My sister has one of these and she LOVES it. She's had it for a few months and already made a few beautiful black batches of compost. Her garden is bursting with life - I am so envious! I have already ordered one and can't wait to get it. Make sure you get the NEW model which is much improved over the one in the picture above. These guys have obviously worked out all the kinks.

I want one of these. I've wanted to start composting for years. We have a garbage disposal but that is not an environmentally sound way to dispose of food waste. Plus, all that lovely potential plant food washed down the drain, literally. This is definitely a must-have. I have the perfect place to put it, too.
