Sun Joe Cordless Scarifier & Dethatcher w/ 5 Depth Positions, 24V-X2-DTS15

Best money I spent. Great product ans well worth it. Only detaching right now. Used it like 10 times and works great. Cord is easy to manage if you take your time. I just can’t believe how much thatch I had.

Compared to the competition, Sun Joe is as good as it gets; but there is lots of room for improvement. It does a great job thatching. I attached the bag, but it does not stay attached, so it is worthless. I had to use my lawn mower to suck up the thatch. The batteries lose power in less than 20 minutes; and take a long time to charge. Why such small batteries? My electric lawn mower uses one 80V battery and it lasts about 2 hours.

Got this in a few days ago, did not use it right away due to cold weather. Packaging was very bad, box was torn. Nothing seems to be missing however. Assembly was easy. Used it for the first time today, Feb. 11, 2022. It did a very good job for about 10 minutes, then it died and would not restart. I had done a full charge on the batteries. The batteries show about a 2/3 charge remaining. When it died there was a smell as of a burned electrical motor. Currently recharging the battery and letting the motor cool. Will then try it again, it it does not work I will try to return. Disappointed. Feb. 12, 2022. It works, tried it indoors as it's too cold to use outside. So not a full test. I don't think I did anything that could be considered outside of normal use yesterday. Will see what happens on a warmer day. Still disappointed overall, I'm planning to keep it at this time as I really wanted a dethatcher.

Living in the North West we have a lot of moss that takes over the yards. I bought this battery operated Sun Joe because of a video on thatching your yard and it looked perfect for my job. With a second set of batteries I do a small section of my yards at a time. The installing of the handle into the machine I had to cut 3/8” off of each post so the screw would enter the host to hold. I like the light weight and easy change of the thatcher head to the scratifier head. I don’t like that the switch only works if you hold just above the safety lock. If you move your hand away from this point it will shut off. Also the batteries get warm to the point the machine will shut down until cool. Then work just fine again.

Good lasting power from the two batteries. Great ability to rip thatch from lawn. Fun to use. Throw away the little catch basket 🧺, it's useless. Follow up with a real mower that can vacuum up all the pounds of thatch. Lawns came out great.. I should have purchased this year's ago. All the neighbors now want to borrow it. It for residential use....don't use it commercially...it is still cheap plastic...but the motor and blades are strong metal.

This really does the job. It pulled out so much thatch from our yard, it was impressive. It was easy for me to push despite the handle being high up for me. (I’m 5’2”).My hand did get tired holding the bar “on” to keep it running. I wish there were a locking mechanism for that. The problem we had was that it would keep stopping. At first we thought the battery had run out, but we hadn’t been running it too long, then we realized our Bermuda grass that seems to be trying to take over our yard, was getting wrapped around the tines and wheels. After watching videos about dethatching with this particular one, we were very interested. It works great,just not if you have a rhizome type grass. We will be retuning this one and just have a to rent a larger machine.

Good just Thank you Amazon

This product worked well on my small bermuda grass lawn. The bagger attachment did not work well so I did not use it so be prepared to do some raking. I raked the large thatch then cleaned up with my mower using its bagger and that seemed to work well.

Fonctionne très bien

This was easy to use and quiet, though it is louder than the mower. Changing between the blades and the Dethatcher though, has proven to be a bit of a pain. Requires screw and compartment detachment component removal and replacement . Screws require a ratchet. It is not as easy as it seems. Nor will the description or details tell you about this. The machine works amazingly though! Aside from the difficulty in changing the components, this is a very worthwhile machine to have!

First, the dethatcher came look like an open box, the order is for a brand new item. When I first to try it, just found out that the collection bag came with the package did not fit the dethachter (see pictures), it kept falling off the machine. Secondly, when I try to change the scarifier roll, I discovered one size of the machine near the wheel was broken (picture). I contacted Amazon for refund/exchange (received about 10 days ago), they ask me first contact the manufacturer for under warranty claim before asking for refund hassle. I do not understand the logic. I have contact the manufacturer and waiting for reply, almost 48 hrs passed by still have not heard anything. I am very disappointed the Amazon and SunJoe support.

The bag is the wrong one and only half of the charger works
