Build Quality of Echo RB-60 Spreaders vs. Older Scotts Spreaders

I used my Scotts Speedy Green 3000 for a few years now, but it is really starting to show its age. While researching replacements, my first choice was the newer Scotts Elite but then I started watching reviews for alternatives. Do your research and don't settle for the bare minimum. When they were similarly priced at $99, the air filled tires of the Echo already gave it the edge.
