Great for Use With Ice-Melter
My wife really loves this for applying ice-melter on our stairs, as it provides lots of options for distributing (difference sized openings), and is much small and lighter than the ones sold by the ice-melter companies. She would highly recommend !

Bigger than it looks, but easy to use
This ended up being larger than I expected, which is actually a plus for covering more area without constant refills. It’s lightweight and easy to handle, and the grip feels comfortable. The different opening options are useful depending on what you’re spreading. Simple and works well.

Worked great! Would buy again!
I like to buy the bigger buckets of salt. This made spreading it really easy. You can adjust how much or how little shakes out by adjusting the piece at the top. Worked really great. I would buy again.

It's come in handy
For my business it has definitely come in handy and saved me time for going back and forth for getting the salt or what you want to put in it

Good
Good so far for distribution of ice melt. I use the wide opening. Sturdy. Easy twist on and off. I have a separate cup for the ice melt bag to pour into this one. Holds enough for one driveway distribution. The long "spout?" makes shaking it all out that end easy. I wish there was an opening between just fully open and the largest available holes to maybe just make it come out a little less, but it's ok. Not mad I bought it.
