RB-60 60-lb Heavy-Duty Broadcast Spreader

Last verified May 13, 2026 by the Lifetime Picks Editorial Team

ECHO's RB 60 is the 60 lb capacity broadcast spreader homeowners and small landscapers use for fertilizer / grass seed / ice melt application across half acre to 2 acre properties. The pneumatic rubber tires roll over uneven lawn without the bounce of solid plastic wheels (which causes uneven spread pattern), the gear driven impeller delivers consistent throw distance across a full hopper, and the 60 lb steel hopper resists the dents and warping that destroy plastic spreaders within a few seasons. r/Lawncare, r/Landscaping, and r/HomeImprovement consistently surface ECHO and Lesco broadcast spreaders as the BIFL alternatives to the Scotts homeowner spreaders that fail within 3-5 years. ECHO's commercial grade engineering parts are widely available from any ECHO dealer.
