N/A

I have a snow plowing and salt removal business. I purchased this spreader hoping it would alleviate my problem of buying a cheap spreader every year from my store. After 2 years of use, I now can't use it. The steel shafts running through the spreader have all set up! I am very particular about my equipment. It was stored inside, washed, dried and lubed very often. I have a $72.00 spreader that has been working for 5 years! VERY DISAPPOINTED.

I really like the sturdiness of the spreader especially the gear box with it's smooth operation. My feet never engage the spreader when I walk behind it. The large wheels make it almost effortless with a full load. I'm glad I choose to get the stainless steal version because my old spreader was really rusted. Buying this spreader was an investment that will definitely pay off.

Leonard 70 lb Black powder coated stainless steel spreader

Well made, strong yet light frame, excellent traction with the large tires. Gate mechanism engages smoothly nice long handle and smooth quiet operation. I couldn't justify the $70.00 price difference for ss when the black is powder coated over stainless steel!

Stainless steel salt spreader

I bought this spreader because my older cheap Meyer Hot Shot spreader had finally had enough. I wanted something similar style but better as a replacement. This spreader fits the bill. My primary use for it will be for spreading salt (lime and seed in the summer months). It has one large opening for allowing material to flow through unlike the fertilizer spreaders which is what I wanted for salt. A.M.LEO sent me the wrong spreader first but sent the stainless steel one to me 3 days later. During assembly a stainless steel pin was missing but I called an A.M.LEO rep and they had a pin sent out quickly. Other then that assembly was quick and easy. During my first use I had the grate in the spreader and ice melter and rock salt didn't not flow well at all. I took the grate out and it has worked flawlessly ever since. Price seems a little high for the spreader ($399) but I'm very glad I bought it!!

The spreader had the feel of a real piece of equipment. It has a sturdy frame and rolls easily in the yard. The handle is at the correct height to be comfortable when pushing it. I believe it will last for several years. I have two acre yard and use it to apply fertilizer. I have no dislikes of the product and would purchase it again.
