BEWARE

Works fairly well, but I have waited two years to buy a replacement spring tine replacement cartridge. The tines worse down fairly fast, and this company has no time line as to when it will be available. The only part they now carry is the scarifier replacement, which may be a bit too damaging if you use this to just get dead thatch out a couple of times a year.

AG805e First use
on May 27, 2023
Posted by: Terry 0
from Cadyville,NY
First dethatching with my new Ag805e. Lawn about 18000 sq ft. Went well except what I believe to be major design flaw which I didn't see any review pointing out and little info in manual. The air intake plugged after the first hour of use. Motor safety shut unit down. I cleaned filter with brush but found it difficult to clean and see no easy way to remove. My fix was to use a covid mask taped over the inlet. Much easier to clean and change!

On my way to a revitalized lawn!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Sunjoe Electric Lawn Dethatcher and Scarifier came ready to assemble with easy to follow instructions. I was able to put it together myself with no tools. The height is perfect for me at 5'8, and the handle is comfortable. The height is adjustable. The push start works easily every time. I appreciate the maintenance free, no-gas or oil convenience of electric. I am not a fan of maneuvering the cord around, but that comes with electric machines, and the cord clip helped control it. The motor was strong enough to handle my lawn and remove quite a bit of dead grass and clippings. The machine is wide, about 15 inches, and on the middle setting with the scarifier, it removed a full bag after each 10 feet of lawn. A larger bag would cut down on the stopping and starting to continuously empty the clippings. I appreciate the option to use either the power rake or scarifier function. I have only used the scarifier, so I have not had to change out the parts. There are 5 settings for depth, so you can choose what best fits your needs. The bag comes on and off easily to dispose of clippings and put back on. Overall, this has been a great addition to my lawncare collection!

Great lawnmower!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great de thatcher! It is lightweight and easy to use on the lawn. It cuts my lawn leaving a look that is close to a profession cut except I didn’t have to hire someone to do it for me. The color is also easy on the eyes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this SunJoe AJ805E Electric Lawn dethatcher with collection bag is the bomb it only took 10 minutes to put together. This is a game changer for not having to rake leaves I wish I knew about this product sooner with 4 acres to rake and make my yard nice looking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, this Sun Joe electric lawn dethatcher came at a perfect time. Spring is my husband's favorite season because he loves bringing our lawn back to life after winter. This dethatcher is great for clearing up those patches on your lawn, and he is loving life now that he has an electric one to help him!
