This was a 2-person assembly job trying to follow unclear graphics, no written instructions. Parts are not lettered or marked. What looks like horizontal air vents in photo are NOT air openings -- just ribs in the molded design. Entire top lifts off when lifting the hinged lid. I'll have to try some duct tape or other adhesive to hold it. Save your money and cut the bottom out of HDPE garbage can with a utility knife and drill some air holes in the sides. If this hadn't been such an ordeal in assembly and heavy, I would return it. I have a feeling that 'brown' leaves and twigs and 'green' kitchen scraps, fresh plants will never compost due to no air flow and moisture. So far, disappointed.

Very solid. It took a few attempts to get all the sections in the right place when assembling. The parts look symmetric but are not, instructions confusing. Found cover off one day Was not sure if it was wind or animals, two bungies with small enough hooks to fit it vetilstion slots keep cover on since. Very pleased with product.

For a back gardener it dose the job.

It's needs a better top door to keep It close and It's needs to be brace from the wind,so it won't be blown over by the wind. everthing else about it I like.
