Ecolawn Applicator ECO250 top dresser. A fantastic machine for spreading compost or sand on a lawn or golf green. This is an amazing machine and I would highly recommend it if you can find one to rent or purchase.

Honestly IAM glad Connor got one of these. The dude has two like a few things for free, and doesn't flaunt it. And also doesn't give sugar coated reviews.

"two like a few things" ?
looking forward to a new video of top dressing your lawn :) And what a nice truck in your backyard!
I looked into a top dresser dresser for my lawn, but I only have 5000 ft² to deal with. But that gorilla cart you always use I went and got one, and it is great. I moved 5 yd of soil from my backyard renovation in 3 hours. I'm 60 years old I'd say the gorilla cart is awesome!!! Thanks for showing it to me.

Is there a place i could rent this out in 49505 area?
nice addition to your arsenal tools ,happy for you
Game changer and a great purchase. Ryan already had two of them.
I own a ECO 250 and Level Yards during the summer. I’d suggest that you make sure your material is as dry as possible and open the door first before you engage the belt otherwise it will clog and get stuck.. Have fun !!
Cool, can't wait to see this in action! Thanks again for you time!!
Love mine! Close to over a couple hundred applications with mine. Check and make sure your end chain link isn't connected by a cotter pin. Weak point. Learned the hard way. The work of ten guys for sure. Comand topsoil for the win!
Love that machine! I wish they rented them locally.
That equipment is the cats pajamas! Wishing me had a larger parcel! Good stuff Connor! Liking the content! Cheers!
Just ❤️ that machine, simplifies everything and that’s right, with a Honda, it says it all Looking forward to see how it stands Rebel handling 🤩
Would love one. Enjoy it. Can’t wait for the content
That Ecolawn Applicator is pretty sweet!!
Last Aussie 😁. Back saving equipment 😎👍👍. The lawn Rebel reading the owners and safety manuals , must be suffering heat stroke there that day Connor . 😳😬
Love my Ecolawn 250!! The Lawn Ladd Ontario Canada!
Nice piece to add to your lawn arsenal. Spreading sand or custom mix will be a breeze.
Wish I can afford one. 7k. Glad for you connor. Awesome machine.
Finally Connor, you deserve a nice spreader. Spread the love 😁👍
Wow. That place has really developed since I saw your videos. It’s been a good bit. Sorry busy with work not much time to watch everyone’s videos.
I service/maintain a couple of these (prior model it seems) and there are a few issues. The company that owns them sells a variety of materials from chips to mulch to compost to topsoil. These are typically rented with a trailer full of material. The comment made about moisture content is dead on. If the material is sticky in the least, it will just hollow out under the hopperload and the belt will run empty. We put manual agitators on them to sort of jostle the material and try to keep it on the belt. They do work well for light, dry material. One problem we have is not with the machine but more with the customer. We won't rent it for anything it won't spread correctly and safely. So off goes a load of proper material and after the customer finishes it, we have no control over what they try to spread after that. Concrete for all I know. I know they come back in need of repair, even 2 of them with broken transaxles. Also mentioned was the hitch pin clips and cotter pins. The mfg chose to go pretty light duty on nearly all the hardware, and it shows. Several improvements can and should be made of you purchase one, and definitely learn the limits of the machine. Parts are available, but aren't cheap. Need a grease gun and some wrenches to keep the main belt tracking or it will chew the edges off and need replacing. The drive belt are just standard vee belts, but they also need adjustment. I'd say overall, for light duty use, even in the commercial environment, the concept is great, but I hope the design evolves to address several issues the machine has. Oh, and working close to say, a flower bed, you need a deflector plate to keep that side of the machine from flinging material in the bed....or on the driveway...or the street. If you're looking to rent one try the bulk sources of mulch in your area. More likely to find one there than the usual rental outfits. I'm actually toying with building a truly commercial duty machine that will do this. That said, these do work, within limits. They may be a little rich for the average homeowner, but if you have a nice large place, and the bucks....go for it, but watch the weak points. I have one in the shop now ready to reassemble after the aluminum differential housing broke. Customer probably overloaded it, we don't know. Transaxle expensive enough I'm willing to beef it up some. I machined a steel reinforcing part to patch up the cast aluminum. It won't break there again.
What a cool machine. I hope it works well!
Well that’s just made life a lot easier aye, that looks like a great piece of kit. Really great video Connor. Spring is now here in Australia, and I’m prepping for my renovation. I can’t wait Also, I appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos. My dad has told me once I reach 1k subscribers and once the lawn is lookin great, he will look at buying me a reel mower. How good would that be. I’ll get there one day soon. Have a good one Connor and keep safe man
Nice machine, wish Tool rental shops would carry these. Great Canadian company from Magog Québec 👍🏻, will make your top dressing a lot easier 👍🏻😉

