My experience with a compost tumbler is that I have to be quite picky with the input mix to prevent it from matting up into compost pellets that tumble around and around without breaking up at all. More to the point, I don't know how to get a working input mix reliably. I'd send you my compost tumbler, except it's heavy and big.

For me the determining question about food-waste composters is whether anyone (you or neighbors) is going to be close enough to be picky about smell, raccoons and rats picking through it it, and other minor annoyances. If not, a fenced heap works fine for me. If so... a ratproofed Green Cone apparently works well, but in Seattle it's easier to let the city compost my food waste and I do the yard waste.
