Default Rotary Compost bins

Thanks all for the replies. I think I'll save my money! :-)


I would too. A good description from the Interweb thingy is, "The
rotary system - These are cylindrical containers that hold the
material. These cylinders are mounted to a support structure and can
spin thereby aerating the pile inside. It is the most expensive type
out there but requires less effort from the user."

Unless one is frantically busy it should be possible to divert a few
minutes to turning over the compost in a pile or ordinary bin from
time to time.

The money saved would buy quite a few bins and food digesters from
http://www.recyclenow.com/home_composting/index.html. For some
reason Northern Ireland is excluded from the offers there.
