The Earthway hand-operated bag spreader/seeder is ideal for broadcasting all types of grass seed; it works equally well with other types of seed, as well as for the application of fertilizer and other granular products. The spreader/seeder features convenient spring-action rate setting control and a high-rpm gearbox, which provides a smooth, feathered-edge broadcast. It comes with a zippered nylon bag and a wide, shoulder strap to make extended use more comfortable. The oscillating shut-off plate prevents clumping and aids in flow control.

Spreader works great. Seems to be of good construction and probably holds about 20-25 lbs of lime or fert. I would recommend-

The Earthway Hand Operated Bag Spreader/Seeder is an excellent product.
We use it to spread seed for our food plots and seed any bare spots on our farm. Highly recommend.

Works as described

I have used this to seed a garden cover-crop mix, a grass seed mix, and seed oats. It has worked pretty well for those things.
A little practice with the sequence of events will give smoother results: Start walking and cranking BEFORE you open the sliding trap door that lets the seed out of the bag. Then, release the catch on the trap door and let it snap closed before you stop walking and cranking.
This tool is for right-handed cranking only and cannot be reversed for left-handed operation. The bag on my unit is red nylon. I expect to get lots of years of service from it.
