The Chapin 150 lb. Poly Hopper Auto-Stop Tow-Behind Spreader saves you from reaching back to stop your spreader at the right time, wasting seed or fertilizer in the process. You don't need to strain your back to stretch, and you won't need to worry about burnt lawns because of uneven applications. Hooks on to the hitch on the back of an ATV, UTV or tractor. The auto-stop dual impeller stops spreading when you're not moving. It's constructed to handle tough terrain around your farm, field and acreage. The 150 lb. hopper is made from rust-resistant poly, and it's supported on a powder-coated steel frame. There are 11 incremental gate adjustments so you can dial in your mix to fit your application. This unit not recommended for use with sand and sand mixes. Made in the USA with global materials and backed by Chapin's limited lifetime warranty.

So far so good

I bought this to use with my zero turn mower as it does no have an on/off lever that must be manipulated in order to use, which would not be reachable from the seat of the mower. The spreader is easy to assemble with only a few hand tools in about an hour and a half, I am disabled and can't move very well or it would have been faster by at least half. The unit tows very well and have had no issues. I close the flow control and fill the hopper and tow to the starting point, adjust the flow control as per instructions in the manual and go. I don't have to worry about having a pile of seed or fertilizer before I get it moving as the hole from the hopper is offset from the exit port that feeds the spreader mechanism.

Serious issues

I agree, the design is top heavy and causes the spreader to topple over on very small grades and while turning. Also, the hitch is not “professional” quality in my opinion. When this thing rolled over in the first 30 minutes of use, the hitch folded up like a wonton. After spending about an hour putting it together, it was a real downer when the spreader rolled and the folded hitch trapped the hitch pin for another 45 minutes. The thing was useless after that.

Poor Design and inferior Quality

15 days ago
Used it 5 times. The gearbox failed and then the wheel fell off. The hopper was never overloaded. I now have a lot less money and the manufacturer will not help.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I finally found a spreader with an automatic stop feature that automatically stops dropping the material (fertilizer etc) when you stop moving forward. This keeps you from burning the lawn and wasting material. I highly recommend this item. Tractor supply assembled the item before I picked it up.

This thing is a piece of garbage

2 months ago
The screws holding the gear housing vibrated loose after less than 45 minutes of use and I had to retighten and replace one that fell off completely. Additionally there was a pathetic amount of grease in the gears which was discovered shortly after tightening the screws when a slight crunching could be heard. Finally the attachment arms also vibrated loose so I had to go buy lock washers to keep it from falling apart from the beginning. So disappointed and the craftsmanship was horrible. So bad that this is the first time I’m ever posting a review online for anything.

No, I do not recommend this product.
