Darlac Lawn Scarifier Telescopic

When installing the blades and telescopic connector, especially when misaligning the last screw hole, considerable force is required to align it and insert it. However, the result is excellent, and my hands no longer feel sore. I wish I had known about this tool sooner!

First up - a little assembly required - the handle is in two parts and needs a screw to hold it together (supplied) I actually screwed a second in for extra sturdiness which seemed to work well The most important thing to note is that it’s hard work scarifying a garden! It’s hard manual work however the rake was the perfect tool. Took up all the dead grass and didn’t damage the soil or living grass I found it best to use a sort of sweeping motion rolling back and forth. I also did it twice - the second time at 90 degrees to the first and was surprised at how much more dead grass and roots came up still Whilst my garden was probably a little too big for manual scarifying i did it in chunks and considered it a workout! This being said, the health of the grass and garden after using this is significantly better and I’m pleased with the result A good product, sturdy, perfect for the job and recommended.....unless you have a large garden then hire a mechanised one or get a professional in! Hope you found this useful

Did a good job of removing thatch and breaking up soil prior to reseeding my lawn. Very handy for small lawns (less than 20m2 I would day as it is quite hard work at times) so was perfect for the are I was recultivating. Lightweight and feels of sturdy construction.

Too much like hard work- wish I’d bought an electric one

This was perfect for scarifying a small lawn but really hard work physically ! Although I would not hesitate to recommend it if you have a strong core and significant arm strength. I have however decided to purchase a cordless scarifier for my side lawn and front lawn as they are much bigger and couldn’t face doing it manually ( still aching!) and looking forward to the battery driven one arriving and doing all the hard work for me.

This tool does the job, but it is hard on the shoulders compared with a mechanical scarifier. Perhaps best to treat the lawn with Sulphate of Iron mixed with water to kill the moss before trying to remove it. But for a small lawn this tool is perfect. And it gets you fit at the same time!

Very useful

Like another reviewer, I'm pleased that I ignored the negative reviews from people who assumed they were buying a tool that makes scarifying an effortless task. Also I'm pleased that it requires a bit/lot of energy as I still want the exercise. This is a well-designed, simple but high quality tool that makes the effort far more productive - and, thus, pleasurable. I have a number of Darlac tools and all are of very high quality. Overall this specimen represents excellent value.

bon produit pour petites surfaces . Un léger affutage des lames facilite le travail . prévoir de renforcer la fixation du manche .

Easy to use does exactly what you need to get rid of dead under grass (thatch).

Sicuramente fa il suo dovere. Rimuove abbastanza feltro in superficie. Le ruote aiutano in quanto agevolano il lavoro. Va bene per spazi piccoli. Per grandi prati consiglio una macchina perché la maggior parte del lavoro dovrete farlo voi. Manico estendibile e comodo ma troppo corto.

Antes de nada, decir que no había utilizado antes un escarificador: es fácil de usar (hay que atornillar una pieza y no tiene misterio). Sin embargo, me resulto duro ya que hay que rastrillar el cesped viejo, haciendo algo de fuerza (dude si se rompería, pero no me ha dado problemas en ese sentido). Recoge la hierba muerta/seca sin dañar la viva o el suelo y creo que el resultado es bueno. Supongo que las siguientes veces será mas fácil, pero en estos casos, agradezco tener un jardin pequeño.

El producto está muy bien , escarifica perfectamente, pero la sujeción con el palo, desde mi punto de vista debería ser de metal o algún material semejante, y no de plástico, ya que se puede romper con facilidad al hacer presión.solo viene un tornillo de unión , yo le puse otro para .ejor sujeción.
