Good, but a few rust problems...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Don't like the opening handle mechanisms; they can rust and get hard to use. Also, the main aerator bars can rust completely through and break, see pic. Warranty customer service is great though!

The answer to a problem

I have a lot of red ants that love my compost piles. This composter has solved my problem. Pay attention, and use a rubber mallot, and assembley is relatively easy.

great product

Great product but the closing mechanism on the lid has completely rusted out. Talked to a rep and new parts are being sent to me when they come available.

Excellent customer service

I had an issue with obtaining spare parts in the UK and asked Lifetime to supply direct. Parts received in good time and now it is as good as new. Excellent customer service.

reply from Customer Serivce

I apologize for the trouble that you are having with your composter. We have since began using a more rust resistant paint on the locking mechanism. This prevents rust more efficantly than before. Also the locking pins are easily replaced if you call customer service at 1-800-225-3865.

Worked great until it rusted out!

Have had it a couple of years and now we can't even get one side open without fear of breaking the latch because of all the rust. We were so excited to get a composted and now we're afraid to use it.

I love the double barrel feature.

I bought this composter over 8 years ago and am still using it. The hinges and locking hardware corroded but were replaced as a courtesy by Lifetime products.

No Hassle Repair Parts

I purchased this tumbler a few years back and have loved its performance. When the rotator pin broke, your company replaced it with new parts quickly. Thanks and we will remember to buy Lifetime products again.
