GREAT SPREADER FOR MORE THAN SALT!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This spreader works great for salt in freezing cold Colorado! Before I had this, I went around shaking the salt out unevenly from a pitcher. This makes it so much easier to salt my driveway and walkways. Now I have discovered it also works great for spreading grass seed and fertilizer in the Spring as well. It does come unassembled, but just follow the directions and it is easily put together.

Smooth and effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This salt spreader is a real nice product. The directions were a little confusing but I was able to get it put together with out and ran problems. The wheels are real nice and not that cheap plastic. The salt is pushed in a larger radius than I anticipated. Very pleased with this spreader.

Multi-purpose!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been anxiously waiting for first snow/ice on the ground so I could leave an honest review of the product. Assembly was uneventful. The instructions were a bit confusing but I was able to reference the pictures which were helpful. Using the spreader to apply the ice melt was easy. Had to be mindful to go forward not backwards. Liked that I could adjust the distance of the chemical and stop the chemical from outputting when needed. The Cover is a nice to have. Cons: the engage bar seems loose and a bit wobbly. Also, the spreader is not recommended for rock salt which is my go to. This was a show stopper because I was gearing up to go outside and use my already purchased rock salt with the spreader. Instead, I had to pause and go to the store to get a different product to use with the spreader which was more expensive. :/ Glad the spreader is multi-purpose and I can use it to spread fertilizer which is a saving grace.

Versatility
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this salt spreader. It is easy to put together in 10 minutes. Comes with a see through cover to keep the salt from getting wet and allows you to see how much salt is in the hopper. Easy to walk behind and use. What I especially like is that it comes with an auger for salt and a spreader for grass seed and a grate that sets a little higher than the auger or spreader so it doesn't jam. So rather than letting this unit sit in the shed during the summer, it can be used all year long. That's excellent.

Does a nice job!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a very long driveway which I never salted until now. This ice melt spreader is the way to go. My son had no problem putting it together. Very sturdy. The tires had good traction. Filled it up with ice melt and away I went. Awesome product.

Once assembled this is a great residential device!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Once assembled this salt spreader is a solid residential device! It has nice thick tires and a comfortable height handle. I was surprised to see how large it is and the capacity of salt it can hold. I have a 109 foot long drive way and can easily cover the entire surface with just one load into the spreader. I really like that you can adjust the amount being cast via the bottom dial and the amount of torque placed on the pull handle. I am looking forward to using it with fertilizer in the spring, it will be MUCH easier than using the tiny handheld unit I currently have.
The assembly was not very clear based on the shoddy instruction manual, but I was able to figure it out within 20 minutes as it is a simple mechanical design. I like that you can choose what wingnuts are used on the handle, so if you plan to fold the handle down for storage you can use the hand tightening nuts.
It comes with two different augers that are designed to cast different size materials, with specifications listed in in the manual. Also included is an cover to keep rain/snow out and an optional grate to help disperse clump prone materials.

Salty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live on the snow belt in Mid-Michigan and any winter day it is either freezing rain, snow or some other form of iciness. I am always fighting a battle to keep my sidewalk and driveway clear. So far I went through two of my grass seed spreaders using them to put down salt, not made for this task apparently. Then one day I discovered the Chapin 81008A Salt and Ice Spreader. Problem solved with ease. Thanks Chapin!
