Purchase options and add-ons
- High-capacity hopper: Extra large, rust- and dent-proof poly hopper holds 175 lb. (3. 5 cu. Ft.) of seed, fertilizer, Ice melt and more to maximize the time spent spreading vs. Refilling the hopper. Ideal size for yards 1 acre or larger.
- Lasting durability: All parts that come in contact with corrosive fertilizers are designed to last: heavy polyethylene hopper with stainless steel hardware, spinner shaft, and agitator. Glass-filled nylon gears are fully enclosed with nylon gearbox for additional protection.
- Patented autoflow with spread pattern control: Brinly spreaders are designed for professional-level results. Different materials spread very differently; directional spread pattern control allows you to center and even-out the distribution pattern for a balanced application of any material. The patented autoflow technology stops material from spreading when the tractor stops - eliminating waste and burns that commonly occur with other tow-behind spreaders.
- Easy calibration: calibration controls feature an easy-to-reach locking dial for secure rate-gate settings. Brinly provides hundreds of pre-calibrated settings to help you get to work and get the job done more accurately and efficiently.
- Quick 30 minute assembly: includes pictorial assembly manual with fastener skin pack; each part is matched to each assembly step. Assembly video also available on Brinly YouTube channel
- Universal hook-up: a single, heavy-duty universal Hitch Pin is included to easily attach the spreader to any rider or tractor and most any ZTR or ATV.
- Spread width up to 12ft: High-speed, 6:1 glass-filled nylon gears provide widest spread pattern at slowest speeds.

I tried a competing product, and returned it because of a cheap plastic flow control design. The Brinly BS36BH, 175 lb., Black Tow-Behind Broadcast Spreader flow control works perfectly. The best surprise came when I learned that the materials can be aimed to the left or right side! For example, when you are spreading along a sidewalk or other path where you don't want seeds or any material to be broadcast onto the sidewalk. Excellent feature!
I spread a fifty pound (50 lb.) bag of grass seed and it filled the hopper completely; the cover (provided) is required to keep the contents inside the hopper. Covers are optional accessories on some models.
I rarely find products that merit a FIVE STAR. This one is the best in class for my 4,300 sq. yards of landscaped areas.
I've only used it once so far, and it worked well. It rolls nicely on the tires and has a good spread. The lever stayed in place for me, but I can see where some of the reviewers mentioned it may vibrate over time. I tightened down the pivot mechanism very tight, so that may be why. If it does happen, it would be easy enough to fix with a bungee cord or similar means.
Assembly took around an hour. Most of the parts are in a blister pack separated by each step - very helpful to make sure you're using the right parts in the right places. The instructions were pretty good, but missed a few little details. Most notably that you need to attach the gold-colored linkage onto the adjuster before you finish assembling that piece - you cant slip it in after. Be very careful not to over tighten the bolts going thru the plastic bin, as it is easy for them to deform the plastic. The plastic is not thin, there is just not a flat on the tube under it.
