I bought this product to spread compost evenly over my lawn. Our lawn isn’t great and a landscaper suggested we enrich the soil for better grass growth. This spreader is reasonably priced and works great, making the task quick and easy. The spreader is very well made and sturdy and was delivered the day after I ordered it. We put down 10 forty pound bags of compost in 20 minutes. This spreader was a huge time and labor saver, I highly recommend it.
