  • Get Ready for a Workout
Style: ARL003
Unit seems sturdy and well built. You have to assemble it, That is pretty simple. I used my metric sockets instead of the small wrenches they give you. First use, I realized right away what people meant when they said it was a short handle. You do have to lean over quite a bit. I’m unsure if I needed to put as much pressure as I did or not, but I did put pressure down, making sure it broke through our sod fabric. I wish they would have put a tea handle at the top instead of a straight stick handle. It would have been much easier to put pressure down with two hands at the top rather than one hand at the top and the other hand halfway down. Time will tell if it’s doing its job as I did this first go round the day after our lawn being treated and the morning before our first rain. ... show more

  • Easy to use
Style: ARL003
After the assembly and a couple of bandaids later (the spines are sharp) it works much better than I expected in the hard soil we have. Putting it together was fairly easy just need to pay attention so you don't scrape your hands over the spines as they will bite you!

  • Does a decent job for the price?
Style: ARL003
I’ll start by saying I wasn’t expecting a whole lot based on the price, but I was fairly surprised. As others have mentioned, you have to add some weight into the end caps for this to actually stick into the ground. As long as your ground isn’t rock hard, you shouldn’t have any problems with the spikes, penetrating the ground. The size is what it is, but you need to know that before ordering. If you have a large yard, you’re going to want something that has more length to it, but if your yard is on the smaller side or in a city, this should work just fine. It seems built well and like it will hold up if taken care of, which is a bit rare today. The only other downside I can think of is that each spike needed individual individually screwed into the barrel which takes a little bit of time but cuts down on shipping cost and overall cost. ... show more

  • Rust, and more rust.
Style: ARL003
Product description claims "Built with a rustproof, powder-coated metal frame" Sure about that? It arrived PRE-RUSTED. ---- Chapter 2: so I returned it (they wouldn't replace), ordered another (now 8% more expensive than last week), and it just *also* arrived PRE-RUSTED.
