| I just tried this out, and it seemed to work well. I planted some garlic seeds using the pea plate, and some cilantro seed using the beet plate. The ground hadn't been worked for several weeks, but was still fairly soft. The planter went right through it and seemed to be picking up the seed pretty well. I was afraid that it wouldn't work very well with a small amount of seed, but I put a 2 oz packet of seed in and it picked it up just fine. It appears to be well made and I hope to be able to use it for many years. Be sure you put the correct plate on before you put the seed in the hopper, though! |

This garden seeder is well thought out and includes some nice little features - drags dirt over the seeds and has a row marker - which add to its utility. The only drawback I found was that the dirt you plant in must be worked up until it is smooth and fine or the seeder is hard to direct in a straight line and doesn't make a consistent trough to place the seed in.
Other than that this is a sturdy, easy to use tool which anyone with a large garden will want to own. |

| Not happy with this. It was really not what I was looking for. Having bought it, I will have to keep it and put it in my yard sale. However, it arrived well packaged and in 2 days after my order was placed. That's was I call GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE so 5 STARS for the seller. Just not happy with my choice of seeder. |

| This is a terrific tool and a must-have for any home gardener. It makes seeding a medium to large garden almost effortless. It takes less than 5 minutes to set it up for operation and less than a minute to change out the seed wheels for a variety of seed sizes. There is no bending over, just walk along behind the seeder and it performs exactly as detailed in the product description. You do have to select the correct seed wheel for the type of seed you want to plant ~ that is the key to using this great tool. I planted tiny-sized seeds from lettuce to beets, all the up to large field corn & bean seeds, with ease! This would be a great gift for any gardener on your list. |

| We liked the way the seeder worked in our garden. Using it saved us from putting to many seeds in at one time, so the seeds went further. The seed plates that came with it were great. Thanks |
