Assembly is tedious.

As others have said, assembly is a pain. Tons of tiny parts, ikea furniture is a dream compared to this. Delivery came a week early which was great. Have only had this a week or so, can’t review its functionality but seems to be doing a it’s job. Comes with a clear instruction booklet for how to compost well.

Outstanding customer service

We have the double bin rotating bin and love it. However, being in the Hawaii weather, the hinges rusted off in less than a year. We reached out to Lifetime and Dany responded within 24 hours, and within 3 days, we had two complimentary replacement sets of hinges. We now add a little oil to prevent the rust. The customer service is excellent and I will definitely purchase more Lifetime products.

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.

Does not hold up to what you would think for some called Lifetime...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This composter does not hold up to Phoenix, AZ weather. The summers here mercilessly hot and anything you buy that is going to get exposed to the sun must be tough. This material cannot hold up to what the expectations are from the company's self proclaimed namesake and advertising. There are a number of issues that come with this composter that only people who have been doing it for a while understand. This design is messy; if you water the compost which you have to do to keep it going, especially in the summer, it leaks through the bottom. Subsequently it can be gross to turn because the compost "tea" (the water that leaks from the compost bin) will get all over the place. This also accelerates the rusting of all the exposed metal parts, most importantly the bands and the hinges on the door. I regret buying this composter, not for the mess, which I can deal with, but the materials are terrible. I would even venture to guess given how badly the decomposed in heat that the composter's plastic materials themselves are getting into my compost and making it toxic... Anywho, buyer beware

Really well made

This is really decent quality. It took me 3 hours to put it together. Getting the initial panels to click together before the fasteners is the most challenging part. This is why they recommend two people during this phase. I think it's much easier to pre drill the screw holes. Lifetime has a YouTube video you can guide you that is much easier than the assembly manual.

Prompt response

I've had this composter for several years but the hinges on one of the bins rusted and will no longer operate. A new set is being sent to me free of charge. Great service!

Good compost tumbler

Bought two years ago and one door hinge broke but was replaced by lifetime with no worries. Just make sure its level when you set it up and it will work for you also.

Pay someone to put together

Set aside about 4 hours to put this together and that is if things go smoothly. Had to drill out some plastic nuts they provide. Once completed, one on the barrels didn’t lock. Tried calling for support and hung up because wait time was too long.
