## Overview

The Brinly STS-42BHDK-A is a premium 42" tow-behind lawn sweeper with an integrated dethatcher, designed to streamline lawn maintenance by combining sweeping and dethatching in one pass. Featuring a high-velocity 6-brush system, a large 20 cubic foot hamper, adjustable rust-resistant steel tines, and durable wheels, it delivers efficient debris pickup and thatch removal. Made in the USA with a two-year warranty, its folding storage design and transport mode tines add convenience for professional-grade lawn care.

## Description

Sweeping and dethatching are both key elements of maintaining a beautiful lawn—and now you have the powerful tool that can do both! The Brinly STS-42BHDK combines a premium lawn sweeper with a durable tine dethatcher to help you get the job done faster and easier than ever before. A 2-in-1 solution for maximum efficiency, you can dethatch while simultaneously picking up the debris—combining what was once two jobs into one. Enhanced with multiple rows of flexible tines, you'll rake up harmful thatch quickly and be well on your way to healthier, thicker turf. For additional versatility, a simple pull of the handle raises the dethatcher tines up and out of the way when you just need to sweep. The towable lawn sweeper’s durable fabric hamper has the capacity to haul an incredible 20 cubic feet of materials. Combined with the wide, 42-inch sweep path, you’ll cover maximum ground in minimum time. When you are ready to empty the hopper, you can do so easily right from the seat of your tractor. The six high-velocity sweeper brushes rotate quickly and effectively to continuously pick up material. Rotating from a split axel, the brushes keep revolving even as the tractor turns for non-stop pick-up. The 5:1 brush-to-wheel ratio results in higher tip velocity, creating extra force to lift debris off the ground. The tread-heavy 12" x 3" wheels and consistent brush-to-ground contact prevent skidding when the ground is wet or if the hopper is unfilled. Additional features include easily adjustable brush-to-ground height settings to minimize skipping and maximize performance even when traveling over uneven terrain. The dethatch tines are secured by safety wires and will hold the tine to prevent damage to your mower blade in the event of breakage. The Brinly STS-42BHDK is made in the USA and comes with a two-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Review: Well worth the money. Same as a John Deere. - Due to a recent shoulder surgery (and passing the 65 year milestone) My wife and I are not able to rake the massive amount of leaves this fall. We have a one acre yard with over a dozen large Oak & Aspen trees. We explored options and my wife wanted to try a lawn sweeper. We spent a lot of time looking at lawn sweepers, their videos, and reading owner reviews here on desertcart. We started with the cheaper ones and noted all the negatives; assembly challenges, missing parts, lack of durability, poor construction, questionable engineering, dumping leaves on top of the sweeper when emptying, etc. We also noted several reviewers mentioned owning more expensive models for years and then purchasing the cheaper ones, to their regret. My wife suggested stopping by the local John Deere dealer. (JD models did not appear in the desertcart searches). After all the videos and reviews, we had an idea what to look for. The John Deere sweeper was clearly head & shoulders above the completion. And it came assembled. But it was pricey. All equipment needs maintenance and repair through use. So I ran a search on desertcart to see if we could get parts part for the John Deere Sweeper and discovered the Brinly sweeper with the built in Dethatcher. I also discovered that parts for the JD and the Brinly were interchangeable. It is the exact same sweeper as the John Deere! The Brinley had the same solid construction using thicker steel tubing with bolts and self locking nuts. Instead of the competition’s pins with hairpins that fall out. It had dual drive gearboxes, one on each wheel. Instead of on just one wheel. The bag was sturdy and solid instead of the thin plastic mesh that lower priced ones used. And the integrated de-thatcher looked to be a game changer. And the Brinly sweeper with the built in de-thatcher was considerably cheaper than the JD similarly out fitted. Oddly, the Brinly sweeper had never came up in any of our searches on desertcart. Can’t Say why. The Brinly sweeper arrived last week. A good friend helped me assemble it. Came well packed. All parts were present and accounted for. No damage to the paint or any of the parts. The instructions were concise and well organized. All the nuts and bolts were “blister packed” on a large card. And separated & grouped by each each step in the assembly instructions. You just opened each section one at a time as you went along. Nothing could be easier. The de-thatcher came in a separate box with separate instructions. That was really good. Prevented any confusion of parts. Took us about 2 hours to assemble it. We went slow and took our time. Only tools needed were a couple metric wrenches and sockets. A couple of notes on Assembly. - Highly suggest reading thru the directions and laying out/organizing the larger parts in the order of assembly, First before beginning assembly. - Do not open the blister packs until you need them for that step in the assembly. Prevents confusion and loss of nuts & bolts. - Using a battery operated drill to assemble the de-thatcher will save time. Be sure to adjust your torque setting so not to over thighten the self locking nuts. - My friend and I are handy. We have some experience with tools, and have large tool boxes to draw from. Both of us thought the assembly was straight forward. Just followed the directions. My wife and I have now used the Brinly sweeper 3 times over our 1 acre yard. It works better than expected. It picked up dry leaves flawlessly. Throwing them to the back of the hopper and filling it up. On the last use, we had rain for 2 days which brought down a lot of leaves. The back yard was covered in a thick coating. Fortunately, we had a strong breeze in the morning the next day, which helped dry the leaves on top a little. I removed the de-thatcher (just 2 bolts) because the leaf cover was so thick. And the sweeper picked the wet leaves right up. It barely missed any. And it was no effort to make another pass for those. The leaves were wet and heavy and the sweeper filled on just one pass. So I made more runs to the compost pile to empty the leaves. But all I did was swing by, slow to crawl, and pull the cord. Didn’t even stop. As expected, it took more effort to pull the cord because the leaves were wet and heavy. When I think of all the hours we spent raking leaves into piles. Then raking them onto tarps. And then dragging them across the yard to the compost pile. No more sore back, shoulders, or blisters on our hands! All I had to do was drive the mower around. I think it took us 1/3 the time we would normally have spent raking. I Love this sweeper!! A couple of notes on operation: - The construction of the sweeper was heavy enough that that the sweeper never missed a beat. Even when it was empty the tires never slipped, picking up, leaves on start up. - We followed the directions for the height adjustments. (Measuring the heights of the sweeper & the de-thatcher with the unit attached to our JD mower in the garage on a cement floor). It worked great the first time and no adjustments have been needed. The directions say that 3 miles an hour is the optimum speed. And that is true. You do not want to go too fast or too slow. Again just read and follow the directions. - The only con was that the pull rope was about 16 inches too short for the hook up on my mower and it popped off the Velcro when turning sharply. (Probably my fault as I put the Velcro on the right side next to the gear shift. That was easily remedied by just adding a piece to the rope. And I cannot even call that a negative. It would be impossible for the manufacturer to have one size fit every application & mower. - The list of pros for this Unit makes this an easy 5 star review. Brinly got it right with this one! Please - Spend the extra money and get a good quality sweeper! (Brinly or JD) The frustration and time you will save will more than make up for the extra $$. The old saying - you get what you pay for - is really true here. I cannot recommend the Brinly highly enough.
Review: Little bit of a pain in the neck to assemble - Very impressed how to clean the yard. The only thing I don’t like is the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this pick-up small branches?**
A: - Thanks for the question, Barnicruso! Yes, The 42" Brinly lawn sweeper works best on grass clippings, leaves, and pine straw, but it can pick small twigs!  With the proper height adjustment. Page 18 of the manual will help you set the height for your yard needs. I have attached a manual with the link below. You can reach us at 877-728-8224 or email us at customerservice@brinly.com. We look forward to helping you!  https://brinly.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/arrrhksqzldvbdkhq5qd.pdf

