The Garden Gourmet Composting bin is one of the best selling composting bins ever. This is the one Oprah made famous by having it on her show for Earth Day. It has great louvers for air circulation. Just pile the stuff inside and let nature do its job. They’re great for putting in some inconspicuous place out back.

Product Description

Product Description

The Garden Gourmet Composting Bin offers the great features of larger composting bins at a lower price!


Capacity: The core unit has a capacity of 11 cu.ft. wich can be expanded by aproximately 1.5 cu.ft. by adding four additional 6" high side panels (more than two additional kits is not recommended). The square design of the Garden Gourmet 70 Gallon Composting Bin provides maximum capacity in the smallest space.


Heavy duty construction and durability: Rated 'best value' by a leading consumer magazine, the Garden Gourmet is constructed of 100% post consumer recycled HDPE plastic.  The black color of the plastic is designed to absorb and retain heat to accelerate the composting process.  UV inhibitors ensure that the Garden Gourmet will give you years and years of great service... In addition to serving as a convenient recycling vehicle for compostable kitchen waste, this composter also diverts 27 pounds of plastic from the landfill.  The Garden Gourmet's modular, reinforced panels and snap-fit assembly make it extremely strong and durable. It is sturdy, capable of withstanding high winds, high impact and heavy internal loads.


Aeration:  The sides of the Garden Gourmet composting bin are comprised of twenty individual panels, each of which incorporates an aeration vent.  This provides for aeration on every side and at every level of composting.


Assembly:  The Garden Gourmet composting bin is assembled by snapping together the pre-fabricated parts.  No tools are needed.  Ground stakes are included and these may be necessary in high wind areas.  If used, these need to be hammered into the ground.  Detailed care, assembly and use instructions are included with the composter.


Access:  Composting materials can be added in any of three different ways.  Compost material can be added through either of the two convenient flaps in the sloped top.  Alternatively, larger quantities of compostable materials can be added single handedly by removing the cover using the convenient handle provided at the ridge.  Compost can be removed from the 17 1/2" x 19" integral side sliding door by sliding it up to expose compost.  Note that because the walls are nearly vertical, you don't have to lean over to add or mix compost.  This design reduces stress on your back and gives you easy access to the contents.


Warranty: The Garden Gourmet 70 Gallon Composting Bin is guaranteed with the manufacturer against defects resulting from faulty workmanship or materials from a period of 10 years from the date of original purchase.
