About this product

Dethatching is an essential part of healthy grass growth: It removes dead plant material that builds up in your lawn, so nutrients and moisture can better penetrate the soil. Rather than manually removing this material with a rake, the Worx NITRO 40V 14” Cordless Dethatcher makes the process a breeze. Serving as a 2-in-1 dethatcher/scarifier, this cordless equipment removes deep layers of thatch at up to 3400 RPM as you guide it over your lawn. Equipped with a high-efficiency brushless motor, it runs 50% longer, delivers 25% more power, and offers a 10X longer life than electric dethatchers that use conventional brushed motors. The Worx NITRO Cordless Dethatcher features tool-less conversion to easily switch between modes. Use the tine reel for standard dethatching to remove thin layers of thatch. Switch to the scarifier reel when you need to cut deeper and remove thicker thatch layers. Once the appropriate reel is in place, changing the depth of the tines is just as simple as adjusting a simple lever on the dethatcher. Choose from one of 4 depth positions to reach the thatch layer in the lawn. Getting started is a breeze; the dethatcher starts hassle-free by simultaneously engaging the push button and bail handle. As part of the Power Share platform, it uses the same batteries as every other tool, outdoor power and lifestyle product in that family. Operating the dethatcher is also comfortable, thanks to the fully wrapped padded grip that helps minimize fatigue during use. The cordless power dethatcher is equipped with a collection bag that holds up to 1.1 bushels of thatch, which helps minimize the cleanup you’ll have to do once the job is done. When it’s time to pack it up, the dethatcher handle folds down to help save on storage space.

    Great dethatcher

    Great and easy to use. Much better than my electrical dethatcher with a cord. Just don't set it too low at first or it will hit roots! Battery life is good, but bag was small, so I just took it off and blew the thatch in a pile and bagged it.
