I brought one last year and didn't use, this week I've scarified one of my lawns used the landzie spreader, what a great tool!! It's was so much easier spreading the top dressing using it. Got two more lawns to do now
I'm very impressed with the Landzie demo and was thinking great this will be an excellent addition to my lawn arsenal, so was set to buy one. That was until I saw the price - am I alone in thinking a fair price for this would be £80-£100 for what is essentially a mesh can, that is nothng revolutionary whatsoever in terms of the design and materials...!? £250 is ridiculous, but am sure they will still sell. But not for me unfortunately, have got to justify the spend...
As a professional this is a great buy at a great price. I currently use a £1000 bannerman mini topper topdresser which is great but it's a lot heavier, hard in tight space and 4x the cost!. It also has 2 punctured tyres so guess what my next purchase is going to be....
Looks a lot better than the Woodside equivalent I bought! The Woodside one uses nyloc nuts to attach the axle - but the arms are too wide so, even with nylocs, it comes apart every two passes of the lawn. Came apart 30 times! I’ve demanded money back.
Great video, looking forward to the result update. Just looked at the product and ... my that is expensive for that piece of kit. I think I’ll stick to the shove and spread method but thanks for the info on this next gadget
Thanks for the review. I have just sieved a bulk bag of Rolawn topsoil for a new lawni(it is better quality than the local builders merchants supply, but then it is also twice the price) and I can see the benefit of it sieving the soil as well as spreading it. But I would still buy a lute for levelling and save £100
I bolted a peice of 2"x2" x 4' long to a Rake and that works for levelling for me. Really cheap, easy to store. As for the perforated bin on a handle that could be knocked up in an afternoon. But a garden sieve does the same.
Nice. Having just topdressed my lawn, I wish I'd had this. The most annoying thing was all the little balled bits left at the end.Nice bit of kit, though expensive.
Matt i hope you and the family are well. Looking forward to the season and getting to grips, just to let you know i got one of these now my wife is looking for you!! lol Take care mate.
Hi Colin cheers no you want to top dress when the lawn is actively growing in the srping so the grass can recover, it will growth through pretty quick in the spring
I want to sow some cover crops in a garden patch I had peas planted in. I would like to use the "no dig..till" method to so these cover crop seeds. I wonder if I could just spreading out the seed on top of the clean/non-disturbed soil, then add a thin layer of compost over the top of the seeds using this device? I could also spread out some wheat straw as well, like people do when planting grass seeds. I see that others sow cover crops by simply raking in the seeds to the topsoil, but covering them with a think layer of compost using this thing would be much less labor intensive and faster.
I don't grow seeds but if you are looking to cover them with a thin layer of compost this will do that no problem very quickly and easily. If you get bagged compost it can be quicker to load into the machine vs a bulk bag and wheel barrow but depends on cost, site access etc.
Great tool , do you think it will be strong enough . I was wondering what size of metal do the use in the cross bar supports . Great channel , I really enjoy .
Eonder how well something like this would work as a soil sieve. Fill it, rock it back and forth over a tarp, and then dump the uncomposted material back into the pile. Just a thought.
Looks useful but not for £250, perhaps if you had a really big lawn. Would use it 1-2 times a year max. Hiring would be a much better option like a scarifier.
Garden Lawncare Guy ... i cant remember how much it was but if i dont even remember i know me.. it was no more than $200.. cause im not wealthy... wish i were!.. lol
Yes but I would not use that for topdressing the lawn without something like the landzie as there are too many small stones in it. For topdressing you need the topdressing mix which is finely screened like this gardenlawncareguy.com/shop/soil-dressing/70-30-top-dressing-bulk-bag-1000kg/
Seems expensive but the alternatives are much more time consuming and back breaking. Great review! Ordered mine today and used the discount you provided. Many thanks. 👍
@@GardenLawncareGuy is this link still working for your referral? They've got a bit of a deal that's £50 cheaper than the Amazon link at the top, I think I'm going to treat myself(my customers😉)
Would this roller work with a masonry sand top soil mixture. Called lawn conditioner at my nearest nursery. 70 percent sand 30 percent processed pine and lead compost, Very curious. Thanks
Great video!! I'm a newbie to lawn care. I got interested in this product so I bought it and used today. I ordered tote bag of garden soil and mixed with composted manure. soil was very moist and there were lots of soil clumps. I felt like not much soil didn't come out of the spreader. I didn't know what I was doing haha...I spread too thick on some areas and many spots were thinner than I expected. so I ended up spreading some more by hand.. I'm learning~. it is also very expensive here in Canada as well 🤐

