What can I spread with it?

Seed, granular fertilizer and ice melt. Keep to dry, free-flowing granular material; damp or clumpy product clogs the gate.

How large an area does one fill cover?

About 1,500 square feet at a typical setting. The 6 lb hopper means refilling several times on a full lawn.

Does it come assembled?

Yes, it ships pre-assembled. You only need to check the crank and flow settings before the first use.

How do I change the spread rate?

Use the crank and knobs to open or close the control gate. Start low and test on a small patch before covering the whole area.

Is it better than a push spreader?

For small yards, beds and spot work, yes: it is lighter and easier to store. For a whole lawn, a push spreader covers faster with fewer refills.

What warranty does it carry?

A three-year limited warranty from Agri-Fab.

Our take on the Agri-Fab Hand Held Seeder 1 gallon capacity

The Agri-Fab Hand Held Seeder is a 6 lb broadcast spreader for small lawns, garden beds and landscape features. It throws seed, fertilizer or ice melt up to 12 feet and covers roughly 1,500 square feet per fill. A control gate and adjustable flow knobs let you dial back output to avoid over-application, and it arrives pre-assembled. Compared with push spreaders it trades coverage width and capacity for low cost and easy storage; compared with cheap bag seeders it adds a real gate and rate adjustment. It suits small yards and spot work rather than whole-lawn jobs.
