Overview
Tow-behind dethatchers and landscape rakes remove thatch, lift debris and help lawns breathe. These VEVOR models share robust Q235 steel construction but differ in working width, tine type and mounting method — all important when pairing to an ATV or tractor.
Narrower units (around 40in) are better for small lawns, tight access and lighter tow vehicles; wider 60–72in models cut area per pass and suit larger tractors or commercial jobs. Tine count and length affect how aggressively the machine lifts thatch and how much surface disturbance you’ll create.
Mount type matters: simple tow hitches suit ATVs and lawn tractors, while three-point attachments tie into tractor hydraulics and heavier mounting for demanding work. Also consider replaceable tines, weight and whether you need a lift handle or suspension compatibility for toolbar mounting.
Below are four VEVOR tow-behind dethatchers and rakes, ranked by a mix of everyday usability and versatility. Read the card details to match width and tine style to the size of your tractor and the condition of your turf.

Detailed reviews
#1 VEVOR Tow Behind Dethatcher, 40-inch Tow Dethatcher with 20 Spring Steel Tines, Lawn Dethatcher Rake for ATV or Mower, Tow Behind Lawn Rake with Lift Handle for Garden Farm Grass
This 40-inch VEVOR tow-behind dethatcher is a compact, hitch-mounted rake designed for ATVs and small mowers. It comes with 20 spring steel tines that provide flexible contact with the turf, lifting light to moderate thatch without excessive soil disturbance. The unit is relatively light and includes a lift handle for repositioning or when attaching to a vehicle. Construction uses Q235 steel for durability, and the universal-style bottom plate and hitch make it straightforward to fit to most small tow vehicles. It’s a practical entry-level option for homeowners who want a dedicated dethatching pass without the footprint or weight of a tractor-mounted tool.
Key features
- Working width: 40 inches (1015 mm)
- 20 spring steel tines, 200 mm tine length
- Q235 steel construction for the frame
- Lift handle for manoeuvring and hitching

#2 VEVOR Tow Behind Landscape Rake, 72" Tow Dethatcher with 32 Steel Tines, Lawn Dethatcher Rake Attaches to Category 1, 3 Point Hitch for Tractor, for Leaves, Pine Needles, Straw, and Grass
This 72-inch VEVOR landscape rake is built for bigger jobs and tractor use. It fits Category 1 three-point hitches and has 32 spring steel tines sized for sweeping leaves, pine needles, straw and light thatch. The larger working width reduces passes across an area, and replaceable tines make maintenance straightforward. The unit is heavier than the smaller tow model but remains a practical choice where a compact tractor can provide adequate towing and stability. It’s a versatile rake for groundskeepers and larger-property owners who want a tow-behind or hitch-mounted tool that covers more ground per pass.
Key features
- Working width: 72 inches (1830 mm)
- 32 spring steel tines with larger sweep area

#3 VEVOR Tow Behind Dethatcher, 72-inch Tow Dethatcher with 36 Steel Tines, 3-Point Lawn Dethatcher Rake with Attachments for Tractor, Landscape Rake for Garden, Farm, Grass
This heavy-duty 72-inch VEVOR dethatcher is aimed at tougher jobs and larger tracts of turf. With 36 steel tines arranged for dense coverage and a three-point mounting system, it’s built to attach securely to tractors and take on more demanding dethatching tasks. The larger tine count increases contact frequency across the pass, which can improve thatch lift on thicker layers. The frame and fittings are sized for heavier use, and the product weight reflects a sturdier build, so ensure your tractor can manage the load. This model suits estate maintenance, farm use and contractors who need a wide, durable dethatcher.
Key features
- Working width: 72 inches (1830 mm)
- 36 steel tines for dense coverage
- Heavy-duty Q235 steel construction

#4 VEVOR Tow Behind Landscape Rake, 60" Tow Dethatcher with 21 Steel Coil Tines, Lawn Dethatcher Rake Attaches to 48" or 60" Toolbars and 3-point Suspension Systems, for Leaves, Pine Needles, and Grass
The 60-inch VEVOR landscape rake is a mid-width option that fits 48in or 60in toolbars and several three-point suspension systems. Its 21 steel coil tines offer an intermediate approach to thatch and debris removal — more aggressive than small spring tines but less heavy-duty than long steel tines. That balance suits medium-sized lawns, small estates or municipal green spaces where flexibility of mounting and moderate coverage are priorities. The frame is Q235 steel and tines are replaceable, but like all mid-weight units it’s important to confirm attachment compatibility with your toolbar or tractor before buying.
Key features
- Working width: 60 inches (1524 mm)
- 21 steel coil tines for medium-duty dethatching
- Fits 48" or 60" toolbars and three-point suspension systems
- Q235 steel frame construction
- Replaceable tines for easier maintenance
- Product weight approx. 30 kg (balancing weight and manoeuvrability)
Buying guide
Choose width by lawn size and tractor power: 40in for small gardens and ATVs; 60–72in for larger areas or commercial use. Higher tine counts generally give more contact points and smoother results; longer, heavier tines penetrate deeper and are better for compacted thatch. Match the mount to your vehicle — hitch-mounted units are simplest, three-point models offer greater stability. Check weight against your tractor’s tow capacity, and look for replaceable tines and clear instructions for adjustment and storage. Finally, inspect retailer pages for up-to-date price, delivery and any accessory notes before buying.
FAQs
How do I choose the right width?
Match width to the area you need to cover and your vehicle. Use 40in for small lawns and narrow access, 60–72in for larger properties. Wider rakes reduce passes but need a stronger tow vehicle.
What’s the difference between spring and coil tines?
Spring tines are flexible and good for lighter dethatching; coil or heavy-duty steel tines dig deeper and handle heavier thatch. Choose based on how compacted and thick your thatch layer is.
Our recommended choice
For most homeowners wanting a practical, compact tool that works with small mowers and ATVs the 40-inch VEVOR tow-behind dethatcher offers a good balance of width, manageable weight and simple hitch compatibility. For larger jobs or tractor-mounted work the 60–72in variants give higher productivity but require the right mounting and towing capacity.
