck inside the composter but nothing was broken or bent. It takes two people to place the plastic drum onto the completed leg assembly so have someone around at the end.
The unit spins easily (with two hands). We’ve had some food and yard waste cookin’ inside for about three weeks and it’s well on its way to being “black gold”.

This unit is very simple to setup, it took me less than 10 minutes. I picked this unit because I have a small city lot but wanted to start making my own compost, when it was the Amazon gold box deal I took it as a sign. I referenced [...] for items I could add and I have noticed a dramatic decrease in the amount of trash I place out on the curb. I keep an ancient margarita bucket similar to this Margarita Mix Huge Bucket Dispenser on my counter to collect kitchen scraps, and when it is full I add it to the composter. I have gotten fantastic compost by adding small bits daily. I have it on the north side of my garage and it gets a excellent 6-7 hours of sun a day. Simple to spin because of the indentations on outside where the blades are inside to break up the large chunks. Nice for a starter or city dwellers.