Hey, I was wondering if you could advise me. I have a pretty nice lawn with hardly any weeds. As a result of redoing our patio that goes around our lawn I now need to raise the height of our lawn by like 2-3cm, I’ve bought topsoil and ready to the job but I’m not sure if I need to kill off the old lawn or just cover it over with topsoil and seed a new lawn ontop? Could you please advise. Great videos. Thanks Ben
I have just taken delivery of my Landzie spreader and wish I had had one years ago. It has reduced the time I spend top dressing by 80%. It is expensive but what value do you put on your time?
Great vid yet again dude 👍 Can you recommend a good quality lawn seed supplier. Got some bare patches in my lawn after scarifying I bought some rolawn medallion seed but does not look to have germinated after overseeding. Thinking of trying a different seed? Any tips would be great.
My back is rowlawn medallion for the past 3 years and I've have great results. Ive tried a1 prem pro on the front and it looks ace with low maintenance. Ive just overseeded my back with a1 plat pro will take longer to germinate
@@GardenLawncareGuy how long did the medallion take to germinate I overseeded Monday am I being impatient expecting results already. I can still see the seed on the grass?
@@GardenLawncareGuy thanks mate hopefully it will take. Been watering every day as we have had no rain fall but don't want to over water and cause the seeds to rot.
@@GardenLawncareGuy cool, thanks for replying so quickly. do you think its best to use sand to level? if so where would get it from? theres different types of sand right?
My lawn is way too small to justify the price of that thing, no matter how awesome it may be. I’ll just go the old way, throw spread by shovel and rake.
Not to be a tw*t, but assembly is needed when it comes in 2 parts, even though it's only clicking the handle in, that's still assembling. Ok I'm sorry bye lol.

All going well till I saw the price 😱 gulp !! Nice vid tho !
I know right? Who would have thought a little rolling basket would be that expensive.
How much
You can rent from home depot for like 10 dollars
They sell them in Holland for 115 euro I just got 1
Well worth it
I wonder what their profit margin is?!
Nice. Having just topdressed my lawn, I wish I'd had this. The most annoying thing was all the little balled bits left at the end.Nice bit of kit, though expensive.
Yeah I know what you mean. You never now if its rocks or a ball of soil!
Matt i hope you and the family are well. Looking forward to the season and getting to grips, just to let you know i got one of these now my wife is looking for you!! lol Take care mate.
Haha cheers dave! Getting ready for my renovation next week if the weather dries up
@@GardenLawncareGuy same here Matt thinking of using Jacks Magic as there is lot saying it is good 👍
Yeah I use that too when I'm only seeding dave
May seem expensive but for a lawncare business it could save a lot of time and cost on materials.
$299/£249? Not for the typical home owner at that price in fairness. Better suited to self-employed landscaper.
How much soil/product is dropped approximately, each pass? 1/4”?
great video!!..would i be ok to top dress my lawn now so its ready for spring or is winter time not a good idea cheers 🙂
Hi Colin cheers no you want to top dress when the lawn is actively growing in the srping so the grass can recover, it will growth through pretty quick in the spring
ok thanks 🙂
How large are the holes in the mesh, about 1/2"?

It works very well to remove stones, I've tried
Hi there,
I just bought it recently. Roughly how much area you can cover witb one full load?
Looks useful but not for £250, perhaps if you had a really big lawn. Would use it 1-2 times a year max. Hiring would be a much better option like a scarifier.
I've found the 24" is just too small. Have to fill it frequently and takes more time.
Price! Be nice if you could attach an outer sleeve to use as a roller
nice idea
I just bought the exact same prouduct in March. was definitely worth it. to me anyway
Great to hear!
Garden Lawncare Guy ... i cant remember how much it was but if i dont even remember i know me.. it was no more than $200.. cause im not wealthy... wish i were!.. lol
Looks great and I was all set to buy one, but then... £270?! Shame, I'd have certainly snapped one up if it had been
Was the Rolawn product their standard topsoil?
Yes but I would not use that for topdressing the lawn without something like the landzie as there are too many small stones in it. For topdressing you need the topdressing mix which is finely screened like this gardenlawncareguy.com/shop/soil-dressing/70-30-top-dressing-bulk-bag-1000kg/
I've done my first cut and the lawn is covered in weeds and thin. Would you kill weeds first then start with the seeding?
Yes James
@@GardenLawncareGuy I had alot would that spot spray br the way to go it something else ? Why not dig them out ?

