Customer Reviews for Brinly-Hardy 40 in. Pull-Behind Spike Aerator with 3D Galvanized Stars for Lawn Tractors and Zero-Turn Mowers

40” spike aerators, luv it. Easy to assemble…………….

Overall we were happy with our purchase. It was easy to assemble and light enough for both me and my husband to move around. As you have to add weight to the top tray, it would be beneficial if the lip on the two longer sides continued around the shorter ends to prevent the weights from sliding off.

Have used it twice, first time with about 15lbs it did not cut into ground like I thought it should. Second time i put a thirty five pounds and a full 8 inch CC block and it cut deeper. Seems like it pulled fine and no bending of the side plates.

Good for ninja throwing stars, and maybe wind chimes but that’s all

Works great just have trouble sometimes keeping the brick on for wright

Just used for the first time last week. Assembly was NOT hard. Follow the instructions. WEAR GLOVES! The tines ARE VERY SHARP! Have to wait and see the results. It definitely helped break up the soil in the bare spots of my yard before I over seeded. Time will tell if it truly helps my yard. For the price, it was worth a shot! I'm sure that a core aerator would work better, but this left no mess at all. It just pokes holes!

used this unit last year on the airport grass runway, will purchase another and rig a dual hitch so I can cover 80 inches

Took a little while to assemble Once together it has done what I wanted it to do

Easy to assemble and works as advertised & expected

Works extremely well, I have about a acre and I was so impressed with this guy, planted seed the next day in three weeks my yard looked like a golf course…

Works fine and seems to do a good job on my lawn, but the instructions and pictures are very vague on the last half of the instructions. And I am very mechanical and do most of my home repairs and car repairs. But be careful if you have to backup, these jack knife very easy if your not good at backing up a trailer. Other than that I would recommend this to anyone.

it’s hard to notice under healthy grass compared to a plug style aerator. But it’s is definitely putting decent holes into the ground, plug style aerator works “better” but this works good enough for me.

I bought it two years ago and used for one season , worked fine, this seasons though it axle failed . It is 40 inch wide and with no axle support on the middle and it weakest part of this thing.

The Brinly, 40" star tooth spike aerator was a great help in my recent new lawn renovation. After plug aeration to break up the extremely hard compacted soil I then ran the Brinly 40" over the soil to breakup the soil providing a good seed bed. after seeding I ran the Brinly 40" again to cover the new seed working it into the seed bed as I didn't cover the seed with straw in one week I had seed germination and sprouting using Johnathan Green Black beauty seed, Thanks to the The Brinly, 40" star tooth spike aerator.

It was easy to Assemble. Directions were not super clear but easy to figure out. Worked great in the yard

I bought this earlier this month and was in dire need of an aerator to fix my yard. The grass was turning yellow and dying off. With this aerator i am beyond amazed at how well this helped my yard. I recommend investing in this product. Trustworthy brand and glad to have it in yard maintenance routine.

I bought this aerator for my September ‘23 reseeding of my lawn. It arrived quickly and was well packed. Assembly was easy due to clear directions and labeling.

Received my aerator. Easy to assemble, recommend wearing cut level gloves. Connected to my mower. Went slow and it did its job. I am pleased with the performance. I think however there could be some design modifications.

I have used it once and found it did a great job. Be very careful putting it together. Those blades are very sharp. By adding 2 cinder blocks for weight it really dug into the soil. I think that added weight might over time break that frame. I think it needs a little more reinforcement.

This aerator did an incredible job on my lawn. I never realized how important it is to aerate a lawn. It was easy to put together. I suggest gloves because these blades are really sharp. It's best to use it in the spring and again in the fall. The added weight of the cinder blocks really helps the blades dig in. I and very happy with this aerator. Easy to use, easy to store. Does a great job at a reasonable price. I highly recommend it.

Well let me tell you that I thought it did a great job. I did my yard and my neighbors.
