Summary: Well built tow behind spreader that works.
 
The Precision Products broadcast spreader seems well built and was designed as a tow behind unlike some less expensive spreaders that are just modified walk behinds. Besides handling a heavier load, the wider tire spacing of a true tow behind keeps it from tipping when going over bumps or when making sharp turns. A strong gearbox is very important for a tow behind and the all metal gears and enclosure should give many years of service. The tires are pneumatic and big enough to carry the full load.

Assembly seemed simple, but when I tested the feeder rate button I couldn't get it unlock and move easily. It looked like I needed to squeeze the button to unlock it and after trying to do so with pliers I discovered inadvertently that I just needed to push the button in. Embarrassing, but in the process I discovered that, while the feeder controls look like they are made out of cheap plastic, it's some really tough stuff that I expect will last the lifetime of the equipment.

I have only used the spreader once and with only about a 30 lb load, but the feeding rate control and the spreader mechanism all worked well. The feeding control was easy to reach from my lawn tractor's seat so that I could shut off or turn on the spreader as needed. There was never a time I felt like the spreader was going to tip over on my relatively flat, but bumpy lawn. The spreader did the job well and seems like it should last for many years of use.Precision Products TBS6000RDOS 6 Series 130 lb Tow Behind Broadcast Spreader with Rain Cover

Summary: Perfect but for a flaw!
 
The spreader was easy to assemble. It works great! The volume adjustment is easy to reach from the tractor seat, and can be adjusted quite easily, even without looking. I found the coverage on the lawn to be uniform, (something I had never quite been able to achieve with other spreaders). I have a hilly lawn, so the wide stance and big tires made a full load of fertilizer easy to handle with no danger of tipping! I issue only one negative and caution with a question. Why do manufacturers build an implement designed to hold corrosive materials and fail to use stainless steel in essential parts? I, for one, will happily pay more for this feature. I would suggest to any prospective buyers to spray the rotor shaft and areas exposed to fertilizer or other corrosive material with WD-40 or similar product before using, and spray after cleaning after each use. Even though I washed out the spreader as instructed after use, corrosion had already begun its nasty work on the shaft and some adjacent parts. The spreader is a good one, but it could be great!!

Summary: Serves it's purpose quite well!
 
After searching high and low for a decent broadcast spreader (it seems this is a seasonal item sold during the summer and fall), I finally found this one. Although we don't use it for fertilizer (we use it primarily for spreading salt during the snowy months on our extremly long driveway), it seems to serve it's purpose quite well! I would recommend this item to anyone who needs a good sturdy broadcast spreader to attach to their garden tractor.
