  "description_short": "A manual dethatching rake with 19 curved carbon steel tines, an adjustable head angle and a four-section handle you set to your height.",
  "description": "Thatch is the brown, spongy layer that builds up between the soil and the green grass. A little is normal. More than half an inch of it blocks water, air and feed from reaching the roots, and the lawn thins out no matter how much you feed it. A dethatching rake pulls that layer out. Specifications 19 curved, double-sided tines Carbon steel head, heat-treated and powder-coated to resist rust Stainless steel handle in four sections, set to your height Adjustable head angle Comes apart for transport and storage How to use it Check the lawn. Push a finger into the turf. A spongy brown layer more than half an inch thick means it is time. Pick the season. Dethatch when the grass is growing strongly, so it recovers fast. Spring or early autumn suits most US lawns. Water the day before if the ground is dry, so the tines get in. Build the handle to a comfortable height and set the head angle. With the thatch side of the head down, pull the rake towards you in short, firm strokes. Work the lawn in sections. Rake up the loosened thatch and compost it. Flip the head to the soil side to loosen the surface before you overseed or feed. What to expect The lawn looks rough for a week or two after dethatching. That is normal. Some live grass comes out with the dead, and what is left gets the water and air it has been missing. Feed and water afterwards and it comes back thicker. Where it works Any lawn you can walk on. It also clears leaves, twigs and debris, loosens soil for seeding, and works compost or fertiliser into the surface. Is it right for the job? It is a manual rake, so a big lawn is a workout. Do it in sections across a few days. If your problem is the edge rather than the lawn, see the half moon edger or the wheel edger instead. Looking after it Knock the grass off the tines, wipe the head, and store it dry. Check the handle sections are locked before each use. Take the handle apart if space is tight.
