Key Specs
There’s no need to break the bank to start composting. Case in point: this wallet-friendly worm composting kit. For just under $50, you can get a durable, four-tray bin that works year-round to turn food scraps and waste into compost. Because there are so many trays, it can accommodate a decent amount of waste, and there’s plenty of room for worms to travel throughout to process the compost.
Each tray has holes on the bottom for ventilation, and the amount of odor that comes from it is slim compared to some other options. The kit can be placed inside or outside, and it’s simple enough to use, even for those who have never composted before.
Key Specs
This well-designed bin can hold ample compost without taking up a ton of space in your kitchen or yard. With five trays—and the option to add more if need be—this composter can hold up to 10 pounds of worms in total. Once one tray is ready to be emptied of its nutrient-rich compost, worms will travel up throughout the bin to work on the next batch of food scraps.
Each tray has holes to increase airflow and ventilation, but its coconut-fiber lid liner ensures that no odors will escape. What’s more, worms and excess waste won’t be able to escape any of the trays if they happen to get left behind.
The bin has an average rating of 4.6 stars from over 1,000 reviewers who say it’s easy to use and produces a good amount of compost.
