I’ve been looking one too…
Probably going to go for something like this …



Will take a while for my largish garden and be a pain to pick it all up but a decent price.
Going by the reviews and punters photos it can definately do the job

I had one of those but with a nylon brush in it for doing the artificial grass. Was a really good job but noisy enough to need to eat buds when using it.

I’m fairly sure I’ve a Bosch/Qualcast lawnrake hiding at my parents in Bangor. Will have a hoak and send pics if that’s any use @andy9eleven

Try one of the two guys above @rupertfinch ^
I've a herd of 4 legged things these days eating grass and creating mud so no need. Was just commenting that those wee Hyundai jobbies seem good.

For info ….
Picked this up earlier from Screwfix - £69 with good reviews and it’s actually a great wee machine - take the bag off and hook up the flap it and it does a super job on either the rake or blades …

15 bags and that was also already after a good cut.
Also that wa son one of the highest settings …
Will need another go on a low setting to really get rid of everything as my garden was full of moss

@Snoopcousins good work, i expect mine to be something similar. Going to give it another few weeks, not seeing much / any growth yet!

What scarofier dks you end up using ?
My garden was a mess and tbh it could do with another full scarify with a hired machine - but from what it was this wee machine is great and is pretty quick

Debating buying a scarifier or going halves with a mate renting one for a weekend and helping each other do each other’s gardens.

Depends what size garden?
My back is about 220 sqm and that wee E one worked rightly - but it’s only £35 to rent a proper one from Cyril Johnstons- and would fit in your car

i bought one in lidl last year or the year before it came with metal and nylon brushes, it was cheap and does the job ask in lidl are they getting them in, I think it was 40 or 50 quid though I left the back of the last time and lifted the moss with the mower and it worked better.
