Buy it!
We have this huge area in the back of our garage where all the leaves get blown. They do create nice leaf mulch on their own. But we need to find a better way to contain them so that we can put several raised beds there. I hate the idea of compost Tumblrâs because it sounds like a wet and soggy mess but youâre gonna have to come back and interact with all the time. At one point I had a compost area built out of old pallets but eventually parts of it started to rot. I love the concept of this product and went ahead and purchased it because it sounds like something very simple, effective, and durable. The plastic is not going to rot out as far as I can see. It came in a small enough box. It was easy to carry to the back of the yard and wrangle myself. The only additional thing I think youâre going to need other than what comes in a package⦠Go ahead and take the time to get a few stakes and a mallet. I used a rubber mallet and 4 bamboo stakes that I already had. You could use more or less depending upon how sturdy you want it or if youâre trying to make a specific shape or something. After we got it about half full we pulled out the stakes because we needed them on our tomatoes and it seems to be sitting up just fine now. I like the general concept that you can attach several of these together. Itâs basically stacks the leaf blowing area that we had before and condenses the floor print profile of everything. So instead of using 10â x 10â just laying on the ground, they can compactly fit in a much smaller space even up against the fence or something. This keeps the dogs from running through it or defecating on it. I can see how if I had a leaf mulcher or if I ran over them with a mower it we can dance even more. We might try that in the fall. In the meantime I expect we will probably buy a second one of these this fall while the first then itâs still compacting. We purchased the gold or tope color, whatever they call it. I love that they offered that instead of just the standard black and green. It kind of blends in with our fence color. I would love to see all of my neighbors go to this method instead of bagging their leaves and throwing them out at the curb. But I think in order For it to become a more commonly purchase product, the price is going to have to drop. And honestly now that I see how it works and what itâs made of⦠I think itâs worth the money because thereâs not a comparable product out there competing but itâs also kinda high priced for how simple it is. The only grade that I have is my continued gripe with elitist home maintenance and gardening⦠We should be encouraging everyone to garden⦠But I keep seeing these expensive products out on the market insisting that people need to spend $200 for a worm bin or $100 for this other compost item. This is one of the lower price ones and even still I think it should be lower for what it is.

Simplest, fastest composter ever with long durability. Get this one, you won’t regret it.
This was my 4th year using one of these composters for my backyard composting (leaves, grass clippings, garden waste, kitchen scraps). It does an awesome job- big enough capacity that there’s enough biomass to keep the breakdown happening year round, you can configure the size easily and on the fly, there’s easy access to the pile over the edge for turning, etc. The compost comes out consistent- an issue I’ve had with every other composting system I’ve ever tried, this one has the best outcome… the mesh design and upright orientation of this composter allows the right amount of air and water to penetrate the pile, so as long as you turn it with regular frequency, the materials break down evenly and quickly. Easiest composting ever!I’ve tried other types of systems over my years of gardening and permaculture work- those smaller rotating bins or 55gal (or smaller) converted barrels don’t have enough capacity to fuel the bio-reactions, and then they get gross FAST, not to mention the issue of limited accessibility to the material through tiny doors; the on-the-ground 3-sided 3-bin system doesn’t allow enough air to penetrate the pile and takes up a lot of space; random big piles in your yard blow around and and make a mess, etc. This composter solves all those problems, is cheap, simple, and durable.I’ve made it this far in the 4 years using just one of these composters- I actively load up materials in batches, then it composts down; I add more material and that composts down; then turn regularly between big additions to the bin when the temperature of the pile drops… after a few months I take off the shell and start a new pile and let the other one rest/finish off until it’s ready to be used- the resting pile holds it’s shape neatly and I’ve never had any issues of collapse or blow-away. I increased my garden capacity this year, and so now I’m ready to pick up my second composter to get a second system going for the fall leaf season.I wanted to note on the durability, since this is a plastic product and sits in the sun. I keep my composter outside year round in the intense Colorado sun, and have seen NO issues- no ripping, no fading, no weakening, etc. and it doesn’t break down in the elements (110F to -20F temps, rain, snow, large hail, squirrels, etc). I don’t cover it nor protect it in any way…. it’s just bomb-proof. Can’t say enough good things.If you have a big yard with grass, and trees that drop lots of leaves (bag them in the fall to use the rest of the year), and a garden (or neighbors!) that could really use all of that rich organic material (for free!), you MUST be composting… and this is your simplest, cheapest, and easiest solution out there.Last note- because the diameter/ capacity of this pile is large if you have it all the way expanded out, I found it helpful to use a long stem (20 inches or more) compost pile thermometer to give me an idea of the internal state of the pile, so I know when to turn it. One like this (the one I use is no longer available on Amazon): https://www.amazon.com/Thermometer-Greenco-Stainless-Fahrenheit-Temperature/dp/B01BMX3SYI/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=298TAGUIEH72H&keywords=compost+thermometer+36+inch+stem&qid=1571264669&sprefix=compost+thermometer%2Caps%2C168&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzUVlGUEU3VjVJQ0Q5JmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNTc1MzM0NzVJOENMREdDQjNKJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAwODY4MjIyQ0dKRkhCRU8zS0NJJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Awesome Value, Almost Perfect!
Let me tell you about the Geobin compost bin – it’s a real gem for anyone looking to get into composting without breaking the bank.First off, this thing is a steal. It’s one of the cheapest options out there, which is great if you’re just dipping your toes into the composting world or if you’re trying to be a bit more eco-friendly on a budget.Setting it up? A piece of cake. Even if you’ve never composted before, you’ll have this up and running in no time. It comes with these nifty interlocking keys that let you adjust the size to fit your needs.Speaking of size, this bin is like Mary Poppins’ bag – it holds way more than you’d think! We’re talking up to 246 gallons. Whether you’ve got a tiny city garden or a sprawling suburban yard, the Geobin’s got you covered.One thing I really love is how well it breathes. It’s got these clever little holes all over that keep the air flowing. Trust me, your neighbors will thank you – no stinky compost here!Now, let’s talk durability. This isn’t some flimsy plastic that’ll fall apart after one season. The Geobin is made of tough stuff that can handle whatever Mother Nature throws at it. You’ll be using this for years to come.Is it perfect? Well, not quite. It could use a few more clips to keep everything in place, especially when you’re dealing with a full load. But honestly, that’s a small gripe for an otherwise fantastic product.All in all, if you’re looking to start composting or upgrade your current setup, the Geobin is a solid choice. It’s easy to use, built to last, and won’t cost you an arm and a leg. Happy composting!ââââââââââââââââ
