SOLO 421-S 20lb Portable Spreader

Lo he usado para sembrar pasto forrajero, avena y triticale, incluso para esparcir fertilizante granulado. Yo he usado los que son de tela y he de decir que este es mejor producto por mucho, la forma de regular, que puedas direccionar hacia donde tira la semilla y la palanca, me parecen excelente, solo tiene un detalle, me gustaria que fuera más como una mochila, que agregaran unas cintas para que fuera más comodo llevarlo, porque si cansa bastante si lo cuelgas de un solo lado. Por todo lo demás no tengo queja.

Had many issues getting one shipped; told that it would arrive any day after several inquiries but several shipping days missed, eventually advised that it was never shipped to begin with. Dealt with the dealer a few times, eventually got one shipped directly but paid about $40 over the later posted price (about a month later). But the unit itself is not disappointing. Very smooth function, good sized hopper for a carry unit, well built. My last spreader, not this brand, lasted for six or more years, but the quality of this one will likely last many years, even decades of annual use. Pricey, but when buying good quality you only have to cry once.

I have used several different style and brand seeders over the past 25 years planting food plots for deer. This is by far the best seeder I’ve ever owned. So much more comfortable than any I’ve previously used. The clear lid allows you to look directly down to monitor how much seed is left. It has the ability to direct the aim of the seed as well. I was worried it might not work well with tiny clover seed but I just seeded 2 acres of white clover without a single problem. I also seeded 2 acres of soybeans with it and it worked equally as well. No issues with Egyptian wheat either. A very fair price for an outstanding seeder. From the smallest of seed to very large it did exactly what I needed it to.

Simple adjustments, does the job, easy to operate and really better than hand-spreading. Very good for small seeds (clover and mil).

I’ve had a perpetual problem with salt spreaders. They either plug up or jam up depending on the coarseness and consistency of the salt I use. That said, I used only calcium chloride “pellets” as the de-icing material. You can tell how well the salt will work by how it comes out of the bag. Lum.py and clumpy likely will not work well. My guess is that the pellet sizing was the key to my very successful use of this spreader. It worked flawlessly all .winter long. When it’s full of salt, the spreader is fairly heavy, and may pose a problem for some people. The harness itself is fairly easy to get into, and when it’s properly adjusted, it’s very comfortable to wear. When wearing the spreader properly, the salt reservoir of the pack is right in front of you to see how much salt you have left. The salt feed controller is adequate, but I usually leave it wide open. The length and width of the spread depends on how fast you want to crank. Overall, I’ve found this spreader much more sturdy and well built than any similar spreaders. I consider this product the best I’ve used, and I’ve used a considerable list of spreaders that weren’t worth buying. This one is a lasting value and well worth the price I paid…
