A compact 320 liter composter will fit well even in a small corner of the backyard. Outwardly, it seems small, but vegetable and food waste quickly decreases in volume, the capacity is good.

The plastic is thick and dense, winters on the street without loss of strength. The design is complemented by orange color on a black background, the model looks pretty. But the side mounts immediately need to be strengthened. Under the pressure of the compost, they are separated, even when the tank is partially filled.

Israeli-made garden composter for a small dacha. The design is unusual - two rotating containers mounted on a metal stand. The doors are sliding, easily shifted to the side, but at the same time they close more tightly than a regular lid. The rotation of the containers is done to evenly mix the waste to accelerate the maturation of the fertilizer. This is also helped by a well-thought-out internal ventilation system. From user reviews, it is clear that the model is convenient and efficient, but 210 liters is enough for a very small cottage, since the amount of waste is greater and the need for fertilizer is higher. But they consider the rotating construction and design to be a plus. The model can be advised to residents of private houses with a small adjacent plot of land.
