Product Description
The Grass Stitcher lets you inexpensively repair bare spots in your lawn quickly and easily. This revolutionary eco-lawn tool works right through dead grass, and leaving the organic material in place adds beneficial mulch and nutrients. Just add seed and water and walk away. There are many ways to make holes in the ground, but no tool can make holes like the Grass Stitcher. It creates the perfect environment for grass seed germination because of the unique plowing action of the wheels, the precise shape and size of the spikes, and the efficient handle design. The efficient handle allows users to easily apply force to the wheels using either foot pressure or body weight. Durable poly/fiberglass wheels withstand the force so the spikes penetrate the soil at the correct depth. The wheels penetrate at a distinct angle, creating a plowing effect, loosening and mounding soil. The spikes penetrate up to their small, stubby support arm, achieving the correct depth each time and creating an extra-wide hole that's surrounded by the mounded loose soil. The loosened soil crumbles on top of the seeds when watered. The spiked wheels grind the existing grass, effectively recycling it as mulch. Lifetime warranty.

This review is from: Grass Stitcher GSS-001 10-Inch Single Grass Stitcher (Lawn & Patio)
The Grass Stitcher is actually a great invention and worked as advertised. The handle is very heavy duty tubular steel and appears indestructible. The rows of teeth on the business end of the tool are made of a plastic material that are not indestructible. In my first use of the tool to repair some bare patches in my lawn a plastic tooth on the head of the tool struck a piece of wood mulch in the ground and broke a tooth. I also had another tooth get bent presumably by a small rock. The results were great, and the tool created a great aerated spot for grass seed and the bare spots are now sporting new grass. My concern is how many more uses will I get from this tool with the plastic teeth? The product comes with allegedly a life time warranty. Seems like the engineers should have used metal instead of plastic for the teeth.
As a postscript I will add that the manufacturer took the time to read my review, and actually send me new teeth for the tool. The company also confirmed that the tool comes with a lifetime warranty and will replace any damaged parts for the life of the tool. Grassstitcher is a class act!

This review is from: Grass Stitcher GSS-001 10-Inch Single Grass Stitcher (Lawn & Patio)
Contrary to most of the Amazon reviews, I find this tool very disappointing and not worth the money. The construction of the main shaft, footrest and wheel base is solid and well-built. The wheels / teeth are constructed of some allegedly "forgiving" poly / fiberglass material, even if the wheels / teeth come across and feel fragile. This startles me (in comparison to the solid construction of the rest of the tool.). We've used the tool for the past few days with very mixed emotions and at best average results. Unless the soil is loose, this tool might as well be classified under fitness instruments. It's not easy to use in tough, compacted soil. Even when used in accordance with enclosed instructions it becomes an exercise in acrobatics. The "no back or arm muscles" description promoted on the Amazon site comes across as ironic since the contortion or balancing act effected with the Grass Stitcher on tough or compacted soil most definitely include the referenced muscles. In all fairness to the Grass Stitcher, I must mention that the tool comes with "a no-questions-asked lifetime warranty and 100-Percent satisfaction guarantee." In my humble opinion, I would in all likelihood need the warranty if I were to continue use of the tool on our property. The latter, however, is unlikely. This tool doesn't save me any time or effort over the good ol' traditional and definitely more effective seeding techniques. I'm a gadget aficionado and will try any gardening tool that renders my gardening work more efficient. The Grass Stitcher doesn't meet that benchmark even remotely.
Follow-up: In full disclosure, I have decided to return the Grass Stitcher.

Great lawn repair tool!,

I purchased this tool to repair spots in my lawn where I have had difficulty growing grass in the past. The tool made a big difference. It is very easy to use and is the best thing I've found for fixing spots in the lawn. It really loosens the soil so the grass seed has a change to germinate and grow. It works very well with very little effort in spots where the ground is hard. It stores easily and is easy to grab and quickly use to patch areas in the yard.
