Agri-Fab Broadcast Spreader 45-0576, 110 lb Capacity, Orange/Black

The Agri-Fab Broadcast Spreader 45-0576, 110 lb Capacity, Orange/Black has received mixed reviews from customers. While some have had positive experiences with the product, others have encountered various issues with its reliability and quality. One common problem mentioned by customers is the control handle for adjusting the amount of material to be spread. Many users reported that this part broke during the first use, rendering the spreader unreliable. Some even described the control handle as "cheap" and unable to adjust properly, leading to the product dumping material on the ground before they could shut it off. These issues were disappointing to customers Considering the price they paid for the American-made product. Another issue encountered by some customers was the assembly process. Some reported that holes were missing where the main container attaches to the frame, requiring them to drill these holes themselves. Additionally, a few customers mentioned that the plastic adjustable door tracks were damaged upon delivery. Despite these problems, some customers found the spreader to be well-built and capable of providing a long service life once the initial issues were resolved. It was noted that the spreader could hold 110 lbs. of fertilizer, but it was recommended to stick to around 50 lbs. to make pushing the spreader easier, especially on uneven terrain. Adjusting the lever to get the proper amount of fertilizer to come out was also mentioned as a bit challenging at first. In contrast to the negative feedback, one customer expressed that their husband found the spreader to be perfect, suggesting that some users may have a positive experience with the product. Overall, the Agri-Fab Broadcast Spreader 45-0576, 110 lb Capacity, Orange/Black has encountered reliability issues, particularly with the control handle and assembly process. While it has the potential to be a durable spreader, the provided plastic parts and packaging have been criticized by customers.
