Works Perfectly

I used it to spread fertilizer on 1/3 of an acre and it spread the product evenly. I had to refill once but it was no big deal.

Scott’s is a Cut Above

Don’t exactly know what it is about the formulation of Scott’s products, but their products have ALWAYS produced better results for me for over 30 years. Always worth a few more shekels to buy the good stuff.

BEST spreader ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This spreader is just what I needed. I am no longer able to use a hand crank spreader, and this is perfect. Easy to use, spread evenly, and quick. Just set how far to broadcast, pour the granules, and go!

Easy spreader

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product makes life simpler as a green thumb person. I work a lot so I don’t have the time that I would like for my yard products. With this speaker, I just fill, dial the number that the bag suggest and walk the yard. This is a really good speader

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t believe how easy this is to use. They take all the guess work out of the spreading. It took less then one minute to assemble it from the box. I have only used this for turf builder, but I’m sure it will work for salt as swell. Great proud.

Absolute garbage!
on July 17, 2019

Spreader is entirely made of cheap plastic. Edgeguard broke and cannot reconnect. And similar with many other reviews, LEAVES STREAKS IN YOUR USED TO BE BEAUTIFUL LAWN!!! About a 3-4 foot wide section of light green grass and a 6 inch section of nice dark green. I've tried multiple different ways trying to adjust my overlap - more overlap, less overlap - same results every time! Only good thing is that I've been alternating my pattern I apply fertilizer so now I have stripes in every which direction which now looks like I have a very patchy, but ok lawn instead of my beautiful dark green. This spreader alone has ruined my lawn for this season. Throwing it away and buying a DIFFERENT BRAND spreader and fertilizer for next year.

Clogs easily
on May 29, 2022
Posted by: NiteCourt
I've had this for a few years now. Some Scott's products are fine pieces, require damp grass and during the summer you need to have grass taller. The product clogs becuase the bottom becomes wet. The spreader needs larger wheels to have it up higher from the grass. I have to poke the holes open with a stick quite often.
