Chapin 84700A 25-Pound Professional Handheld Bag Seed spreader with Waterproof Bag, Enclosed Gears, Rear Baffle, Adjustable Shoulder Strap and Multiple Spread Options, Red, 1.0 Count

Works great, would never hold 25 pounds but who would want to haul around that much seed.

It was sooo easy to spread the grass seed this way. Thanks

Works well. Broadcasts nicely. No clogs. Easy to use. Baffle does little to stuff out of pockets, but better than nothing.

I was disappointed in every aspect of this product.First is loading. The bag is so flimsy that there is no way to fill it in a single motion. You need to fill a little then life the sides then fill and lift the sides multiple times. Then you zip it up and it tips over. Which would be fine because there is a zipper but the zipper just unzips and allows all the content to go onto the ground.Then there is actually putting this on. It does not balance well so you constantly need to be supporting it with your non turning hand. But you can only place your hand on the very end which is not much help. With the only real option being put your hand where the spinning wheel is and hope you don’t move in a way that gets it hit.Speeding I can break into two parts. To start spreading you must be already spinning and then release then blindly choose the amount to release. Or if you want you can lean and tilt the tool and look. But the position for you to see the amount makes it so your body blocks the spinning so then product is dropping on the ground. Then there is the spreading itself. It is quite hard to get a consistent spread when you have to basically reset the amount of product you are dispensing every time you need to turn.This tool is just too much of a hassle to make it worth it. All the issues I outlined other products have addressed and fixed.

Maybe I am using it wrong. But it is not super easy to use. I ended up tossing it with my hand. But it might have been me and my own impatience. Filling it up sucks. Try holding a 50 pound bag over a 8 pound flimsy bag to fill it. Just use a cup. Needs a hip thingy to hold in place on your body. BUt what can I expect for the price. You and I are looking at this for price. You get what you pay for. Bag is great construction. Rest is cheap and flimsy.

GREAT PRODUCT

I love this thing. Super easy to use

Like the title says, I like this thing better than my push spreaders. Easy to load, easy to open the gate to spread, faster than a push spreader
