Exaco Trading WIBO WB110 110-Gallon Composter CustomerReview
This is just what I was looking for. I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on composter, but I did want onw that would stand up to many seasons of harsh winters. This was easy to assemble. It hold a huge amount of compost but takes up a relatively small space. The only negative is that the lid doesn’t stay open on it’s own. Since it sits up against a fence, I was able to improvise with a small hook/eye. Overall, a great product.
NOT Designed for Active Composting! – gardencat –
I’ve been composting for close to a decade, and decided to trade in my old pair of bins (Earth Machine) for a couple that I thought would be a little better looking in my garden. Assembly was fairly quick and easy (about 10 minutes each, and I did it by myself.) I transferred existing compost-in-the-making from my old bins to the new bins, and I thought I was good to go.
The first, relatively minor, inconvenience is that the lids do not stay up on their own, as advertised. So, when loading more than a handful, you’d need to find a way to prop the lid open. I called customer service at Exaco (the manufacturer) and the agent confirmed that the lid does not stay up on its own (despite the fact that it is advertised as such.)
The much more important issue is that the bin cannot withstand turning of the compost. I’d barely put my tool in the bin to turn the compost (which I try to do a few times a week in order to have finished compost after a couple of months) when the side panels of the bin split apart. The top of the bin stayed together, since there are clips holding the top in place, but the bottoms splayed open. At first I thought maybe I’d gotten a defective bin, or assembled it incorrectly, but when I went to turn the contents of the second bin, the same thing happened.
When I called customer service, I was told that the bin was “not designed to withstand rough turning…” uhm, rough turning? I was using a garden fork, which I’d used with my previous plastic bins for many years. The customer service agent told me I could drill holes in the panels and zip tie them together. General composting generally involves turning of compost. If a bin can’t withstand turning, there should be a clear notation that bins are designed for passive – not active – composting.
Almost a really good compost bin – Danny Creech – Ventura, CA United States
I ordered this compost bin from Amazon to replace one damaged in a fire. It arrived on time, as usual, from Amazon. I emptied my old composter into this one once I got it assembled and set up. Everything went fine, the assembly was easy, but when I added water to the compost, one corner of the composter came apart. The locking cams that hold the corners together would not hold. Rather than empty it and send it back, I drilled holes in the sides of each corner and tied the faluty seam back together with heavy duty tie wraps. I went ahead and tie wrapped each of he corners just in case. Now I have a pretty good compost bin and I feel it will last a long time. I like the design so I guess I’ll keep it. If the corner were designed stronger, I would give this compost bin a 5 but sense I had to do the extra work to make it sound, a 3 is more than good enough.
