Good concept, not sure on execution February 16, 2010 Spinner (Burlington, VT USA) I've had one of these for two planting seasons. It has a plastic plate that scoops up seeds from the bin and drops them down through a drill below the soil line. Different kinds of seeds require their own plates. Because the plate is made of plastic it flexes and seeds can get trapped behind it. I think metal plates would work better. You have to keep a close eye on the mechanism to catch it when it malfunctions, which it will, trust me. I find it difficult watching the mechanism closely and running a straight row. I have used it to create a furrow and then I manually drop the seeds into ground. I had high hopes for this that weren't realized.
Garden seeder December 19, 2009 M. Babbie (NY) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I really have not even openred the box yet as it is a christmas present for myself. I have been looking for one of these and all have been about 100 bucks and additional seed plates cost even more. I will not be using this item for several months as now it is about 5 below zero!!! I hope for the price it will work well and if it doesn't I am not out much money. Good luck if you plan on purchasing!
Earthway Garden Planter December 4, 2009 Stuart E. Mason (Ranger, GA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This little machine is a true time and back saver for me. My garden is in a river bottom. I till the soil and it becomes very soft. I let the Planter create the rows as it easily rolls through the soft soil. It puts all the seeds at same dept and germination is high. I think if the soil was hard with clods and rocks it would probably not work as good. I borrowed one from a friend this past spring, used it with great results, and then purchased one recently. For me and my application, it can't be beat.
Excellent product October 15, 2009 Joy (Arkansas) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was so pleased with this product. Well made, easy to put together. I haven't used it in the garden yet, but it looks like it will be a gem.
disapointed July 1, 2009 J. Peterson (Pgh Pa.) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think the product is well over priced for the job it did. It dropped to many seed's. It called for one seed every 7". this planter dropped 5 to 8 seed's every 7". It does not cover the seeds as stated. If someone wants one for half price, I have one for sale. Just remember there is nothing precise about this machine. Don't waste your money.
