Customer Reviews for VEVOR Tow Behind Plug Aerator, 40 in Lawn Core Aerator Tool Universal Hitch, 120lbs Weight Capacity, Heavy Duty & Rust-Resistant, Pull Behind Spike Aerators with Tray for Farmland & Garden Tractors

This unit is well built, and easy to assemble. I used it with 120 lbs of weight and it did a great job.

I’ve used it on 3 acres so far and it has worked very well. Would recommend

Although I haven’t had the chance to fully use the aerator yet, my initial review focuses on the build quality. The steel construction feels solid, and the powder-coated finish gives it a durable, long-lasting feel. Right out of the box, this aerator seems very sturdy. Excited to use!

Putting this together was a challenge but I wasn’t going to let any Chinese engineer beat me. I finally claimed VICTORY! Instruction were a little flaky. Pictures are worth a thousand words. Did what it’s supposed to do, made holes in the ground.

Works like it should. I used 4 concrete blocks on top and it leaves behind nice holes without a lot of the plug mess (no lil dog t*rds everywhere). I seeded yard after areatoring and it definitely looks like it is helping with germination of the grass seed, the holes have nice patches of grass starting to grow. Wished I had gone over the bare areas more times now. One star off as the lift arm is not raising the tines up high enough. I need to temporarily attach the hitch completely down below the hitch plate to take it across driveway. I verified that it was put together correctly and do no see another way to assemble it, may be something I am not doing right but I don't want to make hitch adjustments making the holes shallower. As an areator it works great and seems to be well built.

- Shipping was very fast after purchase - Assembly took about an hour. Kind of difficult, but not too bad. - I used 4 x 30 lbs cinder block weights and that seemed to be the right weight - easy to pull, and does a nice job - one possible improvement might be a tab or lip for tying down weights Overall 4-5 stars. This aerator easily 10x its value in our small lawn care business. YouTube short of using the aerator: https://youtube.com/shorts/VkSn2P_yoSQ?si=Sw7nN4yubUifRJvl

0nly used once added 8o pound to tray and it went in a good depth a good machine for a large lawn

Well built and sturdy. Actually removes plugs of soild and not just compresses the soil. Instructions we mediocre.

Hard equipment to assemble but stays good product for the price

Works great, assembly is something else. I’m fairly handy and had to take it apart and put it together several times. The instructions aren’t greats VEVOR needs to do a better job on the instructions and or provide videos. The bracket assembly for the axel was backwards in the instructions where the piece for the handle does not line up. If you reverse it, it’ll work fine, if you follow the instructions one side of the axel doesn’t line up for the wheel to fit. Also use a ratchet and a better screwdriver (the one it ships with is too small) it’ll save you a lot of time.
