What Customers Are Saying

The product appears to have mixed performance. While some customers report it is easy to use and effectively spreads fertilizer and seed, many others have experienced issues. The spreader frequently leaves uneven, striped patterns on the lawn due to a design flaw. The plastic components are prone to breaking or wearing out quickly. The calibration and settings are often inaccurate, causing customers to use too much or too little product. The Edgeguard feature is unreliable and frequently malfunctions.

Works decent, hard to know exactly what settings and all to use because it’s dependent on how fast you walk, how fast you spin, and how high up you are could even affect how much it spreads. So it’s not an exact applicator but disperses more uniformly then I do throwing out by hand.

Second, they used to be built a lot more sturdy. sure these "fold down" for storage, but a screw nob and bolt on both sides of the handle bar connecting to the lower trough is just dumb. This is why there are problems delivering a whole complete unit. These screw knobs and ...

The spreader is fine. The weak part of the mechanism is the drive axle and gearing to the hopper agitator. It seems to be fine for light weight fertilizers. Heavier weight products are harder on this mechanism.

Spreader

The spreader was pre-assembled and so easy to set up. The instructions were clear on how to set it so the correct amount of halts was applied. So far so good!
