A well designed and engineered product

I just finished assembling my Agri-Fab 48"plug aerator with the help of a great Agri-Fab online video that clearly shows every step of the process. It takes a little time but I did it myself with the exception of about 10 minutes of help from my wife bracing while I did the final tightening. I am definitely not skilled or experienced in such work It was packaged well with all parts included and clearly marked. The assembled product is sturdy and reflects quality in its design and engineering. This was a good purchase experience in all respects,

It works, assembly was fine, tines need protection

It was a bit of assembly, but pretty straightforward. I would recommend putting duct tape on the tips of the tines before starting so you don't have cut up hands and arms like I had. It would be nice if they came from the factory with some kind of rubber dip on the tips. The aerator works. I only used it once, and I'll be interested in seeing if the dried plugs that stayed in the tines come out without pressure washing.

Great Aerator

Purchased this a month or so ago to plug aerate my two acre lawn. I have rented a walk behind machine in the past. This saved me so much time AND did as good or better job. No dealing with crazy heavy equipment to load/unload and no longer an all day project. It does come fully disassembled--so you will spend some time putting together, but I knew this and the instructions were clear.
