Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This expandable system operates the same as the other stacking tray units that we offer. However, the quality of the plastic and the space saving contemporary design truly set it apart from all other vermiculture systems on the market. Made to resemble weathered stone, the Worm Chalet will compliment any garden or patio setting. Light weight, interchangeable, grip slotted trays are easily added or removed for harvesting or quick cleaning. Bottom liquid catchment level features a spigot (not pictured in prototype) for nutritious tea collection. Triple wall design features an insulating air core layer that operates as a passive climate control mechanism, moderating temperature fluctuations. Most folks will proudly show off this incredible new unit, rather than stash it away in the pantry, laundry room or garage. Tapered lid prevents water pooling. Protection from direct sun and extreme temperatures is required for optimum performance and worm happiness. Additional PIC showing inside of frame

Well I guess I'm not the only one looking for extra trays for this worm bin. The trays are too shallow. I don't have to worry about weather changes, I just have to transfer trays and half-eaten compost all the time. The spigot is always clogged. I gave up and have to unstack the whole thing and just dump the tea into a bucket. A very messy and smelly process. And the tea does leak into the legs. I too drilled holes but I would prefer not wasting the "liquid gold" on the concrete behind the house. I have to buy another one but I'm gonna try a different, less-expensive model.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not expandable!
I bought this a few years ago when I wanted to move from the large tub-like vermi-composting system I was using. Since I had never used anything like this, I bought this system with the intention of trying it out and if it worked well, I would expand it into more trays.

It works well but there is NO SUCH THING as expandable trays! If you buy this, it's all you'll get. I have been looking for 18 months. At one point suppliers would tell me the extra bins were on backorder, and now they just say they are not getting any.

In terms of the bin itself, it works pretty well, ... Read More
