I'm in the initializing stage, the first week is up on Saturday so I can then open and start adding stuff. So far only a quiet humming, and occasionally some thumping noise while it turns, but nothing annoying and no smells. I have electric current on my decks, so it will go on one of those if I have the same experience. I'm glad I sprung some extra for the 5 year warranty given what you just mentioned about the breakage. But so far, I'm a happy camper.Anna Haighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01322505190424736466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687372.post-78642933724662280192008-07-10T11:12:00.000-07:002008-07-10T11:12:00.000-07:00I've had nothing but problems with my Naturemill (...I've had nothing but problems with my Naturemill (not "pro" edition). Do you find yours very loud and smelly? It is so much so that we have to leave the unit outside - it's intolerable. <BR/><BR/>And the unit has had various broken parts - twice. :( I've had it since February.Chung Nguyenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00927477178826255125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687372.post-27188852297045489552008-07-09T18:16:00.000-07:002008-07-09T18:16:00.000-07:00Neat idea, Anna.

It has a 3 year warranty and the filter lasts 5 yrs. The upside is really, very little tending and no spoiling as it does the work according to its monitoring of conditions. If you have space in your garden, then there are other products that require some work, but work better than just the pile, and are cheaper. I'm just a beginner in this, and there is lots out on the net about composting methods and support. With room outside, worm composting becomes a viable option as well.Anna Haighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01322505190424736466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687372.post-83654041110309989212008-07-09T06:08:00.000-07:002008-07-09T06:08:00.000-07:00Sounds very interesting.

How expensive was it and where did you get it? <BR/><BR/>I do have a big compost pile in my garden, but mostly it just sits there, I hardly ever put any of the composted stuff on the garden! And of course I don't traipse out there in the snow and put scraps on the pile!Kalyn Dennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02499065771517548587noreply@blogger.com
