Ratings & Reviews for Blue Hawk BH 42-IN LAWN SWEEPER (+623847)

Solidly Built — Works Well

Bought the sweeper a month ago. Very solidly built. Instructions were a little bit difficult given the drawings but got it together no problem. Works well picking up grass and pine cones and spikey balls. Assembled in America!!!

Terrible design

Don’t make the same mistake I did do not buy this sweeper not as good as my old 42” one from agi fab does not rake leaves worth a darn and the wheels lock up constantly terrible design

Tow Sweeper

They should pay you for assembling this product. It takes forever. The instructions are awful. If you buy this use the video to help you assemble the product. It's not great but it's better than the printed instructions. Also two bolts missing.

Make it tougher .

Wife used it for 2 runs and the bag assembly frame just snapped in two. The bag frame need to be made of much thicker metal or yall need to state a weight limit of about 20 pounds because it cant handle much more than that apparently .

Well built product.

I've used it twice this fait and it's saved me a lot of raking. It handles the pine needles and cone well on smooth ground, but not on the uneven turf. Tree roots and depressions do not allow the brushes to reach the material, but that is to be expected. A little rearranging with a rake solves the problem quickly. I am very happy with the product. The only complaint is that the drawings in the assembly instructions are somewhat deceiving. Thanks for saving me much time and energy.

Poor design

My first one of the same size lasted a long time. I purchased this one a year ago and it is wearing right through the front of the basket as you can see in the picture. Also, it does not sit flat to the ground. I noticed in the Videos, the arm come straight back, whereas on mine it bends upward at the end. Will need a new one soon and not this

As advertised

purchased another sweeper from other manufacturer and it was missing parts and couldn't even use a first time. put the AGri-Fab together and it worked great first time. hope this continues for years to come.

I failed.

This isn't a lawn sweeper. It's an IQ test. I failed it once when I bought it and once when I tried to assemble it.

42" Tow Behind Lawn Sweeper

I did own a larger 52 inch sweeper. It lasted 20+ years. I'm getting older, so I bought a smaller 42" sweeper. It works fine-to a degree. The assembly instructions (with the bent tubes) sucked. They were not specific enough to tell them apart-except with trial and error, It picks up fine-but the 2 snaps at either end in front don't stretch long enough to meet it's counterpart. This makes a large space at either side which allows debris to cramp and wiggle out. I will be fixing/altering ...

The sweeper works great but the instructions were awful. The brushes did not line up with the holes so I called and the woman who answered was very helpful. I had c called earlier to find out the weight and the woman who answered was not good. Instructions should have said the bag arm tubes go inside. Also I was missing one nut and one cotter pin. Sweeper works better than vacuum on my John Deere lawn tractor

Finding Parts Good Luck

Hopper metal piece broke and cannot find the part to replace. Have to buy brand new unit for one part. Even Parts warehouse does not carry the part. Waste of money

Terrible Assembly Instructions

I just finished putting my lawn sweeper together today and I found the assembly instructions to be very difficult to follow. I would actually say they were downright terrible. When all you have is diagrams to follow, not real pictures and no written instructions it makes it very difficult to put together. If I had seen this before I bought the product I would not have purchased it.

Assembly instructions

Bought this sweeper to replace one that finally wore out, it worked great for 30 years .I am sure the new one will work great. However the assembly instructions are really hard and confusing to follow

45-320 Lawn Sweeper in WV

Just purchase my 45-320 Lawn Sweeper. I love it and it does a great job. However, the wheel height adjustment has been changed from previous models and it takes a wrench or socket wrench to adjust whereas previously it was adjustable without any tools. Also, the assembly instruction STINK! They are pictures only with NO written instructions

Hard to Assembly but easy to use once assembled!

I bought this to replace a worn-out sweeper I had used for ten years. Although assembly instructions were hard to interpret, we were able to put it together using YouTube Videos. Once assembled, we are very pleased with the product.

Buy the Dethatcher at the Same Time

Easy to use. Great product for the price. I also bought the dethatcher at the same time. I would recommend the combo for a healthy lawn. I did lose a lock/holdong pin and the pin it was holding. I expect because I failed to completely push the holding pin into place.

Good construction

Works great. I have small and large leaf trees, and it picks up both well. My leaves were wet also. I am certain it will be very impressive with dry.

wheels are junk...buy elsewhere...lasted a half a season
