Product Description:
EARTHWAY 2170T HD TOW BEHIND SPREADR

Amazon.com Review:
EarthWay's 100-pound Ev-N-Spread is a broadcast spreader built to last from top to bottom. The spreader has a stainless-steel axle with twin brushing-bearings and fully enclosed gears. The included hopper screen effectively breaks up clumps in fertilizers and seed, and the spreader has an easy-access calibrated flow control handle. Depending on product size and towing speed, the broadcast range is 5 to 12 feet. Ev-N-Spread also offers jumbo 13-by-5-inch treaded pneumatic tires for sturdy, easy gliding. Although this model is not as rich in features as Ev-N-Spread's C25S commercial broadcast spreader (for example, the C25S has a stronger gear case), the price makes it more accessible for those who want a high-quality spreader but don't need the extra features. Assembly required. 90-day warranty.

- Review of Earthway #2170T spreader
When searching the internet for a spreader you are quickly aware that the Earthway prices are very attractive. However, you will find that you earn a good discount when you ASSEMBLE IT YOURSELF.

There are MANY parts and they were all there in the right quantity. I suggest you lay out all the parts so you can easily see them.

The instructions for assembly on a scale of 1 to 10, are a 5. That's not good.

Go slow and if it doesn't look right, it's probably ... Read More

- Sturdy, well constructed unit
This is my third spreader in 18 years. It replaces a Scotts tow-behind and this one is far superior. The hopper is thick plastic (polypropylene?), including the screen (nice touch), and all bolts that attach to it are stainless steel. That is a good thing because on my Scotts, they rusted even though the unit was taken care of. It assembles well in about 30 minutes but be sure to read all the instructions. Since the bolts are very similar in size, measure them to ensure you use the right ones ... Read More

- Less Plastic, More Metal, Good Design
I tried an economy model Agrifab 85lb. tow-behind spreader for ONE DAY and the (all plastic parts) cable control mechanism functioned poorly and eventually broke. The Agrifab feed flow was inconsistent. I returned the Agrifab unit.

This Earthway (2170T) spreader is a huge improvement over the Agrifab in regard to design and material and well worth the extra cost.
The Earthway feed cable control device is all metal and can be adjusted to remain very precise and consistent.

- The good and not so good
The EarthWay 2170T is the same as their 2170 walk behind model. They have eliminated the handle bars and added a tow hitch. Assembling the unit was a bit tedious but directions were through and complete. They do need to be followed very carefully. The unit itself seems to be sturdy and I like the enclosed gear box and the flow control mechanism. I think the unit is somewhat top heavy when loaded with 100+ lb. of fertilizer. Mine tipped over twice when one of the wheels went in a rut. A wider wheel ... Read More
