Not a precision tool, but can spread stuff even
Would RecommendNot very precise if you are trying to do things accurately as both your hand cranking and walking speed wildly affect the distribution of the seed/fertilizer. If you are planting new grass seed it also doesn’t spit out enough so you have to stand in one spot a while. Main benefit is doing a reasonably good job with an even distribution and it’s up to you to kind of judge how fast to go.

Pretty good little spreader
Would RecommendWorks pretty well. Just make sure your seed is not clumped up, because the spreader will jam
