The UK's bestBrushes for Artificial Grass2022 Review

The Turfmatic™ Artificial Grass Sweeper is one of the best artificial lawn brushes for large gardens. It comes with a generous 50 L debris collection box and is equipped with a powerful 1800 W motor. This makes it the most powerful grass sweeper featured here.

The 38 cm brush head means this sweeper can cover larger gardens quickly, but the machine isn’t so bulky as to be inconvenient. It remains sufficiently manoeuvrable and can be used on any type of artificial grass surface. There are 5 sweeping heights to choose from to make sure it is suitable for different varieties of astro turf.

Capable of both lifting and vacuuming debris from your lawn, this artificial lawn sweeper gets down to the ‘roots’ of fake grass, shifting debris thanks to its strong brush rollers. It also successfully fluffs up artificial grass meaning that old turf can be made to look newer and more realistic, while freshly laid turf will be lifted from its compacted state. 

This sweeper is fairly easy to store thanks to the folding frame. It weighs 14.8 kg and comes with a 10 m power cord. In large gardens, you will likely need to use an extension cable depending on your garden layout.

Thanks to its size and power, this is the best artificial lawn brush for large gardens. It may be a little bulky to manoeuvre around smaller areas, but it’s got the size and power to improve the appearance of artificial grass on large lawns.

The Wolf Artificial Lawn Brush works deep into artificial grass, picking out pieces of fine debris that you might not even know were in there.

With a width of 38 cm, this lawn brush works efficiently across larger stretches of artificial lawn. The wide rotating brush has a diameter of 12.8 cm and is powered by a 1600 W motor. It easily pulls pet hair, dust, twigs and debris out from artificial grass. Plus, it not only removes these particles, but it also fluffs up the lawn, refreshing any flat, downtrodden grass.

Be aware that this brush is very powerful. Whilst this is generally great news for cleaning the lawn, you should make sure that all artificial grass is firmly secured before using it.

There are five adjustable brush heights overall, ranging from -12 mm to 6 mm. Not only does this help clean the grass, but by using this lawn brush in different directions you can also use it to create a striped effect over the lawn.

With a 45 L grass collection bag, this artificial turf brush can be used as your primary lawn-cleaning tool. The only time that an additional garden vacuum might be required is at the edges of the lawn – this brush can’t clean right up against fences or walls.

It’s straightforward to put this sweeper together and assembly takes around 20 minutes. The handles fold down for easy storage in small sheds or garages. The 10 m cable is suitable for small/medium lawns but may require an extension in bigger areas.

Overall, this is a very powerful machine and one of the best brushes for artificial grass in terms of versatility. It will easily remove both small and large particles from the lawn.

The best sweeper for those who want a narrow, handheld electric brush, the Batavia Maxxbrush Electric Power Cleaning Brush is compact yet powerful, with a 26 cm working width and 1020 W motor. 

This artificial grass brush is a lot easier to manoeuvre than most brushes, with a much narrower brush width. This makes it ideal for small gardens with narrow pathways. You’ll also be able to work on slim areas of lawn and underneath garden furniture with flexibility that a four-wheeled brush doesn’t allow. 

The telescopic aluminium pole can be adjusted to suit users of different heights, while the adjustable hand grip is comfortable to hold for long periods. 

This brush can be used to clean and sweep almost any surface, including block paving, patios, artificial grass, astro turf and wooden decking. The brush head included is for general cleaning, but other brush heads can be purchased separately for specialised cleaning.

The speed of the brush can be adjusted from 2000 to 4000 rpm for additional cleaning power depending on the durability and condition of your grass.

One thing to note is that the cable is only 30 cm in length. An extension cable will almost definitely be required if you’ve got anything more than a small rectangle of turf! 

Overall, this is the best artificial lawn brush on the market if you’re after the power of an electric brush but the narrow manoeuvrability of a standard broom.

The Turfmatic™ Artificial Grass Brush Electric Power Broom is the best electric brush for medium/large gardens with a lot of borders and boundaries. It boasts a wide 60 cm broom head that allows you to cover larger areas in a fraction of the time you would with a traditional broom.

Plus, thanks to the handheld design of this brush, it can get right up to the edges of the lawn. Many other artificial grass brooms are unable to get right up against boundary lines because the wheels get in the way.

The 1500 W motor and 200 rpm working speed enables it to get deep into the turf to remove debris. Once this artificial lawn sweeper has removed the debris, it will need to be vacuumed separately as this brush has no hoover function. 

