What is a dethatcher?
A dethatcher is a specialized tool that targets the thatch layer of your lawn — also known as the thick layer of organic matter that accumulates between the grass and soil. A thick layer of thatch can harm your lawn, making it difficult for water and fertilizer to penetrate deep beneath the grass.
It can also make it difficult for roots to spread beneath the soil, giving your lawn a shallow root system and exposing it to greater temperature extremes. Using a dethatcher helps to remove this debris layer, helping your grass to thrive in more ideal growing conditions.
Best time to dethatch your lawn
Since dethatching can put stress on your lawn, it's best not to do too frequently — no more than once a year. For warm-season turf that's found in most parts of Canada, it's recommended to wait until the active growing season has begun in late spring to get started.

This dethatcher uses a 10 amp electric motor, along with a 14" dethatching path to get your work done faster. It also lets you choose from three tine depth positions for even greater control in the removal of matted thatch layers.
This tool has an ergonomic, padded grip and adjustable handle for user comfort, and folds up when not in use for easy storage.
As for customer feedback, the Greenworks 27022 10 Amp 14" Corded Dethatcher has earned an impressive 4.6-star average rating from more than 13,000 customer reviews.
Shoppers say that it's a "cost-effective" alternative to hiring a landscaping company to do the same job, and helps with "removing dead grass so easily."
"Efficient, lightweight, quick — worth the investment," shared one reviewer.
"Great alternative to a hand rake," added another.
According to reviewers, the cord on this dethatcher can sometimes be inconvenient to manoeuvre around. It's also worth noting that it doesn't have a bag attachment, which means you'll have to spend some time raking after you complete your job.
However, this dethatcher is an affordable option if you don't mind putting in some yard work, as it "will pay for itself" when compared to hiring a lawn care company.
