Greenworks40V Scarifier Lawn Rake Dethatcher, 3600rpm, 36cm Working Width, 30L Collection Box WITHOUT Battery & Charger , 3 Year Guarantee G40DT35

With the instructions for this it was so easy to use and setup and works very well.

this is the basic model so no depth adjustment. The collecting box is poorly made with no instructions as to putting it together, although seemingly simple the lengths of the mesh are out so a lot of stretching needed to get it on the frame. Having gone to all that effort it collects nothing!!! It just tips every now and then and leaves a great mass of thatched grass etc. I used the lawn mower to pick up the remainder of the ploughed field. Heavy on battery usage but maybe because it was the first dethatching.Sadly the handle does not double fold as do their mowers. Poor omission re storage.Yes it did the job but quality of product not up to Greenworks usual standard. Had this been my first Green Works purchase it would have been returned. I gave three stars because it did the job!Sorry Green works but the next model up may be better but this one is a miss.

Bought in Feb, 2021 & used today for the third time. Thought I’d give it some time before reviewing.Much of the criticism seen in other reviews are correct: my two biggest woes, as repeatedly reviewed, a) the battery life is appalling, really appalling - 15 minutes at best. I have a smallish garden but it will still take two days to complete.b) the “collection bag” is a misnomer. It just doesn’t catch anything, honestly, it couldn’t catch a cold, so be ready for a lot of manual raking. I contacted Greenworks in case I was missing something & got no where.It does have a cumbersome bizarre height adjustment, but there are no instructions on this. The review elsewhere on this was the only way I knew about it.All in all, I wouldn’t buy again and wouldn’t recommend it. You’d be better using your money to pay a professional to come and do it twice a year. So disappointing.

Scarrifiers have very hard life from the start, mine lasted six months very few uses I contacted Greenworks for warranty replacement and guess what its not covered ! well it was worth the try, the spring tines take a heavy toll so it is very hard to know how long they will last anyway machine useless without it so I purchased this one. it arrived in very quick time fitted perfectly and has lasted up to this post so I hope it will keep going and anyway can always get another if not.

It took me 3 months to use this item only for it to keep cutting out, only worked when grass box not installed. Grass box was a nightmare to assemble still not sure if it's correct. Should have sent back and used a manual rake.

Battery is powerful enough to propel the dethatcher as well as scarifying and gives about an hour of usage. Does a great job and is light and easy to use. One issue is the 3 thick books of instructions etc yet the assembly drawing is one piece of scrappy paper.

Managed to follow guide to assemble machine.Pleased with the result and the machine is efficient at removing moss from the lawn.I don’t use the basket to collect ,instead use my lawnmower as it has a larger basket.

Good machine let down by a short battery life, only lasts 20 mins but charges to full strength in a few hours. Worth considering if you have a medium or larger lawn. Battery doesn’t fit smaller green works tools.Wheel hight is adjustable but it’s not obvious when you are looking at the machine and is not clear in the instructions. there’s a few YouTube videos showing how to adjust the height and it’s very easy once you know how.
