NEW Ryobi Dethatcher/Scarifier coming to the USA! | UNBOX and DEMO! | 2021/28
I recently received a Ryobi Dethatcher Scarifier from the UK via Amazon. This unit is now available in the United States as the P2740 from Home Depot!. This is part of the 18V ONE+ line, but uses TWO 18V batteries, for extended run time.
I unboxed the unit, it was light weight and relatively easy to assemble, in fact I didn't even refer to the instruction, with only one misstep, the unit was fully assembled in just a few minutes. I installed two fully charged 3ah batteries and started the tryout phase. This is where I encountered a problem. The 3ah batteries, just do not have enough "oompf" I swapped those out with to 6ah batteries, and there were no further problems, the unit ran flawlessly. But I can see why a 40V battery would be a better power source for this unit.
I was able to dethatch/scarify my entire front yard, which is a little over 1,500 square feet, and this thing worked its magic. I was able to pull out a huge pile of thatch and dead grass from my lawn. I could have gone over it again, but I just didn't have enough space to dispose of the waste, another round in the fall is usually part of my lawn routine.
The unit performed very well, comparable to the corded SunJoe unit. both are 13 inches wide and weigh about the same. The SunJoe has a dethatch and scarifying blade, the Ryobi only has a scarifying blade. Price wise, without the shipping from the UK, the Ryobi is a little more expensive at $278USD plus about $175USD for shipping. The SunJoe is only $159USD, and the Greenworks is $129USD. BUT the Ryobi is is cordless. The SunJoe nor the Greeworks are cordless. Greenworks and Einhall make cordless units, but you need to buy their propriety batteries, there units with batteries are $378 and $278 respectively. So, if it wasn't for the shipping the Ryobi would be the clear winner just in price, and that you would not need to buy any new batteries if you were already in the Ryobi ecosystem.
