Cheap junk! Rust bucket!

This thing wasn't cheap, but didn't last two years. The axle rusted inside the hub where you can't access it to clean or lubricate. No replacement parts available, ‘just throw it away'!

Junk didn't even last one year

Junk. If you could give zero stars I would. Edge guard broke in 6 months, never dropped correct amount. Less than 5000 sq feet. Babied this piece of scrap.Cleaned every use. Do not buy

Disappointed of the Scotts Pro Pro Edgeguard sprea

I bought this about 3 weeks ago and I found out that the plate was broken and I can't return it. Also, a few days ago I sent an email to you about this and got no reply. Thank you.

Edge guard cable broken

I purchased the pro model 3 years ago and was happy with the product. Edge guard was worth having and the pneumatic tires made this a premium product. However, the cable for the Edgeguard has broken. Disappointed that this only lasted a few seasons.

Made it 10 feet and wheels fell off. Such a poor design.

Poor design compared to older models. Nobody builds things like they used to. Made it 10 feet and wheels fell off. Took it back to the store for refund. They threw it in the trash. Such a poor design. Wish I hadn't given my son in law my speedy green 3000

Trash, just trash

I bought this spreader (stupid me let the store give me a replacement after the first one that I purchased gave out) and true to form it lasted 3 years after using it only 3 times a year. The wheels came off and the shuttle on the opening is forever getting stuck in the closed position. AVOID THIS PRODUCT!!!

Poor quality

I bought this a few months ago from a local home improvement store. The spreader didn't perform all that well when it did. Furthermore, the plastic shaft has failed like others have mentioned. This spreader was definitely not worth the money it cost and i am outside of the return window at the retailer.

Poorly built & Doesn't pread evenly

Pro: rubber tires, holds a lot of product, easy to push Con: cheaply made, the plastic switch for the edgeguard for off/on broke, doesn't spread evenly ( walking the spreader throws out the product more and further to the left and hardly anything to the right.

This spreader works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I borrowed my neighbor's Pro edge guard spreader since my son had my Scotts spreader. It was so easy to push with air filled tires. The edge guard also worked well. The thing I liked best was it kept my socks clean. In the past my socks caught fertilizer color and probably Bad stuff from Pesticides I use to kill grubs. I always showered right after using my Speedy green 3000 just in case. This Pro Edge Guard was a big leap forward.

Pro Edgeguard Speader

What a piece of junk. See these everywhere. Didn't see reviews first. Just bought, impeller doesn't turn, gear inside wheel slipping. They sell these using what USE TO BE a good brand. That's why companies go out of business. No more Scotts products for me. I can order spreaders and fertilizer form China w/o the middle man.
