I read an earlier review where the person gave this a poor rating because they were spilling powder and wasting it. When i received the powder mill, put it together and saw a what looks like a gaping hole under the powder i bin, i wondered how on earth this thing could hold anything! Well now that i've used it twice to dust my house with diatomaceous earth (a very fine powder) i can say this thing works wonderfully. It makes a nice light cloud and really does spread powder evenly. I opened the holding bin after use and am amazed at how little i've used. I would definitely recommend this product.

I have this steel (non stainless steel) model which lasted only 3 years before rusting an leaking at the seam under pressure. The pressure was quite good. That was the bad news, the good news, company replaced the whole unit without charge after 3 years because the tank leaked. The pressure is quite good. I use it for small trees, bushes and it works great.
The proper way to bleed out the pressure is to turn the unit upside down and release the pressure throught the wane before refilling. There will be some Liq. in the wane, so be careful.

I'm here on Amazon looking for a different spreader after I bought this one from Home Depot yesterday. I used it today and it has to be the flimsiest piece of junk I've ever used. The main problem, other than how cheap it is, is that the fertilizer flow does not stop after you release the handle. This spreader replaced a Scott's Speedy Green that broke while I was using it. At least that lasted a few years but eventually a plastic piece that controls the discharge opening broke. I would say that if you do your own fertilizing a few times a year that you look for something better made. I thought Scott's used to stand for something.

It's very good looking but functuality is far from perfect, it leaks even while just walking with it. The spot thats designed to hold the wand is not great and falls while walking. I can expell 2 gallons in 3 minutes, maybe faster with all the leakage. Also,the pump doesnt add much air I have to keep pumping to get a decent amount in. Plastic tip will break if it hits floor hard. Spend the extra money and get a b&g.
