Bosmere Products W105 winterzoutvaatje, 5 kg capaciteit, kunststof, groen

Highly recommended!Purchased to salt paths and small car park outside office during icey spells.Works brilliantly and so much easier than using a shovel or by hand.You have to shake your hand up and down or twist back and fourth and it evenly distributes salt while walking.Well worth it.

This is a very well designed tool, and it's helping me get much more mileage out of my salt supply (which is being consumed by this New England winter we're having).When I first read that it holds 10 lbs. of salt, I thought that was not enough, but I was wrong -- it's just the right amount. That weight lets you shake and spread the salt easily.In the past, anything I tried (including flinging the salt by hand) proved to be inaccurate and wasteful. I'd get little piles of salt right next to bare spots. And I'd end up using way more than was necessary (basically, just from putting down too much trying to cover the bare spots).With this, I get a very even spread very easily from the start, and every pound of salt is obviously a) covering more square feet than before and b) leaving no bare spots.This is particularly important for my 50 foot driveway. It's packed gravel, which "eats" salt much faster than pavement. If I can't get the right spread much of my salt will be wasted, then I'll run out, Home Depot won't have any left, etc. I've found that, if I just focus on the two tire tracks, I can get the driveway done with this device in about 15 minutes, and it takes me about seven or eight refills at most (about two 40 lb. bags) to get a nice, dense coating that cuts through the snow and ice and keeps working for days on the gravel. Very gratifying!My only concern: the top is hinged on two sides (with a split down in the middle of the top) and the "hinges" are actually just molded plastic. So, you're bending plastic over and over again each time you open it and I wonder how long that will last. But I've opened it dozens of times with no actual signs of wear, so I'm not going to worry about it.Simple, reliable device that just works and is very easy to use.

Produit pour disperser le sel que ce soit sur la route ou dans des mauvaises herbes. Très bien. Solide mais je trouve le produit un peu cher pour du plastic dur.

Much better than scooping salt back and forth to a bin or from a heavy pail.

I bought this in anticipation of it snowing this winter but it has not done so yet.I have given it a "dry run" with a salt grit mix with the largest opening selected, I also tried it with some sand I had left over from the drive blocks.So far my only concern is that the hinges that open the top are not really hinges but a thinner bit of plastic and I am not sure how these will stand up to much use. If you want one of these search for the best price as they vary tremendously for the same item from the same manufacturer.I will update this review when/if I use it in anger.
