Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bond 9215 Green Giant Spiked Aerator Shoes
Customer Review: Not good. Needs a better design.
Summary: 1 Stars
I weigh 210 and I guess I am too heavy for these because when I stepped on the soil and sunk in it brought up the soil on my lift. This caused divots. Also one of the plastic fasteners cracked.
I found a better way to airate the lawn. I used the weed hound and it left nice holes where the weed was. I hit those holes with the hose and I know water is getting down there.
Customer Review: the broken shoe strap!
Summary: 1 Stars
the same day I tried themthey broke @ the strap & they are hard to keep on your feet when walking on your lawn, i would buy these again if they were to make them more comfortable & extra durable!Customer Review: takes some practice and patience
Summary: 3 Stars
These seem like a good idea, but the spikes are so long that it's hard to walk. You have to pull straight up with your foot, to avoid ripping out pieces of sod. If the ground is a little wet, these get caked up with mud pretty quickly.
That said, I use these instead of buying a larger tool, and find that with a little practice, they work fairly well.
Customer Review: Troubled straps.
Summary: 3 Stars
In order to use these shoes effectively they have to be on really tight, especially at the heel. Otherwise, they come loose and flop around or your feet come out of the straps. The buckles on the straps are very weak. After tightening the straps to get a solid fit, the buckles broke. Because I didn't want to go through the trouble of shipping this product back, I modified the straps to stay in place. After walking around the yard many times over a period of a couple of weeks with the shoes on, the grass seems to be responding to the loosening of the soil. The shoes even broke up some of the thatch. Overall, I believe that if this product had more durable buckles on the straps it would be a good buy.Customer Review: Hard to walk. Straps bust easily.
Summary: 2 Stars
You need big solid shoes or these won't work. If you tighten the straps too much, which you have to do to stop them from coming off, they will break. If you have thin grass, the dirt will stick to your aerotor shoes; tearing up your lawn.
