Customer Review: AVOID THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I really wanted to like this composter but I had so many problems with it I suggest you do not purchase it. To begin the ads and info on it do not let you know you will have to buy sawdust pellets to keep the ratio of brown to wet items in line. My 1st machine jammed frequently and eventually some of the parts broke off internally guaranteeing that it would never deposit the compost to the lower bin. The foot pedal was useless. It would only raise the lid a few inches and then when I would raise it all the way parts would fall off of the back of the unit. I returned it thinking I had a lemon only to find the second machine had the exact same problems. I babied the machine the second time to be sure but it broke quickly. It does turn items quickly but having to hand feed the machine and getting compost everywhere defeats the purpose. I repeatedly tried to resolve my issues directly with NatureMill who simply gave me the run around until I gave up and returned the product.
Description of NatureMill Pro:Red - Indoor Compost System
How it works: Deposit food waste items at any time, on any day. Add up to 120 lbs (55kg) per month. For best results, cut items into small pieces. Items remain in the upper chamber, with "hot composting" conditions: mixing, air flow, heat, and moisture (see diagram). The energy released destroys odors, pathogens, and seed germination. The compost is later transferred through a trap door to the lower cure tray chamber, where it continues to compost while you add fresh waste items to the upper chamber. No odors, worms, or bugs: Cultures consume waste quickly, without odors. The cultures produce a mild aroma similar to sourdough, mushrooms, or damp straw. Balance the chemistry by adding a small amount of sawdust to increase "brown" content, and baking soda to reduce acidity (both are included). A fan draws air into the machine continuously, providing oxygen to the cultures. A powerful carbon filter removes any lingering odors. Replace the filter every 4-5 years ($8 online, or about $1 if you buy the carbon yourself). Use it anywhere: Fits inside any standard cabinet (cabinet kit sold separately - COMING SOON). Keep it in the kitchen, a garage, or laundry room. Use it outdoors, even in the snow, rain, or freezing temperatures.
