Featuring exclusive EdgeGuard technology, it prevents product waste by blocking off-target spread, covering up to 5,000 sq. ft. Its smooth hopper and agitator system ensure even distribution, while the fold-down handle offers easy storage. Ideal for homeowners seeking efficient, mess-free lawn care year-round. ## Description Use the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader to apply lawn fertilizer, grass seed, granular weed control, salt, and ice melt. This reliable spreader option for lawns comes pre-calibrated and ready-to-use, and holds up to 5,000 sq. ft. of Scotts product. When the EdgeGuard is engaged, it will block off the right-side of the spreader pattern to prevent product from spreading onto non-lawn areas. Using the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader is simple. To begin, turn rate control dial to the correct setting listed on the back of each Scotts product, pour the product in the hopper, then start spreading. The seed spreaders for lawns feature design enhancements like a curved hopper and dual-bladed agitator for smooth product funneling and consistent coverage. Not to mention, it is compact and features a fold-down handle for easy storage. These fertilizer spreaders provide uniform coverage of granular products; without one, you may end up with uneven coverage of fertilizer or control products that can result in uneven feeding, weed, disease, or insect control. As a trusted Scotts spreader for lawns, DIY homeowners can also use it as an ice melt spreader to distribute salt on walkways and driveways. Review: It may be small but does the big jobs. - The best spreader for anyone with less than an acre of property. This spreader maybe small but it can throw product as far as the bigger units. The edge guard is a great feature as well. It’s very light but built very sturdy. Selection of the opening sizes accurate. Its contact size makes it easy to store. The handle does fold down so it’s very compact to store on a shelf or in a corner. It will never rust because it’s made from very thick plastic. You hose it off and it looks new. Great little broadcast spreader. Review: Excellent Spreader That Makes Lawn Care Easy and Efficient - I recently purchased the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader, and it has made a noticeable difference in how easy it is to apply lawn products. I've used it for fertilizer, weed control, and insect control applications, and it has performed consistently well every time. One of the features I appreciate most is the EdgeGuard technology, which helps keep product from spreading into unwanted areas such as driveways, sidewalks, flower beds, and landscaped sections of the yard. This gives me much better control and reduces waste, making the application process cleaner and more precise. The spreader arrived mostly assembled and was very easy to set up. The instructions were straightforward, and the spreader settings for Scotts products were simple to follow. The hopper holds a good amount of material, allowing me to cover a substantial portion of my lawn without constantly stopping to refill. I also found the spreader easy to maneuver. The wheels roll smoothly across the lawn, and the handle is comfortable to use, even during longer applications. Distribution has been even and consistent, helping me avoid the streaks and patchy results that can occur when products are applied unevenly. The build quality feels solid for a homeowner spreader, and it stores easily in my garage without taking up much space. For anyone looking for a reliable and user-friendly spreader for fertilizer, weed control, or insect control products, this is an excellent choice. Overall, the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader has helped make lawn maintenance faster, easier, and more effective. It's a great value for the price, and I would gladly recommend it to other homeowners who want professional-looking results with less effort. ## Features - NO ASSEMBLY REQUIRED: Scotts spreader comes pre-calibrated and ready-to-use with a fold-down handle for easy storage; use it year-round including as an ice melt spreader or salt spreader for snow - CAPACITY: Broadcast spreader holds up to 5,000 sq. ft. of Scotts lawn products, and can be used as a lawn food, salt, ice melt or grass seed spreader - ideal for treating smaller areas - OPERATION: These fertilizer spreaders for lawns feature a hopper and agitator designed for smooth product funneling and consistent coverage - SIDE SHIELD: Scotts exclusive EdgeGuard Technology on these broadcast spreaders for lawns keeps lawn product off landscaping, driveways, and sidewalks - BROADCAST SPREADER: Use the Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Lawn Spreader to apply Scotts lawn care products, like grass fertilizer for lawns ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,412 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #3 in Lawn & Garden Spreaders | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 23,343 Reviews | ## Images ![Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51nuGG4UMgL.jpg) ![Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-JpyNEr6L.jpg) ![Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81tADidiiYL.jpg) ![Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/818HhmoQPwL.jpg) ![Scotts Turf Builder EdgeGuard Mini Broadcast Spreader - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612V8m9qnvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How is the spread when used for salt in the winter? Does it have a good spread or does it just trickle to the floor with very little spread.** A: I bought this 5 years ago and only use for salt in the winter, the metal frame finally gave out in the beginning of the 6th winter. Spreads salt fine as long as the wheels turn. Not great for built up ice pack on driveway. Works great for normal use at home. **Q: Does it say where this spreader is made?** A: The spreader is made in California. **Q: would it work well for powdered lime?** A: I have been using the Scott's classic drop spreader for 6 years and it works great for powered lime on setting #14 **Q: Will this work for snow salt too?** A: It should but salt would probably have to be applied before it snows. It might be difficult to roll in more than a small covering of snow.
