Why not just borrow one from the place you buy the stuf you are going to
spread. That's what I have always done.

But then you'd have to take it back within a few days and you might not
get round to actually doing the spreading for a week or so!
I'd be interested in any recommendations as well if anyone's got them for
spreaders.

The borrowing idea is okay if you live next door to a garden centre but it's
not for me.

After a little research I bought a:
Scotts EvenGreen Drop Spreader. I got it from Amazon as that was cheaper
than the competition and had free delivery.

Basis for buying was merely that it looked the part. It has large wheels,
an ample container and an adjustable drop rate. A little self-assembly
required, the wheels are held on by a split pin, hub caps click into place
and the handle fixed on. No tools required.

Haven't used it in combat yet as it is drizzling.
