Great Spreader At A Competitive Price
By Louis K.
Florida
Purchased 11/17/2023 |
Review Posted 01/01/2024
Echo RB-60 spreader quality is first class plus a five year warranty. The price was the best of all comparable spreaders. The handle is longer than any spreader in its class.

Dissapointed In Mowers Direct And Echo
By Jasonm I.
Illinois
Purchased 03/04/2022 |
Review Posted 11/15/2023
Buyer beware! Unit stopped working properly while still under warranty. Mowers Direct sent me to the manufacturer for help.
The manufacturer sent me to Farm and Fleet as that is supposedly their service center for warranties.
Farm and Fleet told them don't service or carry Echo products.
So over 3 hours of travel/hold time on various 800 numbers with no resolution.
I should have listened to other people's warning about doing business with Mowers Direct as they do not stand behind their products. It would be nice if Echo and Mowers Direct didn't just point the blame at each other and actually help a paying customer.

Disappointed
By Teri A.
IL
Purchased 03/01/2021 |
Review Posted 07/28/2023
Very hard to push across a slope or in the grass with a 3 - 4 inch cut. The rear 2 legs drag through and catch the grass causing a strong resistance that tilting forward to raise the legs up doesn’t cure because the leverage is lost for forward pushing. It is much more exhausting than pushing my 144 lb. mower which requires some help up slopes despite transmission. It also does it consistently open on squeezing the handle and I’ve had to jigger the wire and go back over areas. Disappointing in this price point. I would not buy it again and am looking to replace it.

Review Posted 05/31/2023
Lasted only 1 summer. Spring it has gone bad so the door opens inconsistently for or barely opens to let out fertilizer. People have said this happens and sure enough happened to me and I rinsed unit out after each use.

Love My Echo
By Ronald K.
Texas
Purchased 04/13/2023 |
Review Posted 05/05/2023
I’ve been Scott Drop spreaders for years. Even purchased their Hand Held model a couple of years ago. Thought their drop spreader with larger wheels would allow fertilizer to drop and stay dry. But there were other reasons that caused me to return it after using it once. My search began and selected the ECHO RB-60. It seemed like every review I read gave it 5 stars. All Pros and no Cons, plus Highly Recommend. WOW! Ordered wondering how long I’d wait before deleted? WOW! Only 3 days. Took me longer to get it out of the box then attached the handle using 2 Null Knobs. Inflatable Tires. Attached Label listing ECHO Spreader Settings to other manufacturers based on the product used. How many times have I misplaced that with other manufacturers or thrown out chemical product bags and forgot the settings. Countless! Enough said. I highly recommend the ECHO RB-60.

Best Yard Employee You Can Own
By Mark K.
Connecticut
Purchased 04/05/2023 |
Review Posted 04/27/2023
Overall, this is a great spreader. Good sized hopper, and the pneumatic wheels make it easy to push compared to any cheaper plastic wheel version. The side deflector is simple to flip up or down with your foot. Quality materials. Easy to read chart label is convenient to reference for appropriate fertilizer application levels. Not too cheap at $160, but overall a great investment. Very pleased with it!
