Dislodge hard-packed dirt for enhanced irrigation and pliability with this effective plug aerator from Illinois-based Agri-Fab. Ideal for use with compact soil, clay, drought-damaged plots, and surfaces prone to heavy traffic like a soccer field, the aerator extracts plugs of dirt from the earth in 40-inch wide swathes. By pulling out these small plugs, water and oxygen gain more immediate access to plant roots and soil and creates a healthier environment for growing without disease and pest dilemmas. The disposed plugs can be broken up and added to compose for later use. A tractor tows the aerator, allowing users to cover large spans of land in little time.

The plug aerator cores with twenty-four heavy gauge galvanized points, heat-treated for greater durability. Six rustproof spools hold the points, with four points on each spool. The points reach 3 inches into the earth, removing 3/4-inch diameter plugs. Spools are affixed to a heavy-duty, 48-inch wide steel tray. Users engage the aerator with an upright lever on top of the tray. The long lever is easily accessible from the tractor seat. Two 10-by-4-inch pneumatic wheels transport the aerator most any terrain. A hitch pin accompanies the aerator for easy tractor hook-up. For the best results, aerate in the spring and late fall. The aerator was manufactured in the USA. A limited one-year warranty may be available for this item. Upon shipping, the aerator measures 42 by 13 by 10-1/2 inches and weighs 81 pounds. --Jessica Reuling ... Read more

Does more than they claim!
This little wonder has been the envy of my neighborhood when it comes to landscaping tools. They claim it is good for mixing peat moss with soil but they fail to mention how it works with sod. I have found that this tool, with a minor amount of muscle, can transform a patch of lawn into a flower bed in no time! Pushing the cutter just under the soil surface will leave a nice strip of sod that can easily be rolled up transplanted or mulched. The tool also works great for preparing the garden for planting by tilling the soil without "moving" it down the garden. ... Read more

Nice cores for small trouble areas
Hound Dog products I've used seem to be great.I have the flat faced shovel and the weed hound in addition to the core aerator.Making plugs is nice and easy.The limiting factor is how hard or rocky your soil is.It is best to do the coring when the soil is moist, otherwise the effort goes up.

The 2-core aerator can easily do trouble spots and also small areas that commercial plug aerators cannot access.It seems to be well made and works very well. ... Read more