Ideal for freshly laid artificial turf, this brush can also lift the grass strands from their compacted state, fluffing them up and making them look more realistic. It’s suitable for both regular maintenance jobs and new instals, making it better value for money than a lot of other brooms on the market. 

With an alloy steel body and guard, this brush also feels good quality. The 10 m cable, although not overly long, means you should be able to get around most medium size lawns. For larger areas, you’ll likely need an extension.

At 18 kg, this brush is one of the heaviest featured here. It remains easy to use, but the weight might be off putting for some users.

Overall, thanks to its wide size and ability to get close to edges, this is the best artificial lawn brush for medium/large gardens that have lots of boundary lines.

With strong bristles, a large collection bag, and a lightweight build that’s easy to push, the Hyundai HYSW1600E Artificial Grass Sweeper is an excellent choice for any size garden.

This brush lifts and collects debris and dust whilst also ‘fluffing’ the pile on artificial grass. In fact, it’s even capable of creating stripes, and it doesn’t take hours to use either. There’s an element of self propulsion from the rotating brushes on this sweeper which makes it feel light and easy to manoeuvre.

This artificial turd brush is equipped with a powerful 1600 W motor that makes it ideal for sweeping artificial grass along with other surfaces as well. It’s very versatile and can be used to sweep pathways, driveways, patios and decking areas. Given that the brushing action is quite strong, you can use this brush to effectively clean a lot of surfaces – just make sure the brush height is suitably adjusted so that it doesn’t cause damage to wood.

This artificial grass brush has five adjustable brush heights available, ranging from -12 mm to 6 mm. This helps remove dirt, debris and dust from the very ‘root’ of your artificial grass. It also has a 45 L dust catcher to make it easier to get rid of the dirt. The 38 cm working width makes it suitable for working quickly across artificial turf, and the 10 m cable gives flexibility for small/medium gardens.

This brush can be assembled in just 15 minutes and the instructions are very clear. Once assembled, it weighs 13.3 kg in total.

The only real downside to this artificial turf brush is that it can’t go right to the edges of your lawn if there are fences or walls (a relatively universal problem with electric brushes). This means you may need to go over the edges with a manual brush or vacuum to get them to the same standard as the rest of the lawn.

Overall, this model is very powerful and effective. I’m recommending it as the best brush for artificial grass because it works quickly, cleans effectively and is easy to use.

The AGM 141EUK Comber Electric Artificial Grass Power Brush is a lightweight yet powerful handheld electric lawn brush that quickly refreshes artificial grass.

This Artificial Grass Power Brush is a lot easier to manoeuvre than four-wheeled electric brushes, thanks to its slimmer design, and it weighs just 5 kg. Although it needs to be supported more than four-wheeled machines, there are two ergonomic handles which make it easy to grip onto. The brush has a twin-drum nylon brush system that offers a total sweeping width of 40 cm.

The benefit of it being handheld is that you have a lot more flexibility and manoeuvrability; for example, you can work even in narrow areas of lawn or underneath garden furniture. As a result, this is one of the best brushes for artificial grass if you want an electric model that will also get right up against obstacles and lawn edges.

This Artificial Grass Power Brush is very effective, helping to lift debris as well as fluff the artificial grass upwards to make your lawn look thicker and more alive. It can also be used to clean patios, driveways and decking areas. Of course, one of the main downsides is that there’s no collection box, so you’ll need to vacuum your grass afterwards or use a dustpan and brush.

Due to its handheld nature, combined with the 10 m power cable, this machine is better suited to small/medium gardens rather than larger spaces. The single forward speed means clearing the garden takes a fraction of the time that it would with a traditional brush.

Although a small amount of self assembly is required to put the handle and shaft together, this is very easily done. Also, another benefit of this Artificial Grass Power Brush is that it’s very compact for an electric model, meaning it can be stored in a small shed or cupboard if needed.

As mentioned, this brush is particularly useful if you want the power of an electric model, but need to work in tighter spaces. It dramatically improves the appearance of flattened artificial grass, is easy to manoeuvre, and has tough bristles that effectively shift debris.

If you’re fed up of a tired-looking lawn, the Spear & Jackson Astro Brush is capable of refreshing artificial grass so that it looks new again.

Even if it’s been several years since your Astro turf was laid, this artificial grass broom runs through and lifts all the garden debris, whilst also encouraging artificial turf to stand up and stop looking so downtrodden.

