5.0 out of 5 stars Huge improvement over Scotts spreaders, November 15, 2007

For some time I have been looking to upgrade from my Scotts broadcast spreaders (2), because they are difficult to push evenly on my large, sloping lawn and do not spread evenly. The Earthway 2150 while costing much more is well worth it. I can quickly and evenly cover my lawn now. Its large balloon tires are great. The 2150 is very ruggedly built and may outlast me - I need to include it in my will! One does need to calibrate the settings for the specific material being applied as Earthway discusses.

I've examined the packaging, the printed materials that came with it and the spreader itself and nowhere did I find it mentioned that this was made in this country. Thanks to woeful, printed-instructions, a call to EarthWay not only got me back on track but also confirmed that the spreader was built entirely in Indiana. Plan on two-hours for assembly and follow these missing instructions: 1) Don't fully tighten any bolt until the assembly is otherwise done; 2) The absolute last thing that you do is spread the cotter pins; 3) Put the 1-1/2" and the 1-3/4" bolts in separate, well-marked salad bowls; 4) The handle shaft's longer, indented-end faces the spreader hopper (not the handle); and, 6) Grab the band-aids and a beer. My instructions will allow you to finish the assembly a half hour sooner than it would have otherwise. The spreader works fine and Amazon's free-shipping price is a best buy.

After using my new Scott's Deluxe Edgeguard spreader once, I returned it for a refund and ordered this spreader. What a huge difference! I'm very happy with this Earthway 2150 spreader and it makes fertilizing the lawn easy and fun. The unit rolls very well, and with it's big pneumatic tires, it easily rolls over my uneven turf. The spreader is built well and I imagine it will last for many years. Assemby was straight forward and went together easily. The spreader comes with a chart for setting the spreader based on the number of pounds to spread per 1000 sq. ft. It does not come with settings for specific brands of fertilizer. The setting control is well calibrated and is easy to adjust. Lastly, the handle can be assembled at different lengths to accomodate different operator heights. This worked great for me, as I am tall and needed the extra handle length to avoid bending forward and causing back pain.
