"Brilliant idea but the quality of the timber doesn't support the design; the slots cut in the front timbers for the slide in bars result in the material in front of the slots breaking off. Several were missing on arrival; more broke off as I tried to assemble it. The only way I managed to get the front timbers in was by knocking nails in to hold them. This either needs to be made of a hardwood - heavy and expensive - or needs metal brackets to hold the removable slats."

"The design of these compost bins is good, although the side supports could be an inch or two longer. Assembly was straightforward and relatively easy with two of us doing the job. the wood was very wet when it arrived so we let it dry out well before attempting assembly which meant it fitted together reasonably well. However 5 of the side boards were split or completely broken off where the notch is cut into them so that they don't hold the front boards securely"

But it's a cheap item for what it is and I have no doubt it'll last a good few yrs. I used a mallet to fit them together, at the back2 corners, wasn't too tight to slot in the front slats-didn't push them all the way in-no need. Much improved from my plastic bins in size, economy of space (same area at the top as at the bottom) and appearance. I bought 3 and made them into 2 at 1.5 x height which fits my space better.

I like the design though I don't know how the notched front pieces will stand up to being knocked out and back in again over the years - one ear has already split off. Be warned that even the small size is heavy. I put my first of two together in the garage and it was an awkward lift up some steps into the back garden.

Perhaps the backs should be assembled this way too - it would only take a couple more pieces of wood and some screws.

"Pretty good value for money. Easy to construct. I like the way front slats can be removed to give access to the compost at the bottom of the heap."

"Purchase and delivery service was excellent, however the product was well made but difficult to assemble, not enough detailed instructions. I now realise that it can only work well if it is placed upon perfectly level ground, which is rare in most gardens, even then found the front slats do not fit easily and cannot be easily removed. I purchased two and have only assembled one for threasons stated. I will persevere as I feel the design in principle is good. could do with slightly longer side vertical timbers and more screws to ensure better rigidity. Having said all that, I will probably purchase more of your range at some time"

"A piece of wood was broken off from an end but I glued it on before assembling. Several of the joints needed to be sandpapered before they cold be assembled accurately. I am hoping that when it is in use it will be fit for purpose..... Thank you."

"Firstly it wasn't delivered and left where I asked it to be left but the staff at Primrose were helpful and sent me another one but I received 2! Putting the composter together wasn't easy and needed a lot of hammering to get it to slot together. Now it is complete it is lovely and looks good in my garden. The spare composter is being retrned free and this has been sorted out by Primrose very eficiently."

"The three compost bins are now erected and ready to receive the garden and kitchen waste although it will be a little time before all three are 'cooking' Assembly was easy and the last one only took about ten minutes to erect. The only slight defect was two of the angled slots at the front had small pieces split off but not sufficient to render them unusable. Product abd service both highly satisfactory "

"It was exactly the type of compost container that I wanted, so I purchased two recently, having had a similar pair for many years. However when the re-moveable slats were put in place, they fitted so tightly that I would never have managed to pull them out when the time came to empty the compost. I had to cut slightly larger grooves in each strip of wood in order to remedy this problem. I would recommend constructing the containers near to where you want to place them as it was very heavy and difficult work to carry them down to the bottom of the garden after erecting them! I am sure that they will give me many years of valuable service though."

"My compost bin arrived promptly and I found it very easy to assemble. So far I've decanted the compost from my old bin into the new one and am adding peelings etc daily. It is in the same place as the old, by a fence that backs onto a small copse. I had masses of brandlings in the old bin so expect to have the same in the new one. A book I have suggests that this type of bin would benefit from some insulation around it to keep the contents warm. If this is the case it might be an idea to suggest it in your instructions. It might be of help to those customers new to compost making. I have looked at your website and am impressed with it and also your customer service. Many thanks Sue Cruh"

"The initial delivery lacked not only screws (corrected by post the next day after some persuasion!) but also it transpired 12 pieces of wood of one design and two of another in both of the packs ordered. Having gone through the details twice of what was missing and needed sending, 2 completely new packs were sent but what a waste of money - clearly the company needs to review its dispatch checking systems etc. Also surprised and disappointed that the two uprights did not already have pilot holes drilled to accept the 14 screws. Overall very disappointed and being late in final delivery I couln't assemble them when I had the time to do so they are still waiting "

"A couple of minor problems:- 1. Five of the side pieces were damaged on receipt. The corners on the lower part of the angled slot had broken off during transit. Four pieces were in the packaging so I glued these into place. 2.I found the removable slats at the front to be a very tight fit and considered this may be a problem when I needed to remove them. I therefore made a shallow groove on each of the front slats to make a push fit. Despite the above, I consider this to be a brilliant product and brilliant design and very good value. Can't wait for spring next year when I can push out the compost from the top, as against being on my knees for a couple of hours with a long handled fork,trowel,shovel etc.to get to the back as in previous years."

"Delivered promptly. Very easy to assemble - helped by my 2 year old! Wood was quite wet so fairly swollen and growing surface mould but should dry out and any problems with tight joints I would hope will resolve - or it may not be an easy load bin anymore. Overall i am happy as it was a very much cheaper option than any others I could find. I'm sure it will serve me well for many years and looks very tidy. "

"Easy to put together but the opening had some broken end pieces where the wood had broken off (due to the cut along the grain). The opening slats are also very tight so that I had to shave off some wood to ease removal. Doubtful about such a wide gap in the opening end slats but time will tell."

"Thanks for the prompt delivery. The item was relatively easy to put together. Some of the pieces (which slot together) didn't do so easily, particularly the bits which are removable for easy loading and unloading, but that's not a problem as they hold well enough to hold in the compost. Best was that they are the only ones I have found that are longer that wide and fit the only place I have to put them perfectly."

"It seems quite good but having only just put it together it is difficult to comment on its effectiveness. However it was disappointing to find the ends of several of the slots for the front slats broken off - they are manageable but it is a bit annoying. And the tight fit will probably make the front slats difficult to remove when the time comes so they are only pushed into the slots a little way. Also the 2 side planks are too short and there is only space to screw in 5 levels and not 6 if one uses a front slat as a spacer between each level as instructed."

"For the most part the structure was satisfactory. I do have an issue however with the vertical pillars on either side. These proved to be undersized. As a result I was unable to fix the top side rails. You will appreciate that the structure remains unfinished. This is not a complaint merely an observation. After all the product is probably still worth the cost. There simply remains a feeling that the bin didn't quite do what it said on the tin. "

"The compost bin was easy to assemble and very functional - more attractive than the plastic type and the front slats are useful if loading with a barrow. Unfortunately the flat pack must have been sitting in a yard for some time as the wood was very damp and fungus could be seen growing on the wood - I'm not too bothered by that though it was a little disappointing."

"The two compost bins had been packed wet. One was assembled almost on arrival without difficulties. Second one not unpacked and assembled for a week by which time the slots for the bars on the front of the bin had swollen to such an extent that they had to be hammered into place and I needed to enlarge some of the slots to make them fit. Since then the timber of both bins has swollen to such an extent that the front slotted timbers can now only be removed with heavy hammering. Suggest you increase the tollerances."

"Joints for front removable slats are too tight. Also, wood too brittle, craks/splits too easily. Delivery/Carrier company should be able to phone when they're about to deliver. Just turning up on the chance a customer will be in is not good practice these days."
