 Smoothly rolls over uneven ground July 13, 2010
Jason Small (Philadelphia, PA USA)
I've used this once since receiving it, on about an acre. My ground is bumpy and moderately sloped. I'm happy with the ease at which I was able to push the spreader, given the pneumatic tires. With the hopper full of fertilizer, I did not feel it was unstable even when walking side-hill (across the slope rather than up-and-down).
I'm 6'4", and was worried about the height of the push handle and it's relative comfort. While it could be higher, I found it to be adequate and did not have trouble. It may be more difficult if using to spread heavier material than fertilizer, but I'd probably just use smaller loads.
Pneumatic tires make all the difference! June 22, 2010
Brian NY
The pneumatic tires on this spreader make fertilizing my yard a breeze and the large hopper means I only have to fill it twice for an acre of property. It spreads very evenly and comes with a conversion chart to find the exact setting for any brand of fertilizer.
 The best spreader I have used. April 24, 2010
Alan (USA)
This spreader seems very durable and precise with the large rubber wheels over uneven terrain. It saves a lot of time with a wide distribution, however, I used a drop spreader around drives, walks and shrub borders for better control. I sealed a few holes and any openings in the tubular structure with silicone sealer to prevent entrance of any highly corrosive fertilizer and water.

Unit works very well. Need more setting information in addition to the pounds per square foot in the instructions. Large fertilizer manufacturers primarily give settings for Scott rotary spreaders, but very few for Earthway. Instructions on fertilizer bag are often different compared to the Earthway instructions.Granular size makes a difference in settings also. Confusing. Pushes well over rough ground, hills etc. Carries a good load.
Nice spreader April 14, 2010

Nice spreader, easy to use, ready to go out of the box. 2 suggestions for this spreader, #1, cut out and save the application chart off the box, and #2, get 2, 3/4" pvc schedule 40 couplings, cut a 1/4" slit lengthways in them, then snap onto the bottom frame where it rests on the ground to help protect the frame from scratches and rusting.
