I'm getting ready to order a few Stinger aerators, a rider and couple dual-aers and am looking for feed back from current owners. Everything I've seen is very positive but want to hear the negatives too.

I can’t really think of anything bad about the qa3000 I bought. It really does exactly as advertised with no hassle. I think I’m going to buy a dual aer shortly as well.
The only down fall we have found is making sure that you do not get the tubes where the seed come out wet. If you rinse or wash your machine and need to use it the next day the seed is going to stick and clog where it comes out. It would be nice to fabricate a guard or something that covers this area in the event you are transporting on wet roads in the morning or for when you are washing it. Other than that this machine just flat our makes you money. If you just get the aerator of course no need to worry about seed clogging up.
If you are an expert, maintenance might be easy for you. or else, aerators and riders may need things like blade sharpening, oil changes, and basic maintenance to stay in top shape. Additionally, the initial cost might strain your budget.
I’ve used the Toro and the Ryan stand one and they are light up front like you said but the Stinger I’m telling you comes up in the front much easier! With that being said the Stinger is the best hands down just go slow going up an incline and I would buy those weights.
What did you pay for the machine ?
Weight is not needed. Go across hills. If you try driving up a hill you are going to destroy the lawn.
