I have one, Polly.

If you can get your hands on some pallets, you can make your own for peanuts.
They don't smell, at least mine doesn't. If you're going to add things like crab shells, then it will for a while unless it's buried deep.

Lots of things can vary the time it takes to rot down. Time of year, what you're composting, how many worms are in there, how deep it is etc. etc.

Try to avoid getting one like this...

I personally wouldn't. Although that one looks like it could withstand strong winds better, it's still fully enclosed. I find having slatted wood is best as air gets to it far more.

Adding urine will also speed things up. You can also get a compost accelerator
