Great if you know what you're doing, not recommended if you don't

Great if you know what you're doing, not recommended if you don't
First, let me admit that I have no idea what I'm doing with respect to lawn care, so these were a little out of my comfort zone from the beginning. I decided to aerate and seed my own lawn mainly because someone told me that I couldn't and the thought of paying someone to do it was a little much for me (basically, I am stubborn, and I am cheap). I feel like someone who knows what they're doing might have a better time with these, but as I said, I'm not that person.My first qualm with this product is that there were no instructions included at all. It came unassembled and with no guidance. There's a strong possibly that I did something wrong when I was putting these together, though I have no way of knowing if that's the case. Also, there appears to be extra spikes and nuts in the package. I assume that they are included in case one breaks or falls out, but I could have done something wrong.To piggyback on the "no instructions" problem, I'm not sure when or how to use this product, and that might have been helpful to include. I tried them when everything was very dry and also when things were a little damp from a rainstorm to see the difference as both were recommended when I googled how to use them. Both instances tore up chunks of my lawn when I would lift the sandals. After walking out of one of the sandals (possibly because I assembled it incorrectly), I realized that I was able to get better payoff with just one on. (Also, at one point, both of my feet got stuck, and I fell down pretty hard. Luckily it was in my backyard and not too public.)One thing that I will say for this product is that it seems to be well constructed. The plastic on the soles is very substantial, the spikes are sturdy, and the straps seems to be sturdy as well.I'm not sure that I'll ever try these again; it was a little exhausting, and I'm not sure if it was worth it. I think I'm going to have to break down and hire someone to handle my lawn for me. If this product is something that you're familiar with, and if you know what you're doing with actually utilizing them for their full purpose, these would be absolutely perfect for you, however, if you don't know what you're doing, I would not recommend them.I was offered this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for aerating a small to mid sized yard
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2017

If you are looking for something that gives you big, deep plugs, you need to pay big bucks for the professionals. However, if you just need an annual aerating job done and want to do it yourself, these are a great option. They were a bit awkward, at first, but I soon got the hang of it. Being from Colorado, they reminded me a lot of walking in snow shoes. It is best to use them a day or two after a good watering or rain. The first time I tried them, it had just rained and it was really hard to walk, as they stuck into the mud. So, I waited a couple of days and then they worked great. The ground was just right and they went in and out of the ground, with ease. You will want to wear a sturdy pair of shoes but the straps fit snugly and I had no problems with them staying on. I felt they did a great job on our yard and am really happy with them.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dangerous item!
Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2016

Reading all the reviews, I wondered what they all talk about in terms of lack of assembly instructions. After all, the assembly consisted of inserting the screws into the platform and fastening them. Once I got to the straps I realized what everyone was talking about. Long story short, I couldn't get the straps stay tight, they loosen up and move as one walks. Tried it at least 4-5 times. They are extremely dangerous and a major trip hazard as they loosen up and move. I'm sure if there was a proper form of instruction, a lot of tripping and falling would be eliminated. Just a couple notes to add, my house is on a hill side and my feet doesn't cover the entire front portion. The manufacturer needs to cover all the basis in terms of size and location the item will be used. I will change my review if a video instruction is added to the Amazon site.

If the soil is damp, it sticks like glue to the spikes and you pull up a pound of dirt with each step. If the soil is dry, the spikes don't penetrate. Finally, the locations and angles of the slots that you thread the straps through aren't placed very well, so the sandals don't fit snugly and securely on your shoes/boots. It may be a good concept, but not very functional. I'll keep looking for something that works better, but I'm not convinced any spikes that you walk upon will do the trick.

The design could be a little better, occasionally slipping off the foot no matter how tight you pull and secure the straps. Ive used them twice with out a great deal of success. I'll probably resell these. I have small areas of aeration that have been done. If you are thinking of walking behind the lawn mower while mowing the lawn, think again.

I haven't tried them out yet but they appear to do the trick. I'm actually not going to use them to aerate my lawn. I'm going to use them for traction while working on my waterfall so that I don't fall into my pond. They assembled fine and seem to be sturdily made.

I had to continue to tighten the straps. After the first use, the nuts were loose on some spikes and a couple of spikes are already bent to an angle. I would recommend staying with a plug machine so the lawn isn't compacted.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple but brilliant idea
Reviewed in Canada on April 10, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is ingenious. Amazon strikes again, providing access to yet other awesome gadget style product. I have had a lot of trouble maintaining a good healthy lawn on the front of my home. We have tried just about everything, new topsoil, expensive grass seed, fertilizer. We even stripped the lawn and started from scratch but the grass refuses to look healthy and fresh. I have a friend who does the grounds keeping where I work and I asked him how the grass can look so good around the buildings with so many people walking on it. He said the secret is to Aerate the lawn. He said it makes a world of difference.

So I figured why not. Only thing is I did not want to spend a fortune to by a heavy piece of equipment for the job. Cue these shoes. The are will built, nice and solid. The straps tighten perfectly and the spikes are long and anchored into the shoe very well. The best part of this is there will not really be any extra work. When I go out to dethatch the lawn with the rake this spring I can just strap these on and aerate as I go.

Such a simple but brilliant idea. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars a great solution to an age old problem!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 2, 2018

I have to say I was a bit dubious as to how effective these would be - I previously had an electric scarifer/aerator and found it tore up a lot of the garden...and having moved to a smaller house I was looking for something else!

I have to say I am impressed - once you insert the spikes and tighten the nuts, attach the straps and get use to walking on them they are great! I have been stomping round the garden for an hour without any problems!

My lawn was previously pebbled but I had it removed and re-turfed. The soil underneath is very uneven due to this - some bits hard and some bits soft and they punctured the soil and I had no problems! I would recommend using after a shower ( of rain - not you personally) when the ground is slightly soft - not hard or sodden.

The only thing I would have liked is instructions came with them - the spikes are easy enough to attach but I did have a few problems with the straps and still not sure if I have them right!

The nails broke off from the plastic. This is not that easy to use, though it puts holes. Very difficult to walk and difficult to wear it and remove. The bands become loose very easily. I won’t use it anymore

Sturdy product but didn't work for me. I am short and have quite small feet (size 4). Unfortunately they didn't stay on as my feet didn't reach the last 2 straps. Also, although I saturated the lawn beforehand I just couldn't get the spikes to penetrate the ground.
That said, I got a friend to try them out for me (a slightly larger gentleman) and he had no problems. So probably a good product but you need a bit of heft behind it that I lack
