Good for the price!

Works reasonably well for a cheaper spreader however, it does jam up on larger pieces of rock salt. If you use bagged salt which tends to clump, be prepared to unplug the spreader. This is powered by a 12v plug. We ran it through the passenger door and still had plenty of length. The power switch is in line with the power cord, so installation is quick.
