 The Best Sander Ice Melt Spreader from MowtownUSA January 5, 2006

The Earthway Broadcast Spreader #2170 was ordered on Amazon late Sunday night, and was at our door on Thursday before Christmas. This product has clear and concise assembly instructions. The materials are sturdy, top quality and I'm sure will last for many years. Living in New England are weather changes from snow to freezing rain quickly, using this spreader has saved us so much time and money. I would highly recommend this company and this product.

Finally a spreader that actually works. I've owned three of the more commonly available spreaders from Home Depot / Lowes. I first bought the cheapest one at about $40 - junk. Upgraded to a $60 tow model - junk that repeatedly flipped over. Upgraded again to a $70 push type - still junk. The cheap ones are very hard to push, and frequently leaked. Finally stepped up and bought one of these Earthway 2170's. What a great product. In a whole different league than the typical HD/Lowes stuff. Of course it's also triple the price - but worth it if you have a good sized yard. Spread patter was terrific, open/close lever works flawlessly, huge tires make pushing a full spreader around relatively easy. Much easier to push this one around with a full 80 lbs than it was to push the cheap ones around with 40lbs. This thing just plain works and finally makes fertilizing a vaguely fun chore. Of course it kills me that I paid $190 last week for this thing and it's listed as $163 today - arrgghhh. As far as assembly, I just don't see what was so tough about assembling it. If you can't tell a 1 3/4 inch bolt from a 2 1/4 inch bolt - just simply measure it. It is easy to mix them up. It's simply not that hard to put together. Took me a leisurely 30-40 minutes while watching TV one evening to unbox and assemble (could have done it in 15 minutes if I focused/tried). Only needed a Phillip's head screw driver and two small wrenches. A ratchet wrench of some sort would make the process a little faster, but not required.
Great Buy May 30, 2008

I use to use push stile spreaders and have researching pull stile ones for a while. I found this one to be a excellant value.
It comes with very good instructions and went together easily.
It works great I tow it behind a John Deere garden tractor and I used the
hitch extender that comes with it and it is the perfect length to reach the controls with ease.

I have 2 of these and they are the best spreaders I've ever owned. We use them for spreading de-icers in the winter and they hold up much better to the salt and corrosion than any other units we own. I'm thinking of purchasing a couple 2050's this year, so there's a little less weight to push on smaller areas. I'm sure they'll perform great too!
Excellent product for salt. I'm not sure how much better spreader could be for commercial use too. I don't see a need to purchase any more expensive units from other manufacturers.
Excellen quality January 13, 2010

My Earthway 2170 arrived today. It took appoximately 45 minutes to put together. I did not find the instructions difficult. I can tell the quality is first rate and the whole spreader looks very solid. Handles have pads on them - very nice. I was thrilled to get this today - my wife couldn't wait to tell me to put it in the garage! I'm looking forward to the next ice and snow storm so I can use it to spread salt. All in all it was better than my expectations.
