Increase the water, oxygen, and nutrient movement in your soil, ultimately improving the health of your lawn by using the Rittenhouse Two-Prong Coring Lawn Aerator. This two-pronged coring aerator is made with strong welded-steel construction. The 38" overall length of the lawn aerator is the perfect size that it enables you to work standing straight without having to kneel or bend down. Stepping down on the large foot platform and driving the T-handle downward will make the sharp steel tubes penetrate the soil quite easily, even in tough soil. The platform allows you to maximize force using your body weight. The padded T-handle provides you with maximum control and comfortable use.

Mine broke, too.
This lawn aerator works very well until the handle breaks. Mine broke exactly as described in other reviews, after less than 8 hours of use. I had the break welded without added reinforcing steel (cost me $5); I expect it to break again, and I'll have it welded again but next time with reinforcement. The bad handle makes this aerator "junk," but the well designed and robust tines (coring tubes) make it "excellent" -- hence my 3 stars.

I wouldn't use it to do a whole yard but works great to do spot aerating in heavily thatched areas.
Solidly built tool. Great for spot aerating which is what I bought it for.
