Customer Reviews for Brinly-Hardy 42 in. Sleeve Hitch Tow-Behind Rear Blade

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product last year and it is just what I have been looking for a long time. I have a long gravel road and this blade works wonders. No more using a shovel and rake,what a back saver.

I haven't found any good way to use/ with my side by side since there is no way to add weight to the blade. It just floats over dirt and gravel without really doing anything.

This fit perfectly to my sleeve hitch device on my Cub Cadet XT1 (small lawn tractor). The adjustments work great, with the ability to push going backwards, and drag pull going forwards. The plow is made of very heavy metals, and should outlive my lawn tractor. I use it on my lawn tractor as the slush mover when our New England snows turn mushy. Of course its limited by the weight of the tractor, but if you move reasonable amounts, then you will be very satisfied.

Hard to find this piece of equipment, have the Brinly Universal ATV/UTV one-point lift to attach it to my Gator. Easy to assemble both.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this blade approximately 10 months ago. Worked well with snow and light dirt work. I added rear adjustable skid shoes for snow removal on stone drive-way. The channel that runs from sleeve hitch to blade is a bit light duty, but blade was exactly as anticipated and wrks fine for my purposes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality build and American made. Works as advertised.

I moved 42 ton of stone create. It was easy to put together and attached to my old sears craftsman garden tractor. No problems or issues. I took it slow since it was a pretty big job. Worked just great. I will have plenty of other uses for it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] American made from heavy gauge steel at an affordable price.

perfect for my needs

Works well, but did not fit the way the instructions stated.

Was really shocked at how easy and smooth the assembly went. Made from quality material and works well.

I am pleased with rear blade as this time. Was easy to assemble and connected to Case/Ingersoll sleeve hitch with no problem. I did add skid shoes for snow removal on stone driveway. Have not used it yet. I do wish it had a weight box for grading dirt.

I bought this a few weeks ago and have backbladed the driveway with it. Works well for scraping and rolling gravel behind a lawn tractor. Ok for cutting sod away from edge of roadway. Could maybe use a little more weight in the blade, but overall great product for what it is and designed for. Easy to put together and attaches to sleeve hitch perfectly.

Works great. Cleaned up both my stone driveways!

This is very well built and great quality!!!!!!!!!

It was suppose to fit my husbana mower but it didn't

Using this rear blade to clean the snow away from my garage door. Just back the tractor up and drop the blade at the bottom of the door. Then pull forward, dragging the snow about 15 feet away from the door. Next I back up again, over the snow I moved with the blade. Drop my front large blade, that has hydraulics, and push the snow on down the drive. No more using the front blade to back drag and all the turning around that goes with doing this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the rear blade in mid summer. I intend to use for snow removal. The blade is good quality,thick gauge steel. My only complaint is that the holes to attach the hitch to the drawbar didn’t line up. I could only get 2 bolts in the hitch and drawbar. I had to buy a step drill bit to ream out the holes. This was annoying and of course I had the expense of the step bit . No matter how I tried to get the holes to line up I couldn’t.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have washed 3/4 gravel and driveway 1400 ft long and due to the ups and fed ex trucks my gravel wash pushed to the sides and middle pretty bad, and potholes everywhere! I thought once to buy some more expensive gravel but glad I didn’t! For a fraction of the cost I bought the Brinkley blade and got my drive in good shape again!. There is great instruction and video that will help you be successful to do the job! It’s also fun and prideful to do!

Just what I ordered. package very good , very pleased

Missing all key nuts bolts for installation of blade and hitch bolts

You need to add that it takes a $300 adapter to put it on your mower and home depot does not supply the adapter

To easy to be picked up when blading.... The downward weight to it isn't enough... Other than that very good product..

this blade is well built, and has worked very well for me.

Due to the Craftsman peoples sending a sleeve hitch that I couldn't use I had to return the blade that Ibought from Home Depot. My lawns tractor was not the right machine for a blade anyway. Sorry for what the Craftsman people caused.
