## Description

Product Description Nurture your garden and your gardening journey with the Yard Butler Manual Lawn Coring Aerator.This garden tool is designed for homeowners who take pride in maintaining a lush, healthy yard. This manual lawn aerator tool is a cornerstone of effective lawn care, allowing water, nutrients, and oxygen to penetrate deep into the soil, fostering robust root development, and minimizing water runoff.Constructed from heavy-duty, powder-coated steel, this soil aerator is built to withstand the rigors of lawn aeration without succumbing to rust. Its 37" height is perfect for comfortable use without back strain, and the cushioned handles ensure a secure grip. A foot bar provides the extra leverage needed to aerate compact soil with ease, making it suitable even for hard, dry lawns—though pre-soaking is recommended for best results.Our lawn core aerator is not just a garden tool; it's a vital part of your lawn care equipment that enhances the health of your grass. By removing 3" plugs from your lawn, this core aeration tool significantly improves the efficiency of irrigation and fertilization.Yard Butler is devoted to helping people connect with the earth. Our innovative and tough gardening equipment helps inspire people to discover the joys of gardening or help them be successful on their gardening journey. Made in North America, all Yard Butler products are high-quality, sturdy, and reliable. Tend to your passion and fulfill your gardening dreams with Yard Butler gardening tools and supplies. From the Manufacturer The Yard Butler D-6C Core Lawn Aerator is great for old lawns or lawns where a lot of activity takes place. These type of yards become compacted. Also, thatch from dead leaves and roots builds up creating a barrier, keeping water and air from reaching the roots. The symptoms are thin turf with poor color and bare patches that don't respond to watering and fertilizer.

Review: Solid Tool That Gets the Job Done - I purchased the Butler Manual Lawn Coring Aerator to help improve my lawn's health, and I’ve been very impressed with how well it works. The tool is sturdy, well-built, and surprisingly easy to use for a manual aerator. It pulls nice, clean plugs from the soil, which has helped loosen up compacted areas in my yard. After using it, I noticed better water absorption and healthier grass growth in just a few weeks. It’s also a great alternative to renting a powered aerator if you have a smaller yard or prefer a more hands-on approach. The dethatching effect is an added bonus too—makes it a great 2-in-1 tool. Definitely a worthwhile investment for any DIY lawn care enthusiast. Highly recommended if you’re looking to give your grass a boost without breaking the bank.
Review: Very Impressed - I've used it several times in the past 6 weeks. I get my entire lawn core aerated annually by a gas powered machine, but I bought this for the following uses: * The soil gets compacted at the gate from the front yard to the back yard. It's a funnel so all of the traffic goes in a narrow area, and it especially gets compacted when I have a big garden project that requires wheel barrows. I used it here when it first arrived and it did great, and then used it again after a big gardening project. * I have St Augustine grass so in the fall there are a few areas that get brown patch. This year, on those 3 spots I used the aerator and then top dressed with leaf mold compost prior to brown patch season. Should prevent the brown patch and help get some organic matter into the soil. * The darn cinch bugs killed a couple spots in lawn along the sidewalk. After killing off the cinch bugs, I used the aerator in the dead grass and top dressed with leaf mold compost. The core aeration will help get some organic matter into the soil while the St. Augustine grass fills in the compost. Positives: * It produces nice sized cores both in terms of depth and diameter. * It's very simple to use. It's mindless work and one of the few times being overweight pays off. * It's very sturdy and well constructed. Feels like something that will last many, many years. Negatives: * It's a lot of work so best for small areas. Rent a gas powered core aerator to do entire lawn or hire a contractor. * The last core stays in the tool so you need to push it out with a screwdriver at the end of the project.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone tried using 2 of these at the same time one for each foot? I have one like it but think two could save time on areas too small power equip.**
A: You are going to hurt yourself if you try to use more than 1 plus you're not going to save any time because you will be on the ground. Proper use of this device requires using your hands on both handles to push down, pull up, and steady your body.

**Q: Are the cores tapered or straight? Sometimes straight pipe cores will clog when tapered cores clear out more easily in clay soil.**
A: I purchased this in 2018 and they are tapered. My micrometer says that the bottom (entrance) is 1/2" in diameter and the top (exit) is 3/32" larger. You can see the taper in the picture. I just dug out some frozen soil and it was quite easy to clear the tubes with a stick when I was done.

