 The Agri-Fab 45-0462 has many great features to be considered the “Good” in our line-up. It boasts a big hopper which can hold up to 130lbs. of material and can cover up to 25,000 sq ft. This makes it great for large areas, it also provides a 10’ spread pattern for a reliable coverage.

The commercial enclosed gear case will give you years of reliable use and be able to keep up with the abuse and wear spreaders will get. It will also provide smoother rolling and easy maintenance over the years. The controls are a plus as they are designed for easy use and settings can be controlled right from the handles.
The Argi-Fab 45-0462 makes our recommended list for easy use, heavy duty gear case and an ability to cover a large area with a heavy duty hopper.

 From The ManufacturerAgri-fab Smartspreader 130 Lb Push Broadcast Spreader
This 130 lbs capacity push spreader is capable of handling fertilizer, grass seed, and even salt. Once the hopper is full you can cover approximately 25,000 sq ft (roughly ½ acre) before needing to refill again. The large pneumatic tires allow you to roll over rough terrain while covering a 10’ width per pass. The spreader has an enclosed gear box to keep debris away from an aluminum beveled gear for low maintenance and superior performance.

Awesome Equipment
This is the second time I have purchased this item in the last 6 years. It does a great job! I have a 26 acre shopping center to maintain. this piece of equipment is used in summer and winter.
On my last purchase, one of the pieces was missing. It was easy to call the company and a piece was immediately shipped!!! Thank you very much. I am an extremely happy customer!

Upgrade Needed
After seeing earlier reviews I pre-drilled axle and installed cotter pin to prevent axle cap from coming off.
Good product.
Pros: Durable, Easy To Use, Quiet, Fast Cons: Axle caps do not hold wheel on axle. Alan Recommends This Agri-Fab Product Was this review helpful? 00 |

Decent Overall, Tires Are Junk....
Fertilizing Christmas trees, first few thorns busted the tires. Thin rubber. Ended up putting 75$ into no flat tires.

Good Deal
This spreader works very well. Works well on large areas and side walks. Very sturdy. Great for the money.
Only drawbacks are that the spreader control rod is a little flimsy and can make it hard to change spread amount with a big load on it, and the instructions are not great.

Spreader
Holds a lot of salt, but lever to let material out buckles. So you have to manually pull the shaft to fully open.
Pros: Durable, Easy To Use, Light Weight Cons: You Have To Pull On Rod To Open Window To Let Material Out Fully Was this review helpful? 77 |

Assembly Instructions Need Improvement
I am very satisfied with the product and blown away by the NEXT DAY DELIVERY! The assembly directions were hard to follow, as they had diagrams only and no worded guidance. A below average mechanic would never get this unit assembled.

Agri-fab Has Worked Out Fabulously For Us
This is a great spreader. My crew love it, we've used it for fertilizing lawns, spreading seeds for a re-vegetation and spreading sand on pavement for ice.
It's easy to handle, can carry the weight and can be adjusted to whatever product we use.

 Dont Buy It
The spreader will not throw fertilizer more than the width of the spreader, my lawn looks like a green zebra. I hate the damn thing. Wasted my hard earned money.
Product Expert Robert, I am sorry to hear that you were not happy with your experience using the broadcast spreader. With many of these spreaders, it is recommended that in order to insure a uniform coverage, each pass should slightly overlap the pattern from the previous pass. This being said, this spreader has a 10 foot spread width, which would far exceed what you are stating. Response from this spreader is almost always if not always positive so I am wondering if there is something wrong with the spreader or an adjustment which needs to be made as this would not be typical if you are using a standard media listed in the manual of the spreader. We will be contacting you shortly to discuss this further.
You can also give Agri-Fab a call as well if you would like as they should be able to help with this situation also, but expect to hear from us first.
Agri-Fab-(800) 448-9282 more Brand Rep Robert, Please call Agri-Fab customer care. This sounds like an assembly error. 800-448-9282. If assembled properly it will spread 10 to 12 feet. moreWas this review helpful? 23 |
