Ratings & Reviews for CRAFTSMAN Handheld Spreader 5-lb Capacity Compatible with Ice Melt, Salt, Fertilizer, Seed

Have not used it much but it looks to be very well made

Dispenses too much too fast.

Even with all controls set to minimum and walking as fast as I can, small sized granules dispense at least 2 to 3 times more than recommended product coverage rate.

Spreads both grass seed and fertilizer with ease.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little battery spreader does an amazing job throwing grass seed and fertilizer. I wanted to overseed my lawn this year to fill in some bare spots some patchy spots in my lawn and didn't want to haul out the big manual push spreader. This little spreader does an amazing job throwing grass seed and milorganite fertilizer. It's easy to use and perfect for smaller lawns or areas. I like how the agitator speed is separate from the drop down ...

Spreader

This is a great spreader, heavyweight and light, very durable. I didn’t want to buy it because it doesn’t come with a battery and charger. Kind of pricey 200 dollars plus for the whole setup. Luckily o have and crazy man drill, so I already Thad the battery and charger, knowing what I know now after using it, I would buy the hold setup

Awesome Spreader

Buy it you won't be disappointed!

Spreader

I have 10 acres so it feels I'm always seeding grass, putting down fertilizer and putting out insect control in my dog yard. It's just nice have this spreader to make the jobs easier. Easy to control and just streamlines the process. With it now being powered, my coverage seems much more consistent

Great concept with 4.0 Battery

Had issues with this product had to return two times, 1st the swivel piece inside can out while in use, would not stay on. Next, while in use the entire system should down and the sliding door would not open. Until improvement are made will not purchase again. All were first time use.

Works Great

Easy to use and spread fertilizer insecticides etc

Really speeds up the process

Works great

Works great

Small and works for numerous materials

Great little 5lb spreader.

Perfect spreader for small to medium sized areas. We do not have a big front yard so I have no need for one of the larger push style spreaders. I already have Craftsman tools and with this being on sale it was a no brainer to scoop it up. This thing works flawlessly with grass seed and fertilizer. I like the dual adjustment for the door opening on the bottom and for the mixing speed for agitator to keep everything flowing. Even with 5lbs of seed inside it's still easy to carry and use. Eve...

Ditch the push spreader and pull the trigger

This product spreads like no other! The feed selector is easy to use and understand. The hopper is just large enough that is holds a decent amount of product without being too over weighted. I used this to spread grass seed and when you kick the dial up to high, it felt like it was being tossed into another county!!!! I can't wait to see what it does for ice melt, but for grass seed and fertilizer, it beats hand tossing or pushing a spreader around

Good product

Its perfect spreads far and easy

Convenient

I like the different settings it has for seed, ice melt, fertilizer etc

Makes spreading that much easier.

Nice spreader

This spreader is very nice. It spread my weed and feed, with no problems ! It uses the V20 batteries

Great for small yards

I bought this to replace a hand crank version of a similar spreader and the powered version is much easier to use because it does not keep doping fertilizer when you stop and is much more consistent in the spread.