It has curved bristles that help comb through the lawn’s strands as well as get into corners and around obstacles like flowerpots. Even where leaf blowers and lawn vacuums fail, this Astro Turf Brush shines through.

Whilst vacuums can hoover up larger items like leaves, they don’t always have success against smaller items or animal fur on artificial grass. This artificial grass broom, however, picks up dog and cat hair and stops it from matting up the lawn.

Basically, if there is debris clogging up your faux lawn, this is one of the best brushes for artificial grass and Astro turf to go for. One of its main advantages is how well it cleans artificial grass, but it is also durable, easy to store, and comfortable to use, which are other bonuses.

The telescopic handle uses a twist-and-click mechanism to change the length, and it can be collapsed down for easier storage. For the most part, the handle is strong and durable; however, it does have a bit of flex when extended to its full length.

Overall, this Spear & Jackson artificial grass broom works well with very few disadvantages. It can both clear artificial grass and fluff up the pile, and it offers great value for money as well.

This lightweight Bergman Artificial Grass Astro Lawn Rake Brush offers a simple yet effective way to clean small/medium lawns with artificial grass.

With high-grade polyamide filament bristles, this artificial grass rake gently lifts grass tufts which have been flattened by footfall. Given that it can improve the appearance of the grass blades without causing damage, it’s also a good choice if you are concerned that electric brushes may be too powerful for your artificial grass lawn.

Thanks to the long length of the brush’s bristles, it can clean to the ‘roots’ of artificial grass and remove leaves, stones and garden debris. However, if you have a lot of moss growing on your artificial turf, you may need a more heavy-duty tool. Overall, this brush is a good choice for regular garden maintenance.

Lightweight and easy to use, this artificial grass rake allows for a comfortable working position thanks to the telescopic twist-and-lock handle. The handle can be extended from 78 cm to 130 cm to suit users of different heights (you might even be able to persuade the kids to lend you a hand!). The sweeping width of 45 cm means that this brush covers quite a wide area when working.

As you can imagine, thanks to its narrow design, this artificial grass rake is very easy to store so it’s a good choice for anyone short on space. The handle can be shortened, and the brush head removed, so it takes up very little room.

If you’re on a tighter budget, this is the best brush for artificial grass. It still effectively removes debris and lifts the pile on artificial grass, but it’s much less of an investment than electric models. It will be best suited to smaller lawns, but it will also be useful for tidying the edges of larger gardens.

For a model that can be used both outside and inside the house, the Orientools Artificial Lawn Brush is versatile enough to be used on either artificial grass or carpets.

This is particularly useful if you have pets, seeing as their fur is renowned for getting stuck everywhere! The brush will pick it out of artificial grass, as well as collect it up from the carpet pile inside.

It’s not as heavy duty as some of the artificial turf brushes featured on this page, and may not work as well on artificial grass that has a dense build up of vegetation caught in it. However, it’s very effective at clearing moss and leaves, making it especially useful if your garden is surrounded by a lot of trees.

The handle is telescopic, and extends between 80 – 130 cm. Whilst generally comfortable, this may be a little short for users over 6 foot, especially when used over an extended period.

However, the fact that it’s collapsible makes it simple to store, and the head can be quickly removed, making this artificial grass broom easy to fit into storage cupboards and even drawers. It also has a hook, so can be hung up in the shed.

If you have pets, and want a tool that will help keep the carpet and Astro turf clear, this is one of the best lawn brushes for artificial grass and Astro turf. As mentioned, it’s not the strongest brush for tackling tangles of vegetation on the pile, but it will help keep on top of regular garden maintenance.

This SmashingDealsDirect Artificial Lawn Rake makes use of 194 polyamide bristles to sweep up garden debris from artificial grass.

Combing through the lawn, it picks out the leaves, twigs and general detritus that can lead to artificial grass looking tired and worn. It also perks up the individual strands of fake grass by ‘fluffing’ them up, causing them to stand more vertically.

Because of this, it’s one of the best brushes for artificial grass and Astro turf if you want to revitalise your lawn. Whilst strong enough to remove most debris, the bristles won’t damage the artificial grass during use.

The rake has a telescopic, extendable handle that can be adjusted from 78 – 130 cm. This makes it the same height as the Coopers of Stortford Rake and Bergam Lawn Rake, compacting down small for storage. The handle is made from powder-coated steel which will help prevent rusting.

Although a bit of ‘elbow grease’ is required to get the most out of this artificial turf rake (it’s still a manual tool, after all!), it’s a useful asset to have in the shed to spruce up fake grass when needed.