**Q: If you have been using it for more than one season, what is your opinion on the quality of this tool?**
A: This garden tool did not work for the Florida st. Augustine sod.  The plugs keep getting jammed in the extrusion holes and really provide very little relief to aeriating the lawn.

**Q: Can i get an exact diameter on the plugs it makes?  i'm trying to compare to the hound dog. bigger holes let more air in and plugs might eject easier.**
A: Don't waste your time.... I bought this, used it twice and the stems bent making it mostly useless. It no longer creates plugs. Just reams holes in the ground that close up after a good rain, which is pointless.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still best results compared to most other step types.
*by A***S on March 16, 2020*

Bought one a few years ago at a Lowe's or Osh that I thought was the Hound Dog branded "Turf Hound" but it looked almost identical to the "Yard Butler" instead, so I don't know if the companies are related or maybe I just had a brain fart and filed the memory incorrectly. It worked well enough that I wore that down to nubs (see photo comparing the old one to new) thanks to hard clay soil that had to be pretty moist to penetrate making the tips rust, chip,or bend into the tube, and then having to file or grind the ends back to a functional point. When this seasons plugs were all coming out stumpy, I figured I could use a replacement and wondered if there might be a tool that didn't clog as much as that had. I think that in certain clays, it's inevitable, though you can minimize it by working it only after it's been watered and oiling the tines before and after using the tool. I have tried ones with more tines, and they are much harder to push into the ground since I am only 5'2 and 130lbs, so the two tines works better for me. I also find the height of the handle appropriate on this one, and the T design is comfortable because I can switch feet easily, without knocking a knee into the sides of the handle. I'm not sure how this compares with using the Hound Dog model, except that the center handle might help with pivoting the thing from side to side more easily when necessary, or perhaps the stepping space might be easier to access on the Dog version because it's more open. But then again, I also find it helpful that the shape above the step on the Butler helps ensure I don't just step THROUGH it and miss planting it down firmly. I did try the red one with thicker tines and the step "lifting bar" (see pics for side by sides) in hopes that it would be less clog prone, but found that the shape made it noteably more difficult to push into the ground than the slightly thinner and longer tines of the Butler. It may be because they are thicker, even though they are tapered, or maybe because they are cut square instead of at an angle like the Butler, which slid much more deeply and smoothly into the ground. Though the other one DID seem to be less likely to pack up with soil IN the tines, it also was much more problematic in dirt clogging AROUND the them instead (see pics). Go figure... The step bar on the red one didn't really add anything useful to the process for me, as it wasn't really helpful to try and use my foot to pick up the tool. It actually seemed a bit more in the way when switching feet, which I did much more frequently than trying to lift it with the foot. Some may prefer the thicker grips on the red one, but my hands are pretty large and I had no issues with the thinner ones. The one clear advantage of the red one is really probably the color itself, as I did have trouble locating the green Yard Butler on the lawn if I stepped away from it. The red is totally obvious to spot immediately. Lastly, I also preferred the resulting plug length of the Butler. The thickness of the other was beaten by the depth of extracted material with Yard Butler. (Last picture shows all 3 YB cores on the left vs 3 shorter of the other tool on the right). Definitely get an extra inch or more with the YB tool. YB beats the spike sort and more complicated coring setups on manual tools. There might be some real advantage to a rolling disc type on ebay, but it costs much more. If you have a large enough yard, though, it might be worth the cost over renting something powered, especially if you don't have something that needs a riding mower in size. My mom's lawn is probably 2000 sq ft, and it can be a workout and a long day to step core the whole thing alone, but I do it a little at a time whenever I visit and it's fine because the tool is always available and quiet enough to use in the middle of the night so the summer heat isn't overwhelming. I dig it. And it really does improve the lawn significantly. If I see it's getting a bit tired looking, I know it's time to step some air into thr soil and it thickens up nicely. For the money, it's a win in my book. Id like to try the other design I saw on Amazon too, which ejects the cores on the SIDE of the tine instead of through the top, as that might be less likely to pack into a clog, but I would want to know it was really better before spending twice as much money on it. For now I am doing fine with this and maybe will try the other if it wears down so far in a few years as the last one did. ..
