I have a small yard 75x75 and the dethatcher is perfect Digs under and gets dried grass up with ease. Love this product Perfect for a female easy to use
I didn’t know much about thatching but decided I would give this a try. Wishes it was battery powered but that will come with time. I have only used this one day so far on the parkway between the pool fence and the yard. It took the misc plants, clover, dandelions and such out and left only the grass. I filled 3 lawn and leaf bags full, I am impressed.
The thatcher saved us a lot of time and did it’s job. However, it looses its power after a few rows due to overheating. It worked better without the attached bag. Overall, we like the unit and reduced raking time. Well worth the cost.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love all of my other Worx tools, but this dethatcher was very disappointing. The handle was missing pre-drilled pilot holes, I had to drill them myself. The angle and height of the handle is non-adjustable. The angle causes the front to dig in to the ground. The wheel-height adjustment does not stay put. I couldn't go more than a few feet before they come out of selected position. The unit only bagged about a 1/10th of what was dethatched. Just overall, this item is sub-par to the other Worx tools I have. I had to return it.

Hello, Respected Customer! It's sad that the Worx dethatcher fell short of your expectations. We greatly value your input because it helps us understand where we can improve. In the meanwhile, I recommend signing up for Worx newsletters to remain up to date on what's new.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good operation. Wound up with 5 full yard bags of thatch. The highest setting for the prongs works best out-of-the-box. Two more settings available for deeper thatching or as needed over time. Unlike the battery-driven tools, this one requires an electrical cord, which takes some adjustments during operation.
