This is awsome. I bought a seperate cheap mower ans left this kit on for next year. Brought up about twice the grass of a normal cut, after i had already cut to the lowest mower deck setting.
Does The Job...Highly Recommend
December 21, 2016
Price was right and this item does the job! If you at all mechanically inclined, then the installation is easy enough and shouldn't be all that bad for those who aren't. Would recommend this to anyone, friends included!

October 4, 2016
Bought this to dethatch my lawn. Fit my 19 inch Murray mower with no problem. Just be mindful when mowing that you don't stay in one spot for too long because it will leave a circle in that spot. So when you go to turn the mower off make sure to keep moving and not just stop in one spot and turn it off.

July 13, 2015
Instructions were clear enough, though it would be nice if they specified which side of the blade goes down. It took a moment of three dimensional thinking to see how the spring fit correctly, and then ensure that it was pointed the right way.
It took all of 3 minutes to mount it up, and get to work. I have my grass very tall, and it's summer, so I didn't get to carried away with using it, I left it high, not touching the ground at all. It did pull thatch out of the brown spots, though, so we'll see how it does this fall when I trim the grass down and get ready for winter.
I have 2 mowers, the old one now has this blade on it, so I won't have to switch out at all.
Good product for good price
May 30, 2012
We purchased this as our lawn had not been dethatched in many years. It was a bit of a pain to put on, but other than than it worked like a charm. Yes we had a couple of bald spots, that would be because we did not realise how the ground rose under the grass. However it picked up a TON of grass. We did have to play with how high to put the blade, Once we fiugred it out it was fine. It is alot of work, and does not work with the bag. Even with a self propelled mower there was alot of moving of grass. We then put on our regular lawn mower blade and drover over the dethatched grass. I raked up the big piles but other than that our lawn mower picked up all of the dethatched grass. We had to empty the bag about every other turn but still much easier than all that raking.
Grass is recovering well and it is amazing how much dethatching this did.
Read several dethatching directions and play with what level to leave your mower. Do not stop between unless you kill the engine. WOrked like a charm. Not sure what the negative reviews are. Guess they did not read the directions.
Our tines did not break. We can tell they were used but no issues at all, except we will not wait 10 years again!

not the same as a power rake, but does the job, eventually, and is much cheaper.
Was easy to install
June 15, 2016
Works exactly as advertised. Was easy to install, and did a great job. I wish it were a couple inches wider though.
It worked.
September 21, 2015
It worked. My yard really needed some work. My yard looks a bit messy now because it really brought to the surface alot of dead grass. My suggestion is to cut your grass short and bag the clippings before you use this dethatching blade. You will be doing a good bit of raking of old dead thatch. It will leave bare spots on your lawn when done. Be prepared to loosen the dirt and plant grass seed.
Not an exact fit, but was very easy to correct that.
March 31, 2014
Something I have needed for years, This was the time to get it. Great price, came with several different washers so that it will fit almost every lawn mower. Works great de-thatching, will make re-seeding and fertilizing my yard a breeze. Best purchase I ever made.....
Max Power 33010016-inch universal rake/dethatcher lawn mower blade
May 17, 2011
If you want to cut off your grass all the way to the ground, remove the dead grass, rake, and reveal the soil, this blade is for you. My purpose is to overseed my lawn, so I needed this blade to remove my old grass and reveal the ground. This blade will take everything off, from grass to weeds and dethatch as well. If you just want to use it just to rake a dead grass leaving your grass look good this blade is NOT will not work for you.

The prouct is good but I was expecting more,but not the blade,it is as promised,I wanted something that would chew up the lawn a little more.
Should work great, if it fits your mower
March 28, 2017
This may work ok if it will mount to your mower. I have a Honda Masters series and the 2 mounting holes are not big enough for the bolts. I'm not sure if the Masters is different than the consumer, Harmony series.

As far as the blade and spring/dethachers, it appears it would work great as long as it's set at the right height. Based on some reviews, some are trying to cut into the soil. I have both Tiff 419 and St Augustine and I can see it working fine in either, adjusted correctly. Don't expect it to hand pick everything you don't want on the ground, but it gets a lot more dead material than you can with a plain blade.

