I would almost say renting one is the best play for a tow behind unless you have plenty of storage space and don’t mind biting the bullet for a good quality one. The one they sell at Lowe’s is <$300 and reviews say it’s built cheaply.
what's one cost to rent? i looked up the one our local rental place has and it didn't have a price. If i assume it's $100 for a weekend, that's 3 uses and my purchased one is paid for. I was looking at the agrifab and have an agrifab sweeper that is good quality. also, i pullet up a video of the one my local place has (bluebird 350) and it's beating the shite out of the guy using it. i just want to make sure the tow behind one actually penetrates and pulls plugs from someone with real world use...

I have a tow behind, and it does a decent job. You have to really load up weight on it and the soil needs to be fairly soft/moist.
The plugs tend to be pretty short in comparison to a better one that you’d rent. But it does the trick and it’s worth it if you have a place to store it.
Also wouldn’t recommend pulling it with a zero turn. Either a lawn tractor or an ATV. It’s heavy and tough on the equipment.
If I had a smaller yard (<3/4 Ac), I’d likely just rent the better one.

The agrifab will have no problem pulling plugs as long as enough weight is on there. The lever to raise and lower the tines might be a pain in the arse
