Varomorus Stainless Steel Lawn Coring Aerator Grass Dethatching Turf Plug Core Aeration Heavy Duty Tool

I have hard clay and have been trying to find a way to work in compost without tilling up the lawn. This works great at aerating the lawn and allowing compost to work its way down into the clay.

I absolutely love using this core aerator and really like that it’s stainless steel. The soil I have in this area is a very dense clay and silt mix that sticks to everything. I’ve had multiple other brands that end up getting so clogged That I have to use a drill to remove the plugs stuck inside the tines if the moisture isn’t perfect which ultimately them to be thrown out. I have a soil sampler probe from the same brand that works great that has yet to get a plug stuck, so far I haven’t been disappointed with this aerator.

Sturdy. Good welds. Works in clay dirt with a bit of water. If you’re over 6’0 this is going to hurt your back. As it was asked in the movie Zoolander, “what is this a tool for ants?!”

Bought this a while ago and just got around to using it. Sadly, it doesn’t work as I hoped, one side seems to repeatedly clog and you have to clean out the core with a screwdriver and then plug again. Not ideal at all even if you’re just looking to aerate a small area.

I had a different one before that was horrible. This one is easy to use, still need to use some muscle, but the material and design are good.
