  • Our take on the Yard Commander 42-Inch Tow-Behind Lawn Sweeper

    The Yard Commander is a tow-behind lawn sweeper with a 42-inch sweeping path and a 17.79-cu-ft hopper, pulled behind a riding mower or garden tractor. Its nylon brushes spin as the wheels roll, lifting grass clippings and leaves into the hopper, and a lever adjusts brush height for different surfaces. The wide path and large hopper mean fewer passes and less dumping than smaller 26- to 30-inch sweepers, though it needs a tow vehicle and works best on flat, open lawns. Owners of large yards tend to like the capacity; uneven ground and wet debris are where it struggles.

    What reviewers say

    Owners of large properties generally find the wide path and big hopper cut cleanup time compared with raking or smaller sweepers. Complaints center on wet debris, uneven terrain and the need to tune brush height.

    What people mention
    • Sweeping widthPraisedOwners say the 42-inch path clears large lawns in far fewer passes than narrower sweepers.
    • Hopper capacityPraisedThe large hopper is liked for letting them sweep longer before stopping to dump.
    • Wet debrisCriticisedReviewers report it leaves wet or matted leaves behind and clogs the brushes.
    • Uneven groundCriticisedOn bumpy or sloped turf it bounces and misses debris, according to owners.
    • SetupMixedAssembly and hitch alignment are described as fiddly but manageable.
    • Brush heightMixedThe height adjustment helps on different surfaces but needs frequent tuning.

    Questions and answers

    What do I need to tow it?
    A riding mower, garden tractor or ATV with a hitch. It has no engine of its own and relies on the tow vehicle to move it.
    Does it work on wet leaves?
    Poorly. Wet or matted debris tends to clog the brushes and stay on the lawn, so sweep when the ground and leaves are dry.
    How often do I empty the hopper?
    The 17.79-cu-ft hopper holds a lot, so on a large lawn you dump far less often than with a bagger or smaller sweeper. Heavy leaf cover still fills it quickly.
    Can I adjust it for different surfaces?
    Yes. Brush height adjusts so the brushes contact turf without digging in, and you can raise them for hard surfaces.
    Is it better than a bagging mower attachment?
    It sweeps a wider path and holds more debris than most baggers, but it is a separate towed unit and works best on flat, dry, open lawns.
    Do the wheels need air?
    No. The never-flat wheels are designed to avoid punctures and pressure checks.
    Where is the Yard Commander 42-Inch Tow-Behind Lawn Sweeper cheapest?
