I love the EdgeGuard feature, which helps prevent product from spilling onto driveways, sidewalks, or flower beds.The design is compact and easy to maneuver, and assembly was straightforward. It spreads fertilizer and seeds evenly, ensuring my lawn gets the care it needs. The comfortable handle makes pushing it around simple, and cleanup is quick and easy.Highly recommend it for anyone who wants a hassle-free, efficient spreading experience!

Great product! It met expectations, and apart from that, it's superbly suitable for gardening and easy to use.

The Scotts Elite Spreader—-This is a great spreader! It easily handles a big load and is easy to push; easier to push than the mini version.I would have given this 5 stars but it was missing an essential part. The Elite has two gear box’s that attach to the axil. There is suppose to be some part like a pin clip that attaches the gear boxes to the axle so that the when the tires rotate, the axle rotates, which of course rotates the gears, which rotates the the spreader plates, shooting out the fertilizer. But the gear boxes were NOT attached with a lock pin or any kind of pin. When my spread arrived in the mail, I needed to use it immediately. It was easy to assemble the wheels to axel and supposedly was ready to spread. I put in fertilizer and began to push the spreader on my grass. But no fertilizer was spreading. I pushed the spreader on to the sidewalk to see what was the problem. I eventually noticed the gear boxes were not attached to axle. The instructions listing the parts only had hardware for attaching wheels to axle; no lock pins of any sort for gear boxes. So gear boxes should have come already attached. Fortunately I have collected years and years of screws, nuts, bolts, washers, and lock washers. I was able to find two skinny screws the fit the holes and nuts, washers and lock washers small to be able to attach the gear box’s. Not the perfect solution but one that worked. The picture attached to these comment shows you that screws were longer than needed but at least were skinny enough get through the holes. So it was an easy fix. However, the Scott’s product inspector should have caught this before it was shipped. That’s their job (assuming Scott has inspectors)! Obviously the product was not pushed to see if it actually worked! Or maybe the inspector was jamming to some tunes with their ear phones on and assumed the product worked fine because other inspected worked fine. There seems to be a lot of that kind of quality anymore. But once I fixed that, this elite spreader worked great. I’m very pleased with it and would recommend it to anyone. No doubt if purchased from a local store it would not have this problem, but probably would have would have cost more.

Perfect for spreading lime and reseeding. It’s not made for very tall people but it’s worth the money. Very well made.

I should have bought a small broadcast spreader decades ago. Using a drop spread is so much harder.Great price and works well for a 1/4 acre lot.If you have a bigger yard I would get the bigger size

I am very disappointed. The return window ran out after 90 days. I bought it early, at Scott's suggestion, so I would be all ready for spring. What's going on? I used it 3 times. The third time I used it this season, it stopped working (the rotters wouldn't turn at all) in the middle of trying to put down Scott's Max Green, now what???? For a hundred dollars, save your money, looks cool, but breaks after 2 and 1/2 uses. Seems kind of expensive per use, I'm not that rich. Normally I love Scott's, but this is a huge disappointment.Called Scott's Consumer Service line. Spoke to someone who didn't know what they were doing. After 32 Minutes, I decided Scott's wasted enough of my time. Said they would refund my money if I cut something off the spreader and send it to them. He/she? didn't know how my money was going to be refunded. They were very confused! What a disappointment! I have NEVER EVER had this type of service from Scott's, EVER.Got a reply back from Scott's to call the same number I originally called. Guess they didn't read my comments, just the rating I gave them. Continuing to disappoint me.Called back and ordered the kit to fix. I will let you know how it turns out. BTW the lot number is printed on the green upper guard on the left hand side facing the spreader. They are going to ask you for this number., It starts with a 17 or 18.Well here we go again I had to call customer service and ask for the repair kit it doesn’t appear the first order was ever made soHere we go again I’ll let you know how things turn out hopefully well I’m really excited about the spreader itself.Receive the kit it was very easy to install it took less time to install the kit then it would to cut off the cable and mail itI give Scott’s a lot of credit for Identifying a problem and actually fixing it free to the customer Scott’s hasn’t let me down !!

This is a great broadcaster. This a replacement for the one that was never returned. The handle is very comfortable, it easily holds a 40 lbs back of fertilizer or seed, very quiet & and there is nothing to rust. By folding the handle down, the size of the broadcaster is easy for storage.The adjustments for the amount of fertilizer is top notch and there boarder guard is great.

Useful.
