|  | Compost Factory The World's Only
Continuous/Tumbling Composter
These hybrid composters combine the speed of a batch composter with the ease and steady output of a bin. The Compost Factories are easy-turning, fast-cooking composters that let you add waste every day, and harvest the finished compost at any time. Like many
revolutionary ideas, the concept is brilliantly simple: as yard waste breaks down, it moves to the back of the main drum and as the composter fills, material enters a smaller inner drum for final "aging." This two-stage process happens automatically as you rotate the drum, and the finished compost is automatically discharged out the exit port.
The Compost Factories are loaded with details that make it a breeze to use. A sliding hatch opens with one hand and can't blow away or
spring open unexpectedly. The sturdy, wobble-free base is fitted with enclosed end bearings for the drum to turn on, so rotating is easy, even when it's loaded.
These items are oversized - the Compost Factory has a $15 additional shipping charge and the Large Compost Factory $40