Agreed. I've called the rental companies and the landscape companies don't know where to source one either. It's almost worth buying just to rent it out if that wasn't such a hassle to do it.

Having seen Lawn Tips and now you using the Eco-250, I know it’s a legit piece of gear.

-- Rant Alert-- Alot of the rental companies don't carry them in Georgia Warm season country. The Place Ron Henry got his rental from has a "package" that includes trailer, dingo front loader, and a eco lawn spreader for $$$$$. but they only have like one eco lawn they charge $$$ if you cancel. what if it rains, what if your sand does not get delivered. the rental companies say they break alot so it is not worth them carrying them. but yeah buying one as a home owner for 7k for something you use maybe 4 times a year max does not make since for me. But very happy for you Connor
Very nice
I have been looking to rent one of these around Indianapolis for years . Zero luck
Just bought one 2 weeks ago. Trying it out Thursday!!!

Hey Connor. I used this machine before and the only worry in terms of safety i experienced was max filling it and operating on a risen area... it nearly flipped so my advise would be to half or three quarter fill it for anyone with those type of areas 👌

Great video. I thinking about starting my on leveling side business and would love one of these. Do you get the price?
Hopefully you look and respond to comments on your older videos, but have been watching for a couple of years and enjoy your opinion. Question for you is, do you know of any companies down in the Ogden area that allow you to rent machines like this? I am looking to apply some sand to my yard, looking to aerate my yard this week.
Cool machine, but for $8k new, you really have to be in business for it to make sense. Really versatile and desirable for sure. Great content on this channel.
Connor are you going to switch irrigreen sprinkler heads in the future?
OHHH YEEEEAAHHHH!!!
It costs too much for me to buy, and I can't find one available to rent anywhere around me. This really is something that a homeowner would rent, so it's a pisser for sure.
OMG...your dream come true...
in England we find safety pants hilarious
I drove 2 hour to rent one and when using it, the conveyer kept stoping due to the weight. Since it kept doing that when it would start up again it would leave piles on the ground. Other than that I liked the idea of it. I have an acre and wish there was a really large one that would hold about 15 yards of soil.

I have the eco 50. Pull it with my 52" ferris z2. Spread out 6 cu yards in 90 minutes. Customer was thrilled. Walking is over rated.
Game changer light top dressing monthly now
Would be really nice for sand leveling just laying a lot of sand down then going over with some level drags
I've been trying to find one of these to rent!!!!!
Where can you buy this in Australia and how much does it cost.
Mr moustache is the Don!!
What is the price tag on the 250? (current)
The "Auger" needs to be sped-up to compensate for weight with this model. Dryer material you will be fine, but anything with more that 20% Moisture, will get clogged before the Distributor below the Hopper...

Any idea where to rent those?
Also, watch out for the "Shear-Pins & Clips" as they tend to fall off/fail...
I have been trying to rent one but they are never available
IMO there should be a screen type "lid", which must be closed for the engine to start.
