Prosper Plast IKST380Z-G851 71.9 x 71.9 x 82.6 cm Compogreen Composter - Green (6-Piece)

I ordered this despite the negative reviews about it being hard to put together. If you understand two things about putting it together you will be fine.1. The fasteners needed to hold it together are inside the lid.2. The fasteners need to be positioned so the hook (or eye end) go over the side tabs first. The tabs on the sides need to be held together quite closely so the fasteners can snap on and down. It might be worth getting someone to help to hold the sides together so you can get the fasteners on easily.There is a video on YouTube showing someone snap the fasteners on in seconds, it's not that easy but does show you how! I wish I'd looked at that first as it would've saved me some time.I only got this yesterday but it looks sturdy enough and I'm sure now it's up it'll work just fine.

Where do I start....Rough cut and the putting together is most certainly not easy. The reason for this is that the joints have gaps after you clip together, the holes for the lid hinges are all off leaving you to reset them as best you can. The 2 part lid is again badly designed only allowing you to lift it as one unit even though your ment to be able to lift in half but this causes the hinges to pop out. Then when I tried to clip it down the thin plastic bar snapped. Not what it says on the tin.....I should have realised with the packaging two boxes one just enough to cover inside the outer box and tapped together with cheap household clear tape. This looks like somebody who bought a few regects for very little money and has the cheek to add vat for this is beyond criminal. ..Dell BOY is alive and well

This product was very disappointing. There were no written instructions regarding putting it together but rather a very tiny photo on the side of the packaging. Getting it together takes two people. The product itself is poorly made of very thin plastic, and I had to resort to making a hole for the brad to go through on one side for the lid as there was not one present and clearly should have been to attach the lid.As it is marketed as a composter I would have expected a more robust product at the £47 selling price and will be very surprised if it proves fit for purpose.

I wouldn't buy this bin again. The flat-pack design is very clever (and not hard to put together, unlike some other reviews claim) but it is let down by the weak plastic which isn't fit for home delivery.When I opened the box, the bottom contained many little bits of plastic that had snapped of here and there. One side panel has a large tear in it that's probably going to get bigger as I fill in the bin he contents pushes on the side. Time will tell...I should point out that this isn't the couriers fault. The outside of the box was in good condition, with no sign of having been dropped or otherwise mistreated. The plastic is just very brittle.

Pretty terrible all round. Infact it's awful. Terrible quality (already cracked). Hard to put together (simple design, but fiddly and fragile). Lid not at all secure despite substantial looking catch (which does not properly align). Good ventilation on sides, but top is not at all weatherproof, compost will be washed through by rain regularly. No easy way of securing to the ground, which considering it weighs nothing, means it will very likely be blown around our garden.Very disappointed. Wouldn't wish it on a most hated enemy for half the price

At first impressions this is a good composter for the price. Oxid7 provided good tracking of the delivery from Germany, and it arrived within the indicated timeframe. It arrives flat packed, partly thanks to the notes from other buyers about the catches being in the lid, it was easy to put together in less than 5 minutes (just needed to line up the sides well and a little strength). I like the square shape as this is more practical for my garden than the round plastic composters. Only 4 stars as the plastic catch on the lid was broken - although this does not impact the use of the composter.

As others have pointed out it can be difficult to assemble, and although the instructions were minimal that wasn't the problem, I knew what to do, it was just very difficult to manipulate the clips into position. I found some of the clips to be much easier than others, they were looser and some of the edges of the flat pack pieces fit better. I reckon the different experiences from buyers probably reflects variations in manufacturing, it doesn't seem to be that precise. The trick for me seemed to be to go in at an angle not quite perpendicular but at least 60 degrees (to take advantage of the tapered gap) and from the side angling inwards to get it over the thicker half. You need strong and tough fingers. Asides from that easy to assemble and looks good in the garden.

Easy to assemble if you warm up the clips.Seems good enough to me and hopefully will last the test of time. Bought 3 in the end so I can do a 3 year compost cycle