**Q: Will this pick up moss ?**
A: Hello Kalpesh and thank you for the question. The dethatcher part of the STS-42BHDK will break up the moss and bring it to the top of the grass. Then the sweeper half will pick the moss and any other thatch you bring up off your lawn. Please reach out to the customer service team with any other concerns.

**Q: Can it pick up horse manure?**
A: We are using it for thatching, and leaf and grass pickup only.  We sold our horses years back or we would try it. Husband says it should pick up dry manure but NOT fresh. Very durable and useful sweeper.  Would buy again.

A: Hello Tennessee and thank you for the question. They are two pneumatic tries for this unit. Please reach out to the customer service team with any other questions or concerns.

I finally picked up the Brinly tow-behind lawn sweeper with dethatcher, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite yard tools. I showcase a lot of equipment on my YouTube channel @LawnandOrderTexasEdition, and this one easily made the cut. The collection bin is significantly larger than my friend’s Agri-Fab model, and the dethatching tines do an excellent job once you dial in the right height (3 available settings). Whether you're raking up leaves, breaking up thatch, or cleaning up clippings — this tool just works. 🛠️ Assembly Tips: Instructions are clear, but here’s the key: the bars for the containment bin ARE different (top and bottom), so make sure you don’t mix them up. If the parts don’t fit together, you’ve probably got them reversed. Once assembled, the sweeper moves effortlessly across your lawn, sweeping debris cleanly into the bin. The hitch bracket also has 3 height adjustments, so if the tines or sweeper feel too high/low, that’s where to dial it in. ✅ What I Love: Dual function: Sweeper + dethatcher = time saver Large hamper: Less stopping to dump Windscreen: Prevents debris blow-out (unless you’re flying across the yard!) Solid build: Sturdy steel frame, rolls smooth Easy connection: Universal hitch fits most tractors Great customer service from Brinly if you need parts or help 🔧 Room for Improvement (But Not Dealbreakers): The unit is a bit heavy when the hamper is full, but manageable — just takes a little muscle on the rope to dump. Assembly can be tricky if you’re not paying close attention to the illustrations — but follow them carefully, and you’ll be fine. Yes, it’s more expensive than other sweepers — but this is one of those tools where you get what you pay for. This is a versatile, high-quality machine that helps me tackle fall clean-up, dethatching, and leaf season without breaking a sweat. 🎥 You can see it in use on my channel @LawnandOrderTexasEdition, where I show off how this unit handles debris in real Texas lawns with Bermuda grass. If you're serious about lawn care, this is a tool you'll appreciate every season. Highly recommend. Brinly nailed it.
