1. Last Year I purchased this model. I've found that when I put perfectly granular name brand rock salt in the hopper it does not flow freely. The salt is stored inside a building, on a pallet to keep it dry. Because of the moisture in the spreader due to weather conditions, the salt needs agitating. After talking to the company who sold it they called the factory rep and he said the spreader would not accept an agitator because the motor is not heavy enough. The factory rep suggested an adapter to accept an agitator at the cost of $350! This salt spreader is causing frustration whenever it is used.
2. I used it for my driveway as I have a long 800 feet driveway that's pretty steep. Last year I had to use it about 2 or 3 times. It's definitely not commercial quality, but it worked OK last winter when I needed it. Had I not had problems, I would have given it 4 stars. This year though when I took it out of my barn to use it again, the motor no longer worked. To replace the motor is $120, so I have not decided yet if it is worth it. In hindsight, for the extra $120 I now have to shell out, I could have bought a higher quality model. I don't know if I just got a bad motor or if I'm going to have to replace the 1/4 horsepower electric motor every year.
