Built on the cheap for sure. The spinning thrower is an inch to low and the material you spread will fill the wheel wells and dump out in piles onto your lawn. The spreader has an edge guard - great- but you could also say that the wheels work as edge guards too. Don't bother buying this - you'll be disappointed. Unfortunately Scotts seems to have a monopoly in broadcast spreaders. Maybe thats why they didn't catch this obvious flaw in design or maybe they just don't care.

I would have to agree with lawnmeister, mine did the same thing. It is built for the little home owner that has the perfect LITTLE lawn in the city and ONLY needs to use it for small light weight SCOTTS products ONLY. I am buying a more heavy duty one.

I bought this spreader last year when my 20+ year old Scotts broadcast spreader bit the dust. It appeared to be substandard when I bought it but I decided to give it a try in that easy buying options locally are few and far between. Big mistake! Today I gave it it's first real test, using it on my approximately 3/4 acres of property. The drive wheel consistently stuck and refused to turn at pace, the control for fertilizer release sometimes shut off when the lever was released and sometimes it didn't. Towards the end of my efforts, the wheels jammed and a plastic-on-plastic clicking serenade accompanied my efforts to finish the job. Alas, I had to abandon my efforts because I just couldn't get the spreader to work. If this is the best Scotts can do, perhaps it's time for them to stop marketing lawn spreaders. Quality seems, sadly, to be a thing of the past when it comes to Scotts lawn tools. Another grating issue is that on many Scott's lawn products, such as the Grub-X I bought today, they only list Scotts spreader settings regarding the product application. If Scotts made a decent spreader, I would buy it but in the interim, they should list the spreader setting for other brands of spreaders. I have 3 college degrees and a rather expansive vocabulary but the most accurate way that I can describe this product is as follows: Don't buy it because it is truly a piece of crap!
By the way, a thankful nod goes to Home Depot, who took the spreader back and issued me a store credit today despite the fact that I bought the spreader there last year. They are truly a class act and I thoroughly appreciate their efforts on my behalf. Now the burning question is, who makes a decent spreader that actually has their spreader settings listed on lawn care products?

Much improved design already available from Scotts
I already own one of those pneumatic wheel spreaders with a square hopper. It works great to spread lime and grass seed but I found it somewhat unprecise for fertilizer. Read more

Don't buy this
OK, I didn't use it for ice removal or hauling bricks or anything it wasn't designed to be used for. Right off the bat I found that it is very cheaply made. Read more

You get what you pay for
These little spreaders are cheaply made and not dependable. Those who claim to use this particular spreader successfully on an acre or so of lawn must have dreamed it up. Read more
