Review: Ardisam Earthquake DK43 dethatcher kit | Ever-Curious Geek

I've owned an Ardisam Earthquake MC43 2-cycle gas tiller for a few years now and it's been a scrappy little workhorse around my garden, but today I'm trying out the Ardisam Earthquake DK43 dethatcher kit for dethatching a lawn. I've been in my house for about nine years and have never done much to my front lawn other than mowing it, fertilizing it with Milorganite and occasionally trying to overseed it. I can see a heavy layer of thatch and also some moss, so it's obvious that not all the sunlight, water and fertilizer isn't penetrating as well as it should. So I thought I'd give this a try.
It is available on Amazon or select home center websites like Home Depot. If you order it on Amazon, there are often "Warehouse Deals" on it that bring it down from $85+ to around $50 just because the packaging seems prone to getting beat up. The kit comes with left and right side tines with wheels, a metal apron or shield and a few parts for installing it. Watch the video to see how easy (or not!) it is to use and how well it worked for me.

🤪 ► WHO AM I?
I'm an artsy Midwest landscape photographer, a writer / blogger, a product reviewer / tester / focus group of one, a radio / TV / film major turned social media manager / content marketer, a tech geek raised in (and in many ways stuck on) the era of MS-DOS & NES, a DIY enthusiast / maker / tinkerer, a pop culture geek, a movie lover (and a collector with a fierce loyalty to DVDs and Blu-rays over streaming), and a social media comedian / general wiseass. I'm a weird creative hyphenate who's always curious and chasing after what's cool and beautiful in this crazy world of ours.
I vlog and stream videos (and often long stream of consciousness rants) about art photography, movies, social media, tech, Bob Ross-style wet on wet oil painting, pop culture, general geekdom, DIY / maker projects, reviews, Midwest life (Wisconsin & Minnesota generally) and whatever else lights my brain that week.
I'm based in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and travel often to Door County Wisconsin, Duluth Minnesota, Superior Wisconsin and all over the Midwest for photography, exploration and general fun and merriment.
