Review: Good quality wood for reasonable price - Good quality product, so easy to assemble. The wood is so thick and good quality! Review: It works - The good: I have several compost bins, including hot bins and rotary bins. This one despite its simplicity has worked very well, it is quite large and it has produced compost quickly. This is the second one I've bought and I have no doubt it'll function just as well as the first one. The bad: it has become the norm nowadays that when you order something, you end up spending too much time poring over illegible instructions trying to assemble a product with bags of nuts and bolts. In this case they haven't even bothered, there are no instructions, nor have they included the screws you need (30 or so 30mm screws). Assembling is not difficult but it'll take about an hour if you include the time needed to find some photos or a video. Overall 3 stars, 5 for the product, 0 for the assembly and not including screws. ## Features - Easy to use - the removable front slats make filling and extracting compost from the bottom of this bin a breeze.

Might be sensible also to strengthen with timber - perhaps fence posts at each corner. **Q: Bought theee of these to accommodate grass cuttings. The gardener tells me the bins are not suitable for rotting down grass. Any comments ?** A: Well, the construction of them means that grass can quite easily escape initially through the slats at the front perhaps. But to rot down anything, you can't just add grass. You need a mix of 'green' and 'brown' materials so that you have soft growth but something to stop the green just wadding up anaerobically. So I'd suggest you can use these bins if you add other materials (suitably chopped up) and don't mind a bit of escaping grass? **Q: Is it suitable for rotting down grass cuttings** A: As long as you mix the cuttings with other materials it should be fine. This bin is quite large- which is good for generating heat- but be aware that it does take up a lot of room. **Q: What size and type screws do we need? Ours also came without them!** A: I seem to recall that the size is 1500x1000x600 high. The compost bin is manufactured in such a way, as to allow the unit to be assembled through a series of notches, allowing the unit to be clipped together. All of the notches are ready made and the unit clips together quite easily. I didn't receive any screws in my pack, so I provided my own, and they are necessary. The sloping slats on the front of the compost maker, however, are not screwed, as the front slats need to be removed to access the compost with a spade or garden fork.I have had my unit for three years at the allotment, and it is still as good as new, showing no signs of deterioration. I hope that the foregoing information is of some benefit to you. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality wood for reasonable price *by D***N on 29 November 2020* Good quality product, so easy to assemble.

It was easy to slot together, mallet required, and only one slot p broke away when fitting, so can be glued back on. No screws supplied, so 4 stars. I started as per instructions by fitting the first row, then CLAMPED the uprights,, and screwed the first slats. DONT use the slats as a gauge, just sight each one and clamp then screw. The gaps do vary but are all smaller than a slat, could be why some are saying the uprights are too short. With care this goes together well, and looks as though it will last. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lacewing 897 Litres Easy-Load Slatted Wooden Compost Bin Large Outdoor Garden Composter 65cm x 150cm - Envii Compost Accelerator – Organic Compost Maker & Activator, Uses Natural Beneficial Bacteria to Speed up the Composting Process, Suitable for All Bins 12 Tablets Treats 1,800L - Selections GFJ342 Cover for Large Wooden Slatted Composter (116cm x 116cm) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/48382977-primrose-897l-easy-load-slatted-composter-wooden-pressure-treated-compost](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/48382977-primrose-897l-easy-load-slatted-composter-wooden-pressure-treated-compost) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
