This Dethatcher is an excellent value for the homeowner who needs to power rake their lawn for a low cost. This unit more than pays for itself when you compare the cost renting a commercial unit or even the costs for paying a lawn professional to do it for you that one time. The performance is in the "ball park" of the much higher costing units. Keep in mind that the homeowner would possibly use this unit 1 or 2 times in a season, so to be practical, this electric Lawn tool is not designed for constant use (like a commercial unit would be). But keeping that in mind, it will easily dethatch the lawn. You may have to do a second pass to remove the most material (max), I did not have a problem with this. The unit is not heavy at all. It is constructed of heavy gauge plastic, but it is build well enough to do the job and not be worried that the thing may fall apart. Bottom line. I have to say that I am more that pleased that I made the purchase, both with performance and price point / budget. It get's my endorsement.Read full review

Great machine for the price and does great job of dethatching lawn. So easy to use and cuts the time in half if you were using dethatcher rake. Took literally 20 mins to do my front lawn. I love this product!!! Best money i ever spent.

First things first. This is an electric machine so having at least two long "orange" extension cords is a must for most large yards. The second thing I learned is that the *grass needs to be cut low to the ground with a bagging mower prior to use. As I churned up my 1/2 acre lot, I was constantly moving the cord out of the way. I ended up creating "block" sections where I would go north and south and then I would return to the same area going east and west. This seemed to produce the most dead grass and also eliminated the need to constantly move the cords out of the way with each long pass. My back yard produced about 8 large trash bags full of debris while my front yard produced over 10 (*done twice in two weeks), I was very happy with this produce and I look forward to overseeding the lawn at the end of September and hopefully restore a lawn that took a beating during these hot days of summer.Read full review

This worked very well considering the small size. Light weight, very easy to assemble. Best for a small lawn. I was concerned about stressing the motor so I did the lawn in sections. There is a learning curve with the power cord placement and the actual dethatching bar is narrower than one might think. I used the highest setting and removed a large amount of thatch. Pulled 15 wheel barrels full of thatch out of a half of an acre. I tried to do the lawn by hand with a thatching rake, very labor intensive and the rake was a third of the cost of his machine.

Nice , light & compact for homeowner. Downsidea maybe that is its ao light may need a bag to weigh dor seep deep dethatch and ensure use of proper gauge & lengrh of extension core for amperage of machine. Or you will fry it.
