Spare parts for my Hotbin
Squirrels had gnawed the vent on my Hotbin meaning it didn’t heat up. I emailed Customer Services for advice and was told I could buy replacement parts. They told me which to buy and provided a link. My Hotbin is now working again for a very reasonable cost. Thank you

Excellent product
Excellent product, has already started producing liquid feed.
Delivery was great and setting up quite easy. Had to be a little careful in placing the hotbin as it is light - unlike Lincolnshire winds.

Appreciate the review, thank you! Brilliant to hear you’re already getting liquid feed (water it down approx. 10:1) and that delivery and setup were smooth.
And yes… those Lincolnshire winds don’t mess about! Great tip to site it somewhere sheltered/secure (a shady area is fine too). Don't worry I am sure the HOTBIN will feel more planted once it had a couple of weeks of waste added. Happy hot composting!

Buying a second HOTBIN, love this!
Great to hear your first HOTBIN has been giving you VERY SPEEDY compost (sounds like the old dalek bins have been left in the slow lane). Good to hear delivery was speedy too, your garden is very lucky to be benefiting from so much lovely compost!
Prompt delivery
Prompt delivery, easily assembled and temperature at a good level after one week. Only had it 2.5 weeks so can’t comment on the output yet.

Thanks for the review, sounds like you are off to a really good start! Prompt delivery, easy assembly, and a good temperature after just one week is exactly where you want to be, good work.
You're right, two and half week is far too early to judge the finished compost (the first batch normally takes around 90 days). Just keep feeding little and often with your kitchen and garden waste (greens/browns) and this should keep the temperature high and your heap happy.
FYI - We’ll send a separate PRODUCT review in around 7-8 weeks, once you’ve had time to get your HOTBIN running, build your heap, and see how it performs.
Sturdy well made hot composter
Sturdy well made hot composter. Lid fits firmly and keeps flies out. Very pleased with it so far.

Thanks for the great review, really pleased you’re happy with how sturdy the HOTBIN feels - keeping the flies out is always a bonus!
Just to clarify for readers on the material too: HOTBIN is made from ARPRO® an expanded polypropylene (EPP), it can look similar at a glance, but it’s not polystyrene.
EPP is tough and impact-resistant, so it’s built to last outdoors. And because it’s also highly insulating, it helps the HOTBIN hold the heat needed for effective hot composting.
Happy hot composting
This is a solid and well-built unit
This is a solid and well-built unit, especially considering the material it’s made from. It arrived quickly and was securely packaged.
It’s more labour-intensive than a traditional cold compost bin. It requires you to chop materials into small pieces before adding them, which can be time-consuming. I’ve also found it quite difficult to get the unit to reach the recommended temperature, which has been a bit frustrating.
That said, I’m hopeful that it will become easier to use and more effective over time as I get more familiar with the process.

Thanks for the review fab to hear it arrived quickly, well packaged, and feels solid and well built.
Hot composting can feel a little more “hands-on” at the start but the reward are composting in 90 days and no turning etc. The good news is you don’t need to chop everything so small forever, it’s mainly the first few weeks while you’re building the active core. Once it’s established, it becomes much more forgiving, chopping does help the bacteria digest your waste efficiently though.
On the temperature, the most common blockers are:
Not enough volume yet (it usually needs to be at least half full to build a proper hot zone 40°C plus)
Mix balance (too wet = cool/sluggish, too dry = slow; a steady add of shredded paper/cardboard + woodchip does help)
Thermometer position (internal probe into the active centre gives the true reading)
Important to note. You can still produce a good balanced compost in 90 days if you average 30°C for 3 months. Once it’s in its stride, it should feel a lot less like hard work and a lot more like “add waste, make compost.” Hope this helps.

U was helped find my parcel as one part went missing through the del company
The item was well packed but I did not use the item as my husband passed away sadly
Hot bin had the item back but sadly I list £50 on it for returning the item this was a charge for collection which was al lot for me at the sad time but I would not of been able to use

We're so sorry to hear about your husband’s passing, thank you for sharing that, and please accept our sincere condolences.
I’m glad our team was able to help track down the missing part and that everything arrived well packed, but I completely understand why you weren’t able to use it.
Great customer service. Too soon to tell if it makes compost.
Ordering and delivery were super quick and easy. I still haven’t managed to get the bin to heat up, although I’ve started it up from scratch twice now. I thought I’d followed all the instructions. It’s an attractive piece of garden furniture, does not attract flies, and so can be placed nearer the house than my other compost bins. It’s too soon to say how effective it will be. (It might be quite hard work.)

Thanks for such a thoughtful review really pleased to hear you found ordering and delivery were quick and easy.
On the heat: don’t worry, you’re not alone (some trail and error is needed) if it hasn’t warmed up after two restarts, it’s usually something simple we can troubleshoot. The two biggest checks are:
Is the HOTBIN at least half full? You need that volume for the “hot” zone to build.
Are you using the internal thermometer for an accurate reading? (The lid gauge can be a bit optimistic/pessimistic depending on conditions.)
If you have an lawn clippings mix in approx. 20 ltrs with some shredded paper and give it a stir - This should also help to give the temp a bit of a boost.
If you’d like, please drop our support team a message with what you’re adding (roughly how often, and whether you’re adding shredded paper/woodchip) and we’ll help you get it properly cooking, without it feeling like hard work. Once it’s up and running, it should be much more “feed it and forget it” than “hard work in the garden”!
Easy to order
Easy to order. Easy to get going. Looks neat and tidy. Very effective at making compost.

Thanks for the lovely review, HOTBIN does make a great gift idea! 🎁
20°C is a good start while things are it’s bedding in. You'll typically see 40°C once the bin is half full and you check the temp with the internal heap thermometer. Just keep adding waste, a little bit of grass goes a long way to boost the temperature. Keep adding a mix (a bit of “dry browns” like shredded paper/cardboard with the wetter waste), you should see the temperature climb further. If you’d like some more quick tips, hit the website Support>Get Composting pages or just give us a shout on our free phone number. Happy hot composting!
