Ease to assemble. Spreads evenly. Good buy. Some of the hardware could be improved. Had to address some issues with the closing latches. Below grade for what the roller does.

Seitdem wir ihn im Einsatz haben, erzielen wir mit der Nachsaat sehr gute Ergbnisse. Zuvor mussten wir immer wieder einige Stellen nachbehandeln, sodass sich der Invest gelohnt hat. Man spart Zeit und Geld.

Questo attrezzo ti semplifica la vita, nella semina del prato in autunno e primavera.

It's a bit heavy but does it's job well

Really bad quality.All bolts rotten and safety pins missing on arrival.

I made the lawn seeding process much more difficult than it was before getting this. I love this 24 inch roller. I did not know this tool existed until I saw a friend use it. Since I had just purchased lawn seed snd starter fertilizer, it was perfect timing to try something new. Game changer. I used this to spread peat moss over the seed. Easy to fill… messy but easy. Messy because the peat moss “brick” is so large & heavy. I love the solid hooks on the side of the roller. Common sense for placement. It has a large hinged door that flips back allowing large access for the compost, peat moss, whatever. Closes easily and you start rolling. No muscle strength needed. It rolls easily with normal walk. I experimented & walked ahead pulling behind, and behind pushing it forward. I prefer the walking behind, but both easy. It leaves a thin, even covering on the ground. I ended up having to purchase more peat moss as this spreads it quickly. A separate trip to the store could be avoided by measuring the area and purchasing what you need, with an extra bag or two. I am extremely happy with this purchase. Have already shared with family & a neighbor has inquired. The price was reasonable for something that should last for years. Durable, easy to assemble, prompt delivery. If you like a nice lawn, get one of these now. Larger sizes available, but think this 24 inch should be good for small to medium sized lawns. A larger one can be pulled behind a riding mower.

I've ordered things off amazon for over a decade and I don't think I've ever reviewed a single product until now. I ordered a Landzie spreader back in August in preparation for a lawn renovation project where I wanted something to top dress my new grass seed with peat moss. I ordered one which was towable because I have a zero turn mower and wanted to make lighter work of it.Well, my mower hitch is an oddly wide shape and unbeknownst to me while I was making my initial passes, my turns were causing the hitch to bend the hand grips on the handle downward. This bending deformed the fork for the hitch and made it so I could no longer reattach it to tow. I was dismayed, I wasn't sure if I'd done something wrong and I'd just broken my new spreader. I spread the rest of the peat moss on foot, which was harder to do pushing it around the lawn since the handles were now bent at an awkward angle. It spread extremely well, can't praise enough how well this laid out a uniform coating for my grass seed. On the one hand I was extremely happy with how it performed, but on the other I was troubled by the fact that I'd broken it while towing.I reached out to Landzie via their website and brought up the issues I'd experienced. I very quickly got a reply to my message asking if I could provide some images and go into detail, which I did. I was informed that a new handle would be shipped out to me free of charge and I received a phone call from the owner of the company to chat about the issue I'd experienced. He assured me that it wasn't my fault (I'd be perfectly willing to assume some responsibility as a newbie with this spreader) - the hand grips on the handle can detach (which I'll be doing in the future when towing) but most depictions on the Landzie site or in videos show it being towed with the hand grips still on. Andrew (the owner) admittedly had never had a need himself to detach them while towing because his hitch is a narrower shape that precludes the possibility of bending something that it's pulling. I'm not sure what Landzie's plans might be to prevent this in the future - it would probably suffice to have specific instructions noting that with oddly shaped hitches you should consider removing the hand grips so you don't damage them while turning...assuming we all read instructions thoroughly before using something, right? The solution to my problem is built in, I just didn't realize it would be a problem until after it was too late.We live in an era where it's very easy for companies to brush off things like customer service, and hide behind the mechanisms of the internet and other impersonal thing. Heck, half the time you order something online you're dealing with a monolithic organization, and any "support" you receive is buried underneath layers of chat bots or automated call center menus which lead to 45 minutes of elevator music and [ALL REPRESENTATIVES ARE CURRENTLY BUSY...] messages. I was impressed with a company of actual humans who responded promptly to my concerns and cared enough to give me a call and have a conversation about it. As I mentioned initially, the quality of this particular product is not in doubt. It did its job beautifully and my lawn renovation has been a success. When I was a kid I worked as a landscaper in the summers and fall for 7 seasons (9th grade through college), and I've top dressed my share of lawns with shovels and rakes. I would have killed to have something like this back then to turn hours of back breaking work on an acre lot into about 45 minutes breezing around the yard. It's an added bonus that not only are you getting a good product, but you're getting one that a small business is firmly standing behind and supporting. I know that sounds like a complete cliche that would usually make me groan and roll my eyes, but it's true and I would recommend this spreader and Landzie as a business any day of the week.

