## Description

desertcart.com : Miracle-Gro Dual Chamber Compost Tumbler – Easy-Turn, Heavy-Duty Outdoor Bin Composter with 2 Sliding Doors (2x18.5 Gal/70L : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Awesome Tumbler. Easy to assemble and Use....LOVE IT! - I've had a chance to test this product out and I love it. It was easy to assemble. At first, I was skeptical, but the prior reviews sounded good so I thought to give it a try and I'm sooooo glad I did. I purchased when still cold outside and began adding my veg scraps, browns, etc......buy mid Spring the first bin was full of great compost and now it's July and my second compost is almost ready. Having 2 bins is a must...great feature. Still looks and feels sturdy/stable. Now that I'm use to it, it's a breeze. I would recommend this product over and over. It looks and fits well in my backyard. I just had to write a review for this product.
Review: Good product but Who to Contact for J-connector parts? Gloves are both left-handed! - UPDATE May2023: The broken J-connectors looseness continued to be an issue so I super-glued the junctions to stabilize the panels... problem solved. I needed the gloves to do work in the yard and discovered they are BOTH LEFTHANDED... sturdy thorn-resistant on the palm surface for one hand! The dual-chamber tumble composter arrived Apr 4 and was put together the next day. Assembly is not too complicated but the J-connectors were really difficult to install. Mine were not solid as shown, but actually toothed on the ends, so theoretically they should compress a little. I bent & stretched them as directed, but they barely fit into the slots.There were two extra but several broke off an end tooth which means everything held together well enough for assembly. but the junctions wiggle. I'm concerned the panels may separate when there is actually the weight of compost material in the chambers. I've contacted the Miracle-Gro support to purchase more J-connectors but no one has replied. I can't even find a mention of a "composter" product on any Miracle-Gro website so unsure how this product is supported. I may have to just secure the connections with super-glue if the company does not respond. Otherwise, the dual chamber composter is just about what I wanted. Each chamber should hold enough kitchen waste for several weeks so alternating sides would give enough time for the compost to mature. The construction material is plastic but seems solid. The drums spin easily and doors are secure. I would purchase this item again if the construction issue can be solved.... maybe use hot water or a heat gun to make the connectors pliable during installation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can we get compost tea?**
A: When you add water, put a bin underneath and you will get compost tea.

**Q: at what point do I stop putting waste in and stop so it fully composts? There seems to be a lack of info about the transition?**
A: I made 2 batches so far. The 1st I filled 3/4 full and let it sit. Over time the pile lessened to about 1/2 as it composted. I filled the 2nd chamber full and am waiting for it to do its work...after 2 weeks it’s still pretty full, although it has decreased, and continues to compost.

**Q: where is it made?**
A: made be Keter (in Israel), great product!

**Q: Do the gloves contain latex in the palm grip surface?**
A: Label says "nitrile coated, polyester based." I see no reference to latex and no latex is visible. The gloves are nothing special so I would personally not make a decision on whether to buy the composter with any consideration for the gloves.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as intended
*by C***L on July 11, 2026*

I bought this for my mom. It was easy to assemble, and works fine. You need to make sure you actually turn it regularly though. It attracts flies on the inside, not sure what I can do about that though. It's pretty stable, and doesn't get blown over by the wing if there's stuff inside.
