Much easier to use compared to other spreaders I have owned.

This spreader is the easily the best that I have used. It is light weight, holds a lot of product, easy to set the spread rate and has a side guard. It does not spray you with product as you walk. I have always had to add a shield to prevent that on past spreaders. I would like to see larger pads on the resting bars.

I loved this spreader easy to put together and wheels are so big it was easy too use, I highly recommend this product, I had a small one but this size is a game changer.

had to return twice. First the spinner wasn't connected to axle. Second, the inner tube in tire was punctured. Tried to fix but could not replace tire on plastic rim. Was very unimpressed!!

Really good spreader. Head and shoulders above the Scotts branded models. The only downside, is the agitator does not clear the hopper completely on its own. You have to kind of shale the unit so all of the prills fall into the lowest point of the spreader. I love the pneumatic tires and the overall size of the unit, especially since I am fairly tall. This unit seems to be right on the edge of being a full commercial model, but it is ideal for any small landscaping crew or homeowner.

Worked great first use, second time the door mechanism jammed open due to design. Had to empty hopper and clean it out before continuing on. Not a great design….disappointed to say the least.

great spreader
The spreader is great and well built. The only thing I would change is the agitator, once the fertilizer gets low you have to shake the spreader to get the rest out

      poor quality hardware
      I purchased a spreader that was middle of the road pricewise. I could’ve purchased something cheaper, but I wanted something that would last. There are only four parts that are required to put the handle together. Two bolts and two plastic t handled connectors. One of the t handled connector threads were bad from the get-go. I couldn’t get it yo thread properly. I’m returning it.

        Could not push after filled with product (1 50lb bag fertilizer). Agitator broke after first use. Had to return, customer service was great.

        Unfortunately small fertilizer pellets get between the two metering plates and that jams the drop feed.
