Dethatcher

The Westinghouse dethatcher is easy to use and seems to work well, but the cord holder doesn't hold the cord well. An improvement would be to make the bag bigger to hold more debris.

Nice looking and light weight

Great alternative to manual raking or power rake rental. This does the job of dethatching and aerating my lawn for much less cost and much less effort. I'm glad it is light weight and small for easy storage on a shelf.

This is a great alternative to a power rake rental especially on my hilly yard. A heavy machine would be difficult to manage but this worked very well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have only done a small patch of my lawn so far, but am amazed at the amout of thatch it picked up. I wish it had a larger collection bag.

Nice Looking Product

Just received. About to assemble and try out. Feel like it'll do the job of dethatching and aerating my lawn for much less cost than hiring a landscaper or buying a battery or gas powered machine. Definitely looks like a lot less manual labor than doing it with a dethatch rake and walking the lawn with aerating shoes. I'll submit another review after using it.

Bag fills quickly but I can deal with that.

Other reviewers complain that the collection bag fills too quickly. While true, I don't think there's any way around it. I have to empty it after each row of 25 feet or so. But it's still much better than having to rake afterwards! Plus I found a way to extend the bag filling to about two rows. At the end of the first row, I open the bag and push the accumulated thatch towards the back. This gives me a little more capacity and is still easier than picking up the bag and emptying it after each row.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great dethatcher!

I had been thinking about renting a dethatcher and instead chose to buy this. If I use it 3 times, it has paid for itself. The ability to change depths is great and easy to do. The only down side is the bag does not capture all of the grass. It seems to be better just to do it without the bag and rake up after. I'm so glad I bought it.

Westinghouse Dethatcher /Aerator

I recently purchased this item and it was easy to assemble / connect with a power cord and begin using . I was able to fill up two large green bins with grass cuttings. I still have quite a bit of cuttings yet but I am able to reseed and fertilize so I can have fresh new grass, It is easy to use and has a large thatch bag
I would recommend this to a friend!
