Top reviews from the United States

  • Works perfect
    I love it. Holds enough to do a 6 car driveway without having to refill. Sprays it evenly so you don’t waste product.
  • Better than using your hand
    It so good
  • WARNING TOTAL JUNK! DON'T BUY!!!!!!
    Total junk. Doesn't spread ice melt properly. Constantly jams. Also, it broke down component by component. First, couldn't adjust the gap (froze broken in place), then the hand grip handle broke, finally, the whole spreading mechanism broke and turning the handle did nothing, making it completely useless.

    Don't waste your money on this one.
  • Ok
    Works pretty good
  • Poor quality
    This works but I am not impressed with the quality. I want a spreader that spreads a great deal of salt but also is durable and long lasting. This after one use is showing break down. I would buy something else.
  • Spreads well
    Works great
  • as advertized
    just in time for multiple snow storms. best spreader I have ever used with hand crank.
  • Didn’t work for me
    I bought it to spread bug killer granules, which is the same size as fertilizer. It jams up and does not spin as it should. Would not buy again.
