Overview
These three VEVOR dethatchers share core construction in Q235 steel but differ in width, tine count and intended towing vehicle. The 40" is aimed at smaller lawns and ATVs, the 60" sits in the middle for larger domestic plots and small holdings, and the 72" is a heavy-duty, tractor-oriented option.
Width and number of tines affect how quickly you cover ground and how aggressive the action is. Narrower units are easier to manoeuvre and place less load on the tow vehicle, while wider tools reduce time spent but need stronger towing machines and more storage space.
Tine type matters too: the 40" uses spring steel tines while the 60" and 72" use heavier coil or steel tines intended for tougher jobs. Check how each model attaches (universal hitch, toolbar or three-point hitch) to ensure compatibility with your mower, ATV or tractor.

Buying guide
Match width to lawn size: choose a narrower unit for small gardens and an ATV, a mid-width for medium plots, and a wide, three-point hitch model for tractors and large acreage. Consider tine type and replaceability — heavier steel tines dig deeper but can stress the tow vehicle. Check hitch compatibility and connector sizes against your mower/ATV/tractor. Look at build weight and storage footprint, and factor in transport and lifting help if the unit is heavy. Always check the retailer page for the latest price, delivery terms and whether additional attachments are required.
FAQs
How do I choose the right width?
Pick a width you can tow safely and store. Narrower (40") suits small lawns and ATVs; 60" is a compromise for medium areas; 72" is best with a tractor and for larger properties.
Can I replace tines?
The 60" and 72" list replaceable steel tines; the 40" uses spring steel tines. Confirm replacement availability and spare-part numbers on the retailer page before buying.
Will these attach to my mower or tractor?
Attachment types vary: the 40" lists a universal hitch for ATVs/mowers, the 60" mentions compatibility with 48"/60" toolbars and 3-point systems, and the 72" is specified for three-point hitch tractors. Check connector sizes and hitch compatibility with your machine.
Our recommended choice
For most home gardeners and anyone towing behind an ATV or garden tractor, the 40" VEVOR model offers the simplest, cheapest and most manoeuvrable option. It covers smaller lawns effectively while keeping the load light. If you need more width or heavier-duty tines, step up to the 60" or 72" models depending on your tow vehicle and plot size.
