Let worms do the work, transforming your food scraps into nutrient-rich fertilizer. It's a fun project that's good for the earth, too, by keeping food scraps out of the landfill. The stylish shape and choice of colors make the Worm Farm Composter at home in a kitchen, mudroom, hallway or pantry. Once the process gets underway you can add up to a half pound of scraps per day to the worm composter, about the average food waste for a family of four. When setting up your worm composter keep in mind that 68 degrees F. is the ideal temperature. The Worm Farm Composter comes with two trays. When the bottom one fills up, the worms move up to the top tray. Allow the compost in the bottom tray to mature for about a month while you add your food scraps to the top tray. Use the included scoop to empty the finished compost and repeat the process as necessary. Use the spigot on the bottom to dispense nutrient-rich compost tea for use on houseplants and garden plants.

After much debate I decided to enter the world of Worm composting- I purchased this particular product after being unsuccessful finding a suitable wood version. This one arrived several days after ordering and was very easy to assemble.Instructions are pretty clear and I watched their included videos online.I would recommend to a beginner Worm composter.I keep it in my mudroom and add scraps daily, and new bedding weekly. Be aware that because it is made from plastic there is no need to add additional moisture. I even added additional small holes in lid to add increased air flow

It looks nice and was recommended to me by a friend who had a great experience with it. I'm not sure if something is wrong with ours or if it's the design, but there is a gap of a couple of millimeters between the bottom tray and the composting tray (occurs with both trays), large enough for the worms to escape, so I have to wrap the junction with plastic wrap and even then they try to get out (see picture). The two trays fit together well though, but my compost is not mature enough yet for me to add the upper tray. NOTE: I have been storing it indoors away from direct light, it's just outdoors in the picture because I was trying to do some cleanup.I keep hoping this will stop but we've had the product set up for about 6 weeks now.

The worm composter is a really cool item. I first learned about compost worms at a library program and wanted to try it with my husband as we are gardeners. So for Christmas I ordered him a kit. Several suggestions: Simplify your instructions to give a step by step process of putting this together. The present ones are confusing and very busy. Section off what you need to feed the worms and what not to feed them. Include in your instructions that you have a helpful video clip on your site that is quite helpful. The instructions say that you should have approximately 250-300 worms in your tier, the worms that were sent were 1000 and said that if you did not need all of them that they would take them back.

You need to let customers know that they are to put there compost scraps in the top tier so that the worms climb up to the top rather than put them in the bottom where you start off with the worms. It is very confusing for the novice wormer. It is an excellent product, but the instructions need to be more clear for the customer and also for the customer service person that is trying to help us answer our questions. Do you need to wash the filter or replace it after a time? Wouldn't the filter stink if you did not clean it with this worm pee going through?

I just harvested my first batch of compost. I rarely needed to add any water. The environment seems to self humidify. No escapes or issues with smell. I like how well thought through the engineering was on this unit. Trays don't line up perfectly, but the worms don't seem to mind a little air flow.
I received product and it was as expected from the package. Easy to put together. Once I started using it though, I had some issues. I am unable to get worm tea from the bottom container through the drain. My bottom container is full of liquid but will not drain from open drain valve. I have tried clearing it to see if there is something blocking it and there is nothing. Also, mine is fairly messy and I could never keep it inside as they suggest you can. I'm debating if I even want it in my basement. Overall, the concept seems neat but I am a little disappointed with mine.
I'm just not sure about this product yet, although I'm very hopeful. I carefully set up the inside with moistened crumpled paper and kitchen scraps, but after a few hours I saw that many worms had escaped and were dead or dying. I felt terrible! I admit I did not purchase the special worms the instructions suggested. I used my (formerly) very healthy, vigorous back yard worms.I'm trying again only this time I added some back yard dirt, and this seems to be working better. I do see some mold forming on some of the food scraps. Not sure if this means I don't have enough worms to process the food or moisture level is wrong? Guess I'll know better in a couple of months how it's working out.
I have been vermicomposting at home, at work, and with local school kids for almost a decade. I typically use the Can-O-Worms unit (which I can highly recommend). I decided to try out this 'Worm Farm Composter' unit for my outreach programs this year, since the design looked so cute. However, after using it for the last 6 months, I would NOT recommend this unit.The Issues: The mesh liner (separates the worm bins from liquid reservoir at the bottom) disintegrated within a month or two of use & seems to prevent liquid from reaching the reservoir; the bins/lid can have spaces & do not close particularly well (I did not have escapees, but this does lend itself to the problem); the air holes on top are very small & do not seem to be adequate (I also widened them on one ...

The largest problem is that the entire unit does not drain liquid very well....this causes your bedding (I use coconut coir) to become overly saturated & yet almost no liquid (worm tea) makes it's way out of the unit. This really compacts each level & is not a very comfortable environment for the worms. Typically, this is when worms try to escape - when their environment is overly wet, overly dry, wrong foodstock....I really loved the design of this composter, however, the design flaws are such that I will no longer purchase additional ones (in fact, I am having to re-order some new worm-composters for one of my school & I am going back to the Can-o-Worms unit).
Love this! It is sturdy, nicely compact & odor free. No leaks from the tap at the bottom (Warning: it took quite a bit of elbow grease to screw it in). When I lift the sections to add ingredients, it's a terrifically fun version of an Indiana Jones scene with worms hanging out if the bottom holes. A suggestion for improvement is to rework the filter screening the bottom tank. The two tabs at either end must have been very tasty, as the few worms that made it down to that level devoured them in no time flat. Now I have to use a screwdriver to pry it out. I do recommend that you keep some water in the bottom. I found several worms down there that seemed to have taken a little dip & were climbing their way back up to the good stuff.

I received this worm farm for Christmas(I did ask for one). It was easy to assemble and looks cute in the kitchen. Despite following directions: moistened shredded paper and cardboard, and kitchen scraps for worms, I am disappointed that they can crawl out between the layers of the bins. adding water to the bottom bin is a good idea as one previous reviewer suggested. In the mean time I have added window dealer along the edges of the bins to help keep them in, although it does worry me if that allows for enough air circulation. There are air holes on the top bin that allows air in so I can only hope enough. I would rather find ways to keep them in than have them crawl out only to die on my kitchen floor.
