Einhell GC-SR 12 Lawn and Garden Spreader -- 12L, 45cm Scatter Width, Impact-Resistant Plastic Housing, Adjustable Distribution Rate -- Lawn Spreader For Grass Seed, Feed and Fertiliser

Does what it is supposed to do. Solidly built and assembles well. We bought it to spread All in one lawn feed over the garden. We set the sprinkle rate lever to position 3 and walked briskly up and down the garden until we distributed about 8kg of lawn feed over 200 plus square metres of lawn. It did a grand job and we are pleased to say the entire lawn is now completely dead (mostly weeds and not a lot of grass me thinks). I am convinced it is not the fault of the sprinkler. It successfully distributed the 8kg evenly and efficiently. So I am blaming the lawn feed or the overwhelming number of weeds.Should you buy one. - A resounding YES. There is far too much grass about and this little fella should go a long way to correcting that.

Solid piece of equipment, easy to construct and break down for easier storage.You need to clean and dry these after use if you wish it to last.

So easy to put together and really good to use with the lever so easy to use highly recommend.

Not the best Einhell product that I have purchased. Distribution of lawn products are not consistent resulting in uneven application and damage to lawn. Maybe a faulty regulator but have resorted to application by hand

Excellent product, inexpensive, easy to construct, solid construction, easy to use. Fast, secure delivery. Highly recommended.

Great price

Cheap, but seems to work as well as some costing three times the price. Easy to assemble and use.

I bought this Lawn Spreader to use with Miracle Grow 4 in 1 lawn treatment, which stated that a maximum of 35 grams per 1 metre square should be applied. My lawn is 16 metres long and the spreader trough is 450 mm wide, therefore an overall area of 7.2 metres square metres and 252 grams per strip. I therefore weighed the spreader empty and then added a good amount of treatment to the trough and weighed the spreader again. On the side of caution I set the spreader to the lowest setting No 1. After a complete strip, I weighed the spreader again to find that only 15 grams had been used, I did the same on setting 2 and a further 60 grams had been used, I did the same on setting 3 and a further 115 grams had been used, totalling 190 grams, still well short of the 250 grams. Rather than taking any chances I decided to do a new strip on setting No 4 and to my horror 540 grams had been used, over double the recommended amount. I then did the 3rd strip on setting 3 and this time 160 grams was used albeit before o this setting 115 grams was used. As there was no consistency whatsoever, I treated rest of the lawn on setting 3. In my opinion there are 2 major design faults with this spreader 1) there is no way of controlling the treatment until you put the spreader at rest and turn the leaver on/off on the trough, so when you get to the end of each pass the treatment is still coming out. 2) there is also no mechanism within the trough that feeds the treatment through the holes, allowing clogging and inconsistent levels of treatment being applied. I have since looked at my friend's spreader which has both these features and was bought from a local garden centre for a few pounds more. 4 days after the application I now have a seriously burnt lawn. I unfortunately I disposed of the box on the day I used the spreader making it difficult to return and have therefore decided to dispose of the spreader, as in my opinion it is useless.
