Reviews of the Scotts Handgreen II Hand Held Broacast Spreader #71133 by Customers
Customer Rating: Summary: Not bad for small lawns, but not perfect Comment: The ergonomic design is wonderful, as the previous reviewer said. The problems I have had with it are:
1. No bagged fertilizer seems to give the "dial setting" for this model. I guess it is not popular enough. It has settings 1-5, and most other spreaders have at least 7 or 10. I usually just leave it on 5, but I honestly have no idea what spreading rate this allows.
2. It gets clogged easily. I wear gloves, so I just reach a hand in and break up the fertilizer clump that has blocked the opening, and then keep going. This depends on how clumpy your fertilizer is, some kinds are worse than others, especially if you are using from a bag that was opened last season. Not a huge deal for smaller lawn (mine is only 7000 sq. ft.) but it would really get to be a waste of time if the lawn was larger.
All-in-all, its decent for those with smaller lawns. Not great, but decent. I like the fact that it is small and doesn't take up lots of storage room like a push-spreader, so I am willing to compromise on some things. Customer Rating: Summary: The Best Hand-Held Spreader on the Market Comment: The MOST important and distinguishing feature of Scotts Hand-Held Spreader is its ergonomic design, which unfortunately cannot be clearly seen in the poor picture provided. The spreader has a "sleeve" which rests against the bottom of your forearm. If you think that this is not an important feature, you are simply mistaken. Once you have loaded the spreader with fertilizer, you may easily hold and try to balance 8 to 10 lbs. with one hand/arm. (Sounds like a little, but it actually is a lot.) This spreader spreads its weight across your forearm away from just the hand, thus allowing you to apply the fertilizer more evenly and comfortably. With its ergonomic design and, thus, the nullification of the weakness of the wrist, this spreader is in essence an ARM-HELD spreader, not a hand-held spreader, making it the best spreader of its kind on the market -- period.