Approximately how much would it cost to top dress an acre of grass adequately?
I think a rake will do same job easy especially for small lawns.
Would this roller work with a masonry sand top soil mixture. Called lawn conditioner at my nearest nursery. 70 percent sand 30 percent processed pine and lead compost, Very curious. Thanks
I have had better luck with rolling composted cotton burrs than any fertilizer has ever done. It improved my soil quality dramatically.

Hi Ben its quite likely that 3cm of soil would kill off or smother the ohe old lawn anyway and that you would need to seed it.
Can I use it for horse/cow manure?

Hello mate
Is there still a discount code for this ?
Hi mate no discount code has gone now - happy new year
Great vid mate. But for that price I'd expect it to top dress itself 🤣🤣🤣
I wish it did, im aching this week after a full renno
Leave the board for cement! U have a $250 ( way 2 much $ i might add) peat moss spreader So get u a $120 lawn level rake throw wood in scrap pile
Good information, thanks

Much too expensive for what it does.
I have just taken delivery of my Landzie spreader and wish I had had one years ago. It has reduced the time I spend top dressing by 80%. It is expensive but what value do you put on your time?
Good to hear Christine
I think for the cost is too much. I would save £100 and get a lawn lute instead for £150 which helps level / spread the dirt into the lawn too.
id love a lute too, that are great
nice item but at £250 think I will wait a couple of years and try and pick a used one up on ebay!....very good review though.
Thanks Robert
Very nice, Thanks.
Thank you too!

@@GardenLawncareGuy how long did the medallion take to germinate I overseeded Monday am I being impatient expecting results already. I can still see the seed on the grass?
Yeah its will grow. The feacues can take longer in that mix. Even rye isn't that sure on 5 days germination. Keeping it moist and it will come through
@@GardenLawncareGuy thanks mate hopefully it will take. Been watering every day as we have had no rain fall but don't want to over water and cause the seeds to rot.
Water lights a few times a day only a light watering a few mins, feacues can take abit longer to come through
Very nice, wonderfull
Thank you
I just brought one.
Nice!
How much????? Its just a bit of metal!!!
Good stuff
can this help with levelling as well? My lawn is good but i have lots of bumps and lumps in it....
It helps to spread the material evenly, then you would need to use a lute or some wood to create the level.
@@GardenLawncareGuy cool, thanks for replying so quickly. do you think its best to use sand to level? if so where would get it from? theres different types of sand right?
Check this out its the best! Comes in small or bulk bags gardenlawncareguy.com/shop/soil-dressing/70-30-top-dressing-bulk-bag-1000kg/

Not for the dressing but there is some sales on seed right now on site
Fantastic piece of kit but about £200 out of reach for me
Hello i live in Italy could you tell me how much Is It in euro thank you
What’s the point of doing this??
That spreader would be a lot better if the catches were on the side.
Bravo magnifique
You don’t want to foot stomp it my man. Just brush it haha
My lawn is way too small to justify the price of that thing, no matter how awesome it may be. I’ll just go the old way, throw spread by shovel and rake.
Yep, fitting the right tool for the job. Sometimes manual is just the best way for some applications for sure Peter
I don’t get why they’re are so expensive!!!
These are too simple to be that expensive. Demand must be low
How much????? No thanks!
Those things are stupid expensive. You can build your own for about $40. 😆
This is expensive and I think it is overpriced !!!
It’s a great tool in spreading mulch but who the fuck wants to speaks over 300 dollars
Awww man can I barrow that compost spreader!!!!! Lol
Haha 😄
they are overpriced $399
Not to be a tw*t, but assembly is needed when it comes in 2 parts, even though it's only clicking the handle in, that's still assembling. Ok I'm sorry bye lol.
this thing looks like a tin can
