A well designed and engineered product

10 days ago
I just finished assembling my Agri-Fab 48"plug aerator with the help of a great Agri-Fab online video that clearly shows every step of the process. It takes a little time but I did it myself with the exception of about 10 minutes of help from my wife bracing while I did the final tightening. I am definitely not skilled or experienced in such work It was packaged well with all parts included and clearly marked. The assembled product is sturdy and reflects quality in its design and engineering. This was a good purchase experience in all respects,

Great Aerator

a month ago
Purchased this a month or so ago to plug aerate my two acre lawn. I have rented a walk behind machine in the past. This saved me so much time AND did as good or better job. No dealing with crazy heavy equipment to load/unload and no longer an all day project. It does come fully disassembled--so you will spend some time putting together, but I knew this and the instructions were clear.

Assembled, trial run successful

5 months ago
I purchased this 48" plugger/aerator from a retailer; it was discounted because a previous purchaser had returned the box of parts. I assembled the machine, took it for a slow test pass over slightly rain-moistened soil, the machine performed quite well. We're on four acres of turfgrass, I'm anxious to see how well the machine performs in the future. **One word of advice: having used a smaller Agri-Fab plugger in the past, this machine is NOT designed to tolerate reverse movement with the core knives down as it will strain the towing tongue to the point that the tongue may break, which is likely not covered by the machine's warranty. I would advise the manufacturer to clearly state this in the owner's manual, and perhaps state it somewhere on the device itself.
