This is the best W & F on the market!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Disclaimer: I received a free sample to test for my unbiased opinion Though I have used Scotts W&F for several years this was the first time I had used the reformulated product. It has bigger granules and was much easier to spread on the yard. It covered exactly as the bag indicated (5000 sq ft). The results were almost immediate as the dollar weed that had recently sprouted (due to a lot of rain activity) started to wilt and die off. I give this product upgrade 4 stars!

Weeds are all dying out!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Down here in SC it had already begun to get warm a few weeks ago and and since I spotted some unwanted weeds in the lawn I applied the Bonus S weed & feed and within a week I would say I began to see a great difference. I highly recommend this product!

Not sure what you want here

I have used Scotts products since the 1960's when I moved to Ohio and then back to Texas. Started with Turf Builder and had outstanding success. Started using Bonus when it first came out and was very pleased with the results. Last year (2015) and this year Bonus S dis not work and the clover and dandelions grew faster than the grass. I will go back to your Turf-builder next year. Sam

Bonus S makes my lawn Green!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This year I replaced sod in some areas of my lawn. I put Bonus S down a week and half ago and the lawn is becoming a carpet of green! I even had someone stop and ask me what type of grass and what I did to make it green? I replied, it's Empire Zoysia and I used Bonus S!!!

Doesn't work as advertised.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product claimed to have better formula for killing dollarweed, but I had to use another product to get rid of it. Also had other weeds that weren't controlled as stated on the package. My son also had the same results.

Just As Promised!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a large yard and used the entire bag on one side of the property. I used a Scott's Turf Builder Pro EdgeGuard Deluxe Broadcast Spreader and spread the Bonus S. After about two weeks 99% of the weeds were dead and gone. However, the other side of the yard still had a large number of weeds still growing. I have purchased another bag to finish the yard now. The Scott's Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed & Feed works well for us.

Good Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product on and off for several years. Dollar weeds come back when I do not consistently use. There are cheaper products but I find this product works better. I recommend this product.

DO NOT USE ON BERMUDA GRASS

My wife bought this product for our lawn, and without looking closely at the fine print I covered our lawn with it. Unfortunately, instead of a lush green lawn, I have a huge spots of dead Bermuda grass. Uggg, if the product is that dangerous for the wrong type of grass, there should be a huge warning on the bag. It will take a long time and a lot of $$$ to recover.

Bad results , again

This is the second year I have used this with terrible results. It is doing nothing to the dollar weed !!!! Again. Used the correct setting (4.5 ) with my Scott’s spreader. Something has changed in your product and it is too expensive to continue the experiment. 6 large bags wasted !!!
