What Customers Are Saying
The Preen Weed Control product received mixed reviews. Many customers found it effective at controlling weeds, especially dandelions, and helping them achieve a lush, weed-free lawn. However, a significant number of users reported the product was ineffective, with weeds continuing to thrive even after proper application. Some were disappointed it did not kill certain weed types. There were also issues with the product being too wet or having large granules, making it difficult to apply properly. Overall, the results seem to vary depending on the specific weeds present and application conditions.

Would RecommendIt went on nicely. Worked great.
Waste of funds and Product
Would Not RecommendThis product has not worked. Followed instructions and has not killed any weeds. This was my first year using it and will be my only time using this product. I expected way more out of Preen. What a waste of money!
It did NOT help.
Would Not RecommendIt did NOT get rid of the weeds. In fact, it appears that it promoted their spread.

I won't buy this product ever again
Would Not RecommendI spent approximately $37.00 for two 20lb bags of this product. I applied it in the morning when the grass was wet with dew. However, not on weed was killed and the product has yet to dissolve. It's over a week now and still it looked like I had just sprinkled it on my lawn. I wish that I could ask for a refund. I'm so upset.
We are sorry to hear of your unusual findings. The product needs to be watered in 24-48 hours after applying. The granules will resolve over time. Pl...

Don't waste your money
Would RecommendThe statement: kills 200 weeds. I guess all my weeds are not a part of that amount. The so-called weed killer didn't do so much as dissolve. $37.00 wasted. I'm beyond PO'd.
We are sorry to hear of your unusual findings. We stand behind our product when applied according to label instructions. You may submit a refund requ...

Rome wasn't built in a day
Would RecommendI'd use this product nine of the last 10 years. You have to treat it like a marathon not a Sprint. The reason I didn't put it down this last year was because I didn't really need it. Give it enough time and it'll work fine for you.
Save your money, try something else
Would Not RecommendThis weed killer was no match for my dandelion crop, it did keep them from springing right back after a mowing. They looked sick for a week but came right back to life. I followed the instructions perfectly, actually put more down than the recommended amount but it’s just not strong enough. Making matters worse, my local stores don’t carry it (like all the Alaska Lowes which are like boutique stores - miniature versions of the real thing) forcing me to use the Lowes home delivery. Free over ...

It's not a weed killer, it's a weed grower.
Would Not RecommendThe product does not work. There are more weeds now than before. Just terrible. I won't buy this product again. It's not a weed killer, it's a weed grower. Just terrible and a waste of my time and money.