Awesome, works like a charm. Had grass sprouted and growing in 5 days!!! We graded area, put layer of compost down with the spreader, use the Wiz grass seeder to spread grass seed and then put another two layers of compost on top with the spreader. We only watered area in the morning (which I was worried about - was it enough??) Now it's 2 weeks later and looks like a golf green!! This spreader is amazing, puts a nice even layer of compost down, we love it!!!! Well built and one of the best items we've bought in a longggg time!!

Short Story First: Bought it; tested it once; it works great; it's a good solution. I look forward to using it this fall on 4,000 square feet of overseeding.I took away one star since the two-clasp closure mechanism is too small for regular users and unlikely to survive regular service.Back Story: Bought one of these Landzie "Peat and Compost Spreaders" after being frustrated by determining how best to overseed my 30-year old New England lawn."Overseeding" is reseeding while leaving living grass in place. New England lawns are challenged because the region has no real dirt, in the Midwest-Great Plains-West Coast sense. We have sand and rock, with some leaf humous sprinkled on for softer sleeping.The mechanical problem with overseeding is how to distribute a thin layer of something the grass will grow in, then seed the space, then top dress the area with a thin coat of peat moss to hide, protect and moisten the seeds, during germination and early re-growth.This is the first tool I've seen that sifts and distributes top dressings like soil, clumps of expired turf, and peat. It earns a big five stars from me for its design. This is a small-scale trommel screen, which gravel pit operators use to sift materials by passing them through a rotating screen.This model is small enough to use at home, big enough to hold a dozen shovel loads or two, powder coated to keep it from rusting instantly, and mechanically simple.I bought it after reading all the reviews, watching the product's sharp price fluctuations, and thinking about my hard-earned cash. I've had one opportunity to pre-test it. I liked what it did very much.My Test. Since reviewers generally like how the Landzie screener handles peat moss, I wanted to judge what it did with my lot's version of compost. I dug some non-crucial scraggly turf out of some edges of the lawn and just dropped it in the Lanzie, grass, small rocks, dried leaves, surprised worms and all. I filled it less than half full. Please see the first picture.That load and the spreader were no burden to push at all. The Lanzie sieves and spreads its contents very nicely, two feet wide. I estimate a nearly full load would cover about 30-40 linear feet, two feet wide, and about 3/16ths deep. Your results will vary of course. But this device solves my two problems with spreading mixed materials.What was left inside was just the vegetation, roots and leaves, a one-grain layer of sand on the moist roots, and some dizzy but wriggly and unharmed worms. I extracted my no-footed friends and dumped the trash in the compost pile. Please see picture two for the leftovers.The Lost Star. The clasps are more like oversized jewelry clasps than lawn-equipment connectors.The manufacturer, wherever it is (couldn't find the country of manufacture anywhere) needs to get serious about the two closure clasps. People with lawns big enough to need this device, or their service providers, work outside, have well-built hands, and they often wear gloves. And they expect their tools to be fully prepared to work hard, too. Someone in charge needs to go to some tailgating events and look at men's and women's hands there, for a quick market research solution.The builder has improved the welding and positioning of the clasps, which earned this a 1.1 release rating. But the tiny lifting latch, the little spring, the remaining protrusion height above the rotating circumference all demand one more manufacturing operation, a "dink."The Solution for Release 2.0. Adding a dink means using a stamping press to depress both sides of the area below the clasps, deep enough to provide for a more muscular clasp and retainer element. Both the wire mesh and the metal frame need to be depressed at the same time, and the halves still need to mate. The the radii of the surface curves need to be more than an inch. The test models should be tested by full-size male and female outdoors enthusiasts, some wearing gloves.I like this tool, am happy I bought this prototype, and plan to enjoy it. Let's hope I can baby it enough to keep the clasps operating all fall.