3 stars because the quality is there and after using another blade to do what this one was supposed to, I can definitely see where this one could be more efficient, again,at the right height, and not expecting one pass perfection. Knocking 2 stars off because it is not as described as far as application. I might could have made it work if I took a chance and damaged the 2 bolts, but I change blades configurations often and don't want bunged up bolts.
Not for star shaped Husqvarna
April 13, 2016
Didn't work with a star shaped Husqvarna, thought I could make it work and gronk down, don't do that, I then thought I screwed up my whole lawn mower since it was stuck on there. It worked for about half the yard, did its job for that half, but then didn't move with the motor, the issue was the middle hole, the Husqvarna has a star shaped middle. Happy that it only cost me a little to try it, had that scare about ruining the lawn mower though.
Plastic ones suck

Incompatible with Greenworks electric mower.
July 5, 2017
I could not get this to fit my Greenworks electric mower. In fact, the instructions recommend that you don't use it with any electric mower, although it then concedes that you can go ahead and try if you want. I don't know what the downside is to running it on an electric.

Two stars because even though I couldn't get it to fit, it otherwise appears to be well made.

June 28, 2017
As many have mentioned, I had to enlarge the slots in this blade to fit my mower. More importantly the times weren't long enough to reach the thatch layer. I washered the blade down and lowered the mower to its lowest setting and still all it would do was chop the tops from the existing grass, never got to the thatch. This is just $12 worth of landfill for me...
This was a Honda mower, fwiw.
"Don't waste your time
April 13, 2017
This was an old review from 2014 but it rang true for me:

"Don't waste your time. All it did was strip all the grass down to the dirt. Started at the highest setting and worked the level down until it just made contact with the grass, the next setting shredded the grass, but didn't touch the thatch. The next setting ripped the grass and the thatch from the ground."

It did a better job of cutting my grass off than bringing the thatch up.

Here's a few reasons as to why it was unsuccessful and did damage:

1. At a high setting it didn't shred my grass, it also didn't touch the thatch
2. My grass wasn't wet, but it wasn't bone dry. I think bone dry might be best.
3. We just purchased the house and the lawn is complete garbage to start with.. thin grass, lots of creeping Charlie, & moss... it's not thick grass. I think if it were thick and healthy we might've had luck.
4. I hand rakes my small front and took up 6 garbage bags of thatch. I know the thatch in the lawn is super thick and compressed... it hasn't been dethatched in probably 20+ years.... because it's compressed and thick this tool didn't work.

If you're feeling out of luck get a manual dethatching rake. Picked mine up at the thrift store for a couple bucks.

After dethatching, aerating, and overseeding I'm going to give it a year to grow. I'll try this tool out next year and see if they're any changes... it did fit my 21" Murray mower just fine.

A lot of reviews are super positive... making it hard to believe my experience was so horrendous!
Dethatch blade
April 28, 2016
Doesn't work on my mowers, the spring doesn't touch the ground, even at the lowest possible settings.
Didn't dethatch, damaged lawn
May 26, 2012
I was hoping this would work but it didn't. I set the deck high to start and tried it. I lowered it and tried again until it touched the grass. It pulled up more live grass than thatch. It actually didn't pull up very much thatch. It ended up shredding the existing blades, leaving ragged, damaged ends. Luckily I only did a small area but I'm worry that it may have damaged it.

It also says it is recommended for gas mowers. I have an electric mower. It says you can use it as long as you keep a constant speed, which I did.

Horrible
June 18, 2017
You have to put it together yourself and the instructions suck and it's impossible and mine broke just trying to install it. What a waste of money.
Parts missing and bad directions
June 6, 2017
This product gets one star. WhenI opened the package, all parts were there except the two bolts needed to attach the springs to the blade. And the directions aren't directions at all, they are terrible. NOT universal!
DO NOT PURCHASE FROM ISE FOREST GARDEN
May 12, 2017
This is supposed to be a UNIVERSAL blade,, The spindle hole is WAY to small to even fit a Toro 22" walk behind mower. Missing parts, Doesn't FIT, Crap customer service. This is a purchasing NIGHTMARE.
Does not work on my Snapper mower
April 12, 2015
A real piece of junk. They give you a hand full of adapters, not one worked on my Snapper mower. If your mower has a couple of dimples to help hold the blade in place, do not get this. It just spins and wears down the dimples. Would not recommend this to anyone I wanted to keep as a friend.
Doesn't work as stated.
June 20, 2014
Don't waste your time. All it did was strip all the grass down to the dirt. Started at the highest setting and worked the level down until it just made contact with the grass, the next setting shredded the grass, but didn't touch the thatch. The next setting ripped the grass and the thatch from the ground.
