Works good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works good. 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!

I have been using the Sun Joe for the past 3yrs , off and on .It does an incredible job of digging up the loose grass and debris ......But I noticed the scarifier blade is lower on one side than the other !Still does an great job and makes the neighbors jealous !

Worth the money

I found this to work rather well. My lawn greens up earlier than anyone else so trying to find some to dethatch my lawn was almost impossible. Works great. I think the bag is worthless, so I took it off and attached a piece of rigid plastic with zip ties to keep the grass from hitting me. I am amazed how much grass this thing produces- so much I use it to mulch a 100 x 6 flower bed 6 inches thick!
