Awesome product
Oh my goodness this is the best thing ever. It’s my new baby. I thatched my yard today and I must say, I’m impressed. It’s llight weight and easy for me to maneuver. My husband did good with this purchase.

Fast assembly & Easy To Use
Would RecommendAssembled and used it on the same day I received it. It ran great and I used the thatcher. One small issue is that the guidelines in the User Manual are not as complete as possible.

Dead grass
Would RecommendI bought the thacher for my beach house lawn. So far it looks like it pulled up alot of dead grass but the assembly instructions are terrible.

I zip tied the bag to bag frame
Would RecommendThis works great. VERY pleased with the purchase. I used 3 small zip ties to attach the back of the catcher bag to the catcher bag frame so it would do a better job.

Doesn’t feel premium
Assembly instructions are unclear. Feels like a toy.

16" Aerator / Dethatcher
Would RecommendJust got this! Was easy to assemble. Dethatches like a champ/ Haven't used the aerator blade yet. Definitely better than detaching by hand and much quicker! Just wish the bag could hold more.

Lied about inventory
Would Not RecommendOrdered on the 3/29 with delivery ETA on 4/2. Never arrived but Lowes says it shipped, Fedex says it has not. Now when you search the part number online a week later, its unavailable in every store near me, and when I searched it yesterday there was plenty of stock. Now i cant cancel order because Lowes says it has "shipped" Pulled the bait switch, do not order.
