Lawn Aerator Shoes with Stainless Steel Shovel, Free-Installation Aerating Shoes with Hook & Loop Straps, Heavy Duty Spiked Aerating Sandals, One-Size-Fits-All for Yard Patio Garden Grass Lawn

These work well. You should avoid scrimping on a cheaper version as they will break, but these are robust in the sole and the spikes. It also comes with a handy trowel for cleaning that can double for other gardening jobs. You need to spend a bit of time with the strapping. For the average (size 9) foot you'll need to bring the toe strap back a notch. Don't bring the heal strap forward (for the average foot) as the back strap isn't long enough. Make sure the Velcro is on the outside (there isn't left or right shoe) to avoid the strapping riding up on your ankle. Then, tramp away like a pantomime giant! Don't go over the same spot too often as you'll quickly start digging up your lawn.

They are certainly well made, sturdy and robust, but I have reservations about how easy they are to get on. I use an old pair of hiking boots for the garden and had great difficulty strapping on the spikes. It was much easier when I changed to a pair of trainers/walking shoes as I could slip my foot in from the back and tighten the straps around my foot, which was something I could not do with the boots. I did not feel totally safe wearing them when mowing, though, as they are best used walking in a straight line and not turning, when there is a tendency to go over on your ankle. For the same reason I would caution against using them on a hard surface such as a drive or pathway. All in all, though, they are a good buy and it feels as they would go a great job of aerating the lawn, as the spikes sink right in to the ground quite easily and smoothly. The addition of extra spikes, a spanner and trowel are a bonus!

These arrived all ready to use. Very easy to get on. Im a uk size 10 so they fit really well. They are very tough and good value for money. They are light weight so as long as you move slowly its easy to keep your balance. They velcro straps worked fine and the tighter the better.

Ok firstly the positives; They are very robust and did the job asked of them and the price is pretty good. Look as if they will last quite a few years. Ok cons: they are tricky to put on and it helps if your a contortionist or get someone else to do them up for you: Also it was a bit annoying that some of the spikes kept coming loose so had to keep stopping to tighten them up again. But you get a spanner with them to do this so its not the end of the world, just awkward and time consuming. One last con and this may be unique to me but since I have spiked my lawn using these, my pretty health lawn has developed large yellow patches of grass and the grass appears to be dying. I would say over 30% of the lawn that I aerated. Not sure why and other than cutting the grass i had done nothing to it, so can only assume these have caused the grass to die. This is very disappointing as my grass was looking the best it had done in years, so just be aware. If your grass is looking ok, I would not recommend using these just in case the same happens to you. shame as I have clay rich soil and I was so hoping this item would help with drainage Hope this information is useful

Used three or four times now , and very impressed.

They seem sturdy but be careful when walking over paving or gravel as that becomes an interesting experience! I stumbled and very nearly punctured the hosepipe 😂 There's nothing complicated about assembly and they seem to work very well providing good aeration to the soil. If they last as long as I think they should then they're certainly good value for money compared to many others that will only probably last a few uses. The packaging makes interesting claims about them being a good way to exercise but I'm not entirely convinced about that! They're comfortable enough as you'd expect and make decent size and length holes in the lawn. I personally find that with our clay soil it's much better to wear only one shoe and not fall over.

I enjoy my garden and each yr I attempt to keep lawn in good condition by aerating and scarifying. In the past, to aerate, I did use a garden fork across on 60m sq lawn. As you imagine quite labour intensive So I saw these aerator shoes as an easier, less labour intensive. 1st use of these shoes did make the process much easier and quicker. Ground was sodden so I guess made it easier. First impressions are very positive and really pleased on time saved. Will look to do again in month. Positive purchase 👍

I recently tried out the Ohuhu Lawn Aerator Shoes with Stainless Steel Shovel, and I'm impressed with their performance, rating them a solid four stars. Here's why: Effective Aeration: These shoes make aerating the lawn a breeze. The stainless steel spikes penetrate the soil easily, allowing for proper airflow and water absorption, which promotes healthier grass growth. I noticed a significant improvement in my lawn's vitality after just a few uses. Convenient Design: One of the highlights of these aerator shoes is their ease of use. They're simple to put on and tighten, thanks to the adjustable straps. However, it's worth noting that those with smaller feet may find the straps a bit loose, so it's important to ensure a snug fit before use. Durable Construction: The stainless steel spikes and sturdy straps contribute to the overall durability of these aerator shoes. I appreciate that they can withstand the rigors of regular lawn maintenance without showing signs of wear and tear. Bonus Shovel: The inclusion of a stainless steel shovel is a nice bonus. It's useful for various gardening tasks beyond aerating, adding extra value to the purchase.
