I checked it out and it looks as if it could be my next bin. How
long have you had it outdoors and is it exposed to any amount of sun?

Thanks,

Tom, this is awfully expensive and cost 40 dollars for shipping. The 20 dollar
price is PER level. It is not going to hold up well in sun. They did some
experimentation with plastic compost bins and none of them held up for more
than 4 years without degrading in the sun. Not in the kind of heat we
experience.

Thanks Vic, I was really exploring the concept. John Imrick (sp?)
had some great recycled planters than do hold up well. I'll continue
to look for a similar design but more stable in the sun.
