Additional features
If you live in a cooler climate, and wish you could extend your composting season, you've got to meet the Joraform 70 Gallon 270 Compost Tumbler. Composting generates heat and the different micro-organisms start working at different temperatures. The insulated design allows the temperature to rise higher than 160 degrees F, resulting in the quickest, most efficient composting of your organic kitchen waste. These warmer temperatures create a composting process so fast that fresh waste starts to break down before it even has a chance to rot or attract rodents or flies. Thanks to this insulate design, the Joraform will keep working through winter, long after many composters are in hibernation.
The Joraform is divided into two compartments. Fill one while the compost in the other side matures. Once the side you're filling is at capacity, you can empty the mature compost from the other side, and begin again. It's also rodent proof. The Joraform sits off the ground so rodents and other pests simply can't gain access to what's inside. You can mount this on wall, too. Wall mount included - you just need a few screws.
Be sure to rotate your Joraform on a regular basis. Regular mixing is necessary for successful composting. Fresh waste is brought into direct contact with decaying waste, increasing the efficiency of the composting process. Also, air gets into the mixture, providing the much-needed oxygen that's vital to the process.

[...]. I did need to replace some of the hardware but once assembled the unit is durable and attractive. Now for the good part. Within one week steam poured from the vent holes as the compost temperature increased. It is clear that this composter will work very effectively. I was disappointed with the initial setup as I felt for such a price one should not have such issues, but now I am pleased with the result and would buy the product again. I have recommended this product to family and friends.

I was excited about this product as it looked to be high quality. I'm tired of buying cheap Chinese junk so I shopped around for what I though was a product from Sweden. [...] took 1.5 hours to assemble. Open box to see "designed in Sweden, made in China". Instructions were very poor. Many parts were machined poorly. Several pieces of hardware are unusable (screw heads full of metal) and will require a trip to the hardware store to replace. Several pieces had very sharp edges from poor manufacture (both my wife and I were cut significantly during assembly. It looks like it will do the job but should cost about half as much. We shall see how the parts survive the elements. For that much money you would expect some quality control and at least be able to finish the assembly without a trip to the hardware store. Frustrating.

Watch the you tube video on installation before you open the packages. You'll save yourself much heartache. You must have two people to put this thing together. But once you're finished you will have the BEST Composter on the market!

Comments about Joraform 70 Gallon 270 Compost Tumbler:
After reading several reviews on assembly of the unit I wasn't looking forward to putting it together but after watching the video on assembly it was very easy. It showed step by step procedure. The only thing was two new pieces were added for old ones and so the video was showing the old pieces so I thought I was missing the two pieces. So far I am extremely happy with the compost unit.

Comments about Joraform 70 Gallon 270 Compost Tumbler:
Very prompt delivery - much sooner than I had anticipated - and the two boxes arrived in perfect condition. Had trouble with installation (my error)and spoke to a Hayneedle representative. After explaining my problem I was immediately connected with the Joraform distributor who resolved my issue and gave additional helpful advice and a contact phone number should I ever need further support. Although all the parts fit together without modification, this is not an easy installation and requires two people for assembly, especially to put on the panels and doors.
