Hermsche Plug Aeration Manual Lawn Coring Aerator 4 Core with Semi-Open Slot Hollow Tine Lawn Aerator Heavy Duty Plug Core Aeration Tool for Compacted Soils and Lawns Yard, 35.5" x 11", Black

I like the product, what I didn't like is the fact it came to me used. I opened the box and their was dirt all in the box and you could see scuffs in the paint where it had obviously been used before. The hardware was also spread out all in the box. Luckily I was able to find all of the pieces. Other than that the product has worked fine. Just didn't like the fact I bought a used product at a new price.

Live in the south and dealing with clay this tools teeth bent almost immediately even after applying water first hand. Sharpened with grinder and we were back to work. No complaints really, maybe reinforcing the tips will help?

Device looks good, especially for the money, but it arrived without the cleaning tool and the screws to hold it together. I may order it again and cross my fingers.

Works well in dryer lawns but not when the yard is quite wet. Wait for it to dry out a bit or you will have a bit of a muddy mess. Cleaning works pretty well too but again, not if the ground is really soaked. I am glad I bought it as I have a largish area that needs it.

It's very hard to core .

First 1000sqft and I have a bent handle. Still have about 4000sqft left and it’s gonna take a while with a bent hand. This happened due to the use of round tubes. If the updated to square tubes it might make a very useful tool for home use..

If the ground is firm it’s hard to use! The talons need to be sharper for better penetration!

I used this to core aerate my entire yard. It works as it should. However, the tines do get clogged pretty easy. This is really hard work and the clogged tines make it even harder. The foam handle covers done last long either. I was expecting this but the paint wears off rather quickly too.
