Lifetime Rotating Composter

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this a few years ago and it worked great until a few days ago when it collapsed and the tube the barrels rotate on collapsed. All of the metal parts have significant rust on them and I have been using wd 40 on them since the beginning. The plastic parts are in fair condition and if the metal parts are available I think I could fix it

Fantastic product. I have had this composter for several years. I had some trouble with several of the parts rusting and the company immediately sent me replacement parts at no cost. Excellent service.

Pins break, and inner hardware that controls the lid handle rust very easily. Both within the first year of use Desktop/composter pins.jpeg composter inner door latches.jpeg

I purchased this product some years ago. It is one of the more expensive composters. If you want a product that will be functional and great to operate for 6 months to a year you have found it. But if you are expecting one that will continue to be functional for an extended period of time look elsewhere. The metal materials rust and cannot be turned due to corrosion. I continue to use but can no longer rotate bins.

I have this model and it worked great for a couple of years but unfortunately now the gears are rusting and one of the doors gears are completely seized up so that one side is unusable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] EXTREMELY difficult to assemble, HORRIBLE instructions. Once assembled it lasted a few years, now the latch on one door is totally stuck. There is no way to open it!

Same issues as everyone else. Hardware is rusting/rusted. Parts are unobtainable. Currently unusable.

I’ve owned this composting bin for almost ten years. I did have to replace the door hinges but Lifetime did provide parts at no cost. The composters work very well, but don’t overlook the requirement to rotate them every week to minimize the stink!

WE bought these years ago in another part of the country. I have disassembled them and transported them many times. Whenever I need a part, the customer service staff at Lifetime always are prompt with supplying what I need. NO QUESTIONS ASKED. When they say Lifetime, they mean it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great short time composter. It quickly composted all the internal hardware rendering it useless. The replacement parts cost are not feasible and now the composter will spend a forever lifetime in the landfill. You’re welcome grandkids.

I bought this two weeks ago and found there was a piece missing; I contacted the customer desk (in USA) asking for a replacement and it was shipped from the USA and arrived 5 days later. I was impressed. Rarely to I find a help desk so responsive and helpful. Putting it together was enjoyable if you are good at DIY but it does need two people some of the time. I was very impressed by the engineering and design to allow it be be built from flat pack.

I bought this product over 5 years ago and it has provided gallons and gallons of compost. Even though it is now out of warranty, Lifetime provides top service and replacement parts.

Our original purchase of our compost tumblers was smooth, and we received the product which has been performing well for the last 5 years. When the hinges became too rusted to hold the lid on, they not only sent me the hinges, but new lids. When I had to email them that the lid fasteners hardware was not with the lids, they immediately replied that they would ship those too --- we received them within a few days! Thank you Lifetime! My compost tumblers may just last a lifetime!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my double composter and the customer service at lifetime is excellent. A live person answers the phone and are very knowledgable regarding the parts or information about the LIFETIME products. I recommend LIFETIME the support is there after the purchase.

I called Lifetime to order the the parts to repair the locking mechanism. Customer Service was able to identify all the parts needed and provided them as a customer service. I received the parts as scheduled and was able to repair our double composter without any problems.

The Lifetime Double Bin Rotating Composter been a great product for a period of years. Not unexpectedly given the moisture created when creating compost (and I fill the bins to capacity), a couple of the metal parts rusted and detached. I called and the parts were in stock and were shipped to me the same day. Very impressive customer service.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Best Compost Bin on the Market, I have 2 now. They are well built, wash down the metal from time to time to prevent corrosion. Lifetime Customer Service is best there is

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great composter.I used the product heavily and it was up to the task. Only problem occurs when some of the internal parts began to rust. After a while they totally rusted. I was totally pleased that I was supplied with replacement parts and all I had to do was pay shipping! I am now waiting for those parts and I will update when I receive them.

I have been using them for 6 months and am getting great results, easy to fill and keeping rats etc out, I am able to remove simple bins and my garden looks more organized and tidy. I also find it easy to load the compost into a wheelbarrow, I am developing raised beds and would not be able to fill without my Rotating Compost Bins . I also must state that it is so clean an simple to use. I find it easy to clean and keep using.

This compost tumbler set is convenient, can hold a lot of food waste, and easy to divide your working compost with finished compost since there are two bins! I LOVE these tumblers. However, the handles on my rusted so that I can't lock the lids closed anymore. It is starting to attract a lot of bugs and I am afraid soon it will attract rats. I can't toss my compost anymore either and tossing it by hand in this tumbler is very inconvenient because of the design. I have seen that other people have had this issue and have gotten a replacement part or some type of fix from the company to ensure that the tumblers can lock closed. I would be interested in that so I can continue using this product!!
