Agri-Fab 45-0211 125-Pound Tow Broadcast Spreader Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Have used this spreader for 12 years to spread fertilizer, sand, & seed on 3 acre plot. Spreads very evenly, doesn't clog easily, is easy to clean (just hose off) and very corrosion resistant. Depending on the material, the broadcast spread is 8-12 ft. I spread around 350 pounds of organic fertilizer twice a year and this spreader makes that very easy.
Construction: All metal pieces that contact the fertilizer are stainless steel. Fasteners look like they are zinc plated. Uses standard pneumatic tires. Sturdy, durable non corroding plastic hopper. (no signs of UV cracking after all this time...)
Suggested product improvement would be to add zerk fittings on axle sleeves to make it easier to grease.
Only complaint is that the control settings don't correlate to any major fertilizer brands (Scotts, Earthway, etc.). As a result you need to set application rate by trial and error.

Agri-Fab 45-0315 85-Pound Tow Broadcast Spreader Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used this spreader to put rye grass seed on a couple of food plots, using a riding mower to pull it. It lasted all of 1 1/2 plots before the gears separated and the wheel stopped spinning. When I tried to see if there was something I could adjust I was amazed at just how flimsy the rotating components were and how loosly they all fit together. The hopper, wheels and tubing which hold it together are fine; but the rest is extremely undersized. I do not recommend this unit for any application. Two thumbs down.
