This has been replaced by the improved green spreader. The principals of operation are the same and they do the same job but this latest model has an improved warranty to 3 years and sturdier construction.MaintenanceFertiliser, being a salt, is highly corrosive so all spreaders should be thoroughly hosed out after use, air dried completely and all exposedmeal parts sprayed and/or wiped with a light oil such as WD40 or a  silicone spray. Corrosion is not covered by the warranty. Cleaning and maintenance videos here.Buying Guides

Seems like a good product after one use. My garden is only about 35sqm and grass is odd-shaped so I found it a little more difficult to use because of the smaller size. But got the hang of it after a fertiliser and over seeding application

Tremendously easy to use. So glad I got this and not the one you push.

Bit of a knack to get satisfactory distribution but once achieved no problems

Good product. Poor instructions. Does not say how to set the release bar for correct spread of feed. So I had an uneven spread of fertiliser on the lawn. I found the lawn fertiliser spraying all over myself and in my face. Need to wear goggles. I watch the instruction video before use.

I love this - so easy to use especially grass seed which is difficult to spread with a drop spreader this really made light work of spreading grass and granular fertiliser
