I would of bought a tumbling composter - but this works fine for it's purpose. I have a lot of "turning" the compost matter over with a pitchfork; which is really a pain. 
It does hold up well against the elements (Pacific Northwest) with rain. No snow in the last couple of years. 
When reattaching the lid to the bin, just make sure that you have it correctly oriented otherwise it won't stay put.
