Title: Doesn't go deep enough.
Product review: Although assembly does take a bit of work, it wasn't too difficult. My problem with this is that it doesn't have much weight to it to sink the spikes into the ground. If you push it hard enough it does work on soil that is fairly soft already, but for soil that has compacted from foot traffic the spikes just glance over the surface. I even tried lashing a rock to the handle just above the spike wheel, but that didn't help much either.If your looking for something that will help with upkeep on a lawn that isn't having problems this is probably okay, but if your trying to repair areas that are already compacted you'll need something more substantial. (Since this does disassemble fairly easily and was relatively cheap I'm going to create a "potato masher" aerator with the parts from this.)
