I had hopes that this seeder would make planting my large garden simple and easy, boy was I wrong. The assembly and instructions were simple enough. The construction materials seem adequate for the task. I planted a few different seed types. First off was sweet corn. I installed the plate as instructed and did not overfill the hopper. Seed seems to easily wedge between the seed plate and the hopper wall. If too many seeds jam behind the plate, it causes the front wheel to lock up. Some of the remaining seed pops out from behind the plate and launch out of the open top of the hopper. When seed does make it through the plate and down to the soil it rarely is one or two. Most of the time 3 to 4 seed drop making a very uneven planting. I had the same results with beans and lentils. Maybe I am doing something wrong but overall I am disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comes mostly pre-assembled; just need to attach the handle and shaft! It’s super lightweight well constructed. I can’t wait to use it in my garden next season.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ll start off by saying that I’ve never used anything like this before. I’ve always crouched down and done all of my gardening on my hands and knees. In the last few years, I’ve noticed that this particular habit badly aggravates my sciatica and is ultimately causing me to do less and less work in the garden, which is soul crushing for me. Thanks to the AgriFab Garden Seeder, I can now comfortably enjoy one of my favorite outdoor activities without experiencing the debilitating pain afterward. The seeder was very easy to put together. The directions were clear and thorough. Altogether it probably took me 15 or 20 minutes, and that’s with me searching for the correct size wrenches multiple times. Hint: You need a total of four tools (two 10mm AND two 13mm wrenches/sockets). The best part? It comes with seven seed plates! Each plate is conveniently labeled with the seed type and spacing. So you can use this to plant hemp, sweet corn, lettuce, turnips, endives, cabbage, onions, tomatoes, leeks, asparagus, spinach, okra, Swiss chard and other medium seeds, baby beans, and peas, among so many others. I used it for lettuce and tomatoes as well as sweet corn. The corn did get stuck as the hopper emptied out but considering the convenience this seeder offers, I’ll deal with the last two or three stragglers. I love the adjustable row marker as it was easy enough to manage once I figured it out. The hardest part was determining out how much to tighten the hardware. Too tight, and the row marker won’t go where you want it. Too lose and it will flop around too much. Luckily there are plenty of videos online if you’re unsure of the best approach. Only time will tell if this product stands up to frequent outdoor use. I am slightly hesitant that the plastic will crack (although it appears to be very heavy duty) or the drive belt will rot over time. Additionally, the seed plates are plastic and I can see someone like my husband manhandling it too much and potentially snapping the discs as he attempts to remove them. Therefore, he will not be touching this garden seeder! Thankfully, the company offers the ability to purchase replacement parts. Overall, I’m very happy with the AgriFab Garden Seeder and would recommend it to anyone who plants row crops at home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Agri-fab planter to replant some beans that didn't come up. This planter worked really well. Once assembled, just set your desired depth and distance between seeds, add seeds, and off you go. The planter was very accurate with what I set it to for and covered the seeds back up nicely. I did have to assemble it, which the directions were a little confusing but not hard at all. It didn't take much time at all to put it together. I can't wait to use it for all my seeds next year. It will make planting a lot easier and more accurate. I would definitely recommend it.
