An excellent composter that should last. It's a well thought out design. However be prepared for the time it will take to put it together and pay close attention to the build instructions. For example I misread the manual and proper assembly of the first barrel took about 45 mins and because of that, the second one only took me 10mins! It took me about 3 hours in total to put it together. A metric socket set (11 %26 13mm) will make assembly easier.

I am pleased with the product. But I’m disappointed that I got two instead of just one that I ordered. So far no one has picked up the return for credit even though we have followed instructions to the letter for return. Please help me get this done.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hi I'm living in the UK and when the straps on my Double Drum Rotating Composter broke with being several years old. I thought I would email the company to see if they could help me. They returned the email straight away and asked how they could help. With an exchange of a few emails the straps were on there way and a week later they arrived at my home. What a great company. Well done

This unit has performed beyond our expectations, beyond the warranty period A bear tried to beat this unit up, it made off with the part of the barrel by the door opening. I contacted Lifetime, and told them of my Dilemma.I was in contact with a service rep by the name of "Alejandro" he was extremely friendly,patient, and knowledgeable. He located the part, and even though it was beyond warranty, sent it free of charge to me in Canada. Very impressed with him, and lifetime products. You don't see service and generosity like this very often, Thanks so much, will buy lifetime products again.

I have this Double bin composter, and can say it’s part of our life. Composting helps our garden at the most! Lighter trash to be picked up to the land fill, our trees and all vegetation are very well and happy with every 6 weeks of 50 gallon of compost going into the ground by our tiller! Thanks lifetime for designing this equipment!

Being able to rotate the composter speeds everything up. During the summer here in Ohio (may-august) I can create a drum of compost every month. I use one for grass clippings and horse manure while the other has both plus vegetable kitchen scraps. Keep the hinges oiled, or they will rust. Lifetime service and support is AAAAA#1

Well made, replaces a prior unit that lasts 10 years. The bands around the barrel add significant strength and stability. Easy to put together if you follow the instructions closely. Putting the first two sides together is the trickiest part - as when the third side goes in the first 2 can separate.

Bought the Lifetime Double Composter Tumbler a couple of years. Turned out to be a great choice. Our only problem is the two door hinges. Both rusted and the doors could not be opened. One call to customer service and my problem was fixed. Sending me two new and improved hinges at no cost to me.

Really nice, heavy duty barrel composting unit. I gave it 4 stars because it was a bear to assemble, two people definitely needed to put it together. Otherwise, I really like it.

I just got this and thankfully I did not allow my husband to put it together by himself because it is definitely a two man job. They even give you two sets of instructions which I really appreciated; so I didn't have to read over his shoulder. It was a lot of assembly but I think it will be a good composter.
