This medium-duty lawn aerator has four prongs to improve drainage and remove impacted soil and grass with minimum soil adhesion. Constructed from high-quality tubular steel with a black powder-coated finish for corrosion protection. It has a T-shaped handle with durable soft foam grips for comfort during use. The shaft is a good height, reducing the need for bending and reducing back strain. The footplate enables extra-pressure to be applied as needed. Not for use in hard compacted stoney ground, the aerator should be able to be easily removed from the ground without undue strain or rocking/bending motion.
