Advantages - Really short composting cycles - only fourteen days! - Super easy to use - just plug it in, throw your food waste in, and the Naturemill finishes the job - No smelly composting in your house or yard - The Naturemill has a very faint soil-like odor, however I think it is actually rather enjoyable. Even if you don't... simply set the composter on a veranda or deck. - Small - Consumes a small amount of space relative to a standard compost pile - Warranties - 1yr and 3 year warranties are pretty nice too Downsides - Cost - At $299 or $399 the Naturemill is a whole lot more costly when compared with various other composting solutions like worm composting, Bokashi composting, or simply your traditional backyard compost pile - Longevity - This is anecdotal, however a relative of mine had a Naturemill and sadly the composter broke on him... twice. That was more than a year in the past, so the newer models might be superior (additionally you get the warranty). Full Evaluation Naturemill's in house composting machine is a modest in house appliance which enables almost every household to start composting their food waste with little to no work. You simply acquire a Naturemill composter, connect it to an outlet in your house, and put your food within it.

Particulars 1) Cost & Models - There are 2 types of the machine, the Plus XE which is two-hundred and ninety-nine dollars and the Pro XE that is three-hundred and ninety-nine dollars. When you buy the composter direct through Naturemill's internet site they'll deliver at no cost. 2) Size - The Naturemill composter is 20" high x 20" deep x 12" broad and weighs 17 pounds. 3) What it Accepts - All food scraps, however Naturemill advises avoiding very hard objects like bone fragments, and fiberous objects such as corn cobs and corn husks. There is not a note regarding whether the Naturemill can handle compostable food ware like biodegradable coffee cups. 4) Composting - Compost is created about once each and every 14 days and an indicator light signals when to take out the compost. The compost is at this time all set to be used. 5) Installing - No installing is necessary, you simply connect the composter directly into a standard energy outlet. 6) Power Consumption - Naturemill reports the power use of the composter at 5 kwh per month or as much as a standard night light.
