I thought this item might be a little bit bigger than it is. I was expecting close to a 55-gallon drum type size, but it seems well shy of that. That said, it seems like a sturdy construction. These things get heavy fast so I mainly wanted something that sites on a base as this unit does rather than something that is on some cheap metal legs. Once full, it is a little harder to rotate than I imagined given the mass inside, but it should work just fine. Wish there where a couple handles on the side with the opening. Spinning it is just a bit awkward.

My initial impression of this composting drum was a good one. The plastic drum appeared to be heavy duty. Since my first use the flange connecting to the filler cap to the drum has fallen completely off. Upon inspection not one of the "pop" style rivets had been properly installed. Having used pop rivets prior to this event the problem was readily apparent upon inspection. Being of bulky size returning this item would cost more than I paid for it i.e. lost time and travel. This product could benefit from tighter quality control before shipping.

I'm very happy with this compost tumbler. It's a great size . Other compost bins I looked at were too small with such small openings . This one has a nice big opening so I get easily dump out the container from my kitchen. It is a little bit awkward when you spin it, but not bad. I am very pleased with my choice and am thinking of buying another one at some point so I can start a new one as the other one is "cooking".

This is an excellent environmental product in that it is made from recycled material and helps to recycle appropriate waste into compost. Very sturdy, compact and well made. Great capacity, relatively easy to tumble to mix contents. Easy access large screw off door. Low profile and dark black color virtually blends into yard. Durable single piece barrel that keeps out varmits. This is my second unit. I plan to rotate between the two allowing one to finish composting while I fill the other.

I think the Compost Wizard, Jr. is a well made product. It seems sturdy enough, but since I just got it I can't say how durable it will be. It does the job but, it is smaller than I was expecting. Before I bought this, I was composting in a 42 gallon plastic trash can. I moved the contents to the Compost Wizard, Jr. and they filled it up. The specs on this says it can hold 55 gallons of material. Based on my experience, 55 gallons may be stretching it a bit!
