easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This spreader is nice because it keeps what you are spreading from going into plants and shrubs. Does a nice job doing the property line too. Although it is a little smaller than my other Scotts spreader it makes it a little easier to use because I am not pushing as heavy a load. I still cannot put enough in either spreader to cover even my front yard.

I love my Scotts Turf Builder Edgeguard Mini Broadcast Spreader. It has a dial for accurate dispensing and it also has an edge guard if you want to use that. I use it for both seed and fertilizer.

Disappointed

Just purchased Scotts Classic Drop Spreader. Discovered the setting changed while applying fertilizer; the dial would rotate and not stay on the setting. Then discovered fertilizer granulates got trapped between the slider plate and the feed slots, so fertilizer kept running out when I pushed the spreader over stones & concrete from my back yard to my front yard.gtx68

Disappointed in the spreader
on October 11, 2024
Posted by: Lous
This spreader is not like previous versions of Scott’s drop spreader. Previously I used an entire 5,000 sq ft bag of each step of Scott’s fertilizer in its entirety with my old spreader. Now, with going by the same recommendation, barely a half of bag is used on the same area…barely any fertilizer is dropping. I am thoroughly disappointed with my new spreader and will be looking for another brand!

Disgusted

I bought this Scotts Drop Spreader about 6 weeks ago and tried to use it yesterday for the first time to no avail. I calibrated it as per Scotts instructions, yet once I loaded it up with Scotts Winterizer fertilizer, the right wheel would not turn. I emptied it to check for any lumps but there were none. So this drop spreader works fine with nothing in the hopper but put Scotts fertilizer in the hopper and it fails miserably!

Drops granules without pulling trigger handle
on November 11, 2024
Posted by: Doug H
I bought this spread awhile back and just now used it for the first time. Seems solid but the issue I have is fertilizer drops out constantly regardless if I'm pulling the trigger handle or not. Come to find out the release bar on the bottom of the spreader has a gap between it and the bottom allowing granuals to drop out all the time. I see no adjustments for this and can't think of a way to rig it to fill that gap. Disappointed as I've had good luck with scotts products in the past.
