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

Love craftsman! I'm obsessed with my collection

I love my craftsman products! I have always been a lowes girl and love the products they offer.

Very well-designed!

This spreader has a large capacity yet us easy to handle and works well whether your spreading small seeds or larger rock salt. Coverage is very uniform.

Excellent Choice!

Excellent tool! I purchased this a month ago and it is great!

works well for seed and fertilizer

did not use

Did not use! Returned it to Lowes 09/09/2026.

love this equipment

Small and straight forward

Great for weed control and fertilizing my yard. Small so easy to store.

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
