the first tool that will completly turn & mix the compost in my bins without having to empty them. ideal.

Ron Crisp, Composting Advisor, Rossendale wrote this 5 star review on 04 May 2009

I have been using a 'propeller-type' aerator for a while, with wings which fold in as the tool is pushed 'in' and open to pull at the compost as pulled out - but it's not a patch on my new (imported) 'Compost Mate' from WW.
Not only is it a great tool for aerating from above but, on 'Dalek' compost-bins with their small access doors, it's a boon for dragging out the finished but impacted compost from low down in the bin. But do KNEEL down and use the tool horizontally or back-ache will result !
(Oh, and by the way - don't try to bring one back from Oz as hand-luggage, as I did: it was classed as 'dangerous goods' and I never saw it again. I hope it went to a good (composting) home.......)

A brilliant tool but quite hard work to pull out of the compost bin fully loaded.

This tool is the best compost turning tool I have used. It is strong and easy to use. If you screw it in too far and cannot lift up the plug of material, you unscrew a little bit and try lifting again. I am a strong chap and easily break stuff... this has survived a lot of heavy use.
The only disadvantage is that they are made in Australia and shipped over.... but hopefully the benefits of stirring your heap and therefore people being able to compost more will outweigh these carbon emissions...

Its brilliant! A must have for plastic compost bins

If you own a plastic compost bin then you know how hard it is to turn the compost. A compost mate makes this so much easier and by mixing up the compost allows the air in so you get really nice, usable compost in a lot less time.
