Landscape Rake 36'', Aluminum Rakes with Lightweight 69'' Handle, Landscaping Rake Tool for Lawn Care, Beach

The media could not be loaded. Taking care of a lawn may be stressful, particularly when you are working with a bigger area, and using a hefty rake simply adds to the strain that you are already experiencing. The aluminum handle of this rake is sufficiently lightweight to enable longer periods of raking without exhausting the user to an excessive degree. In comparison to the heavier steel rakes that I have used in the past, I was able to notice the difference in the rake after using it for about two hours straight during my first lawn session. As a matter of fact, it is something that makes the task of mowing the grass more pleasurable and less stressful. Because of its breadth, I am able to cover terrain really rapidly, which is particularly beneficial when I am working with bigger areas of grass. The amount of time it used to take me to rake up dead grass, leaves, and other little detritus was cut in half by my newfound ability. After a day of strong winds, I also used it in the beach area to level down the sand and clean away some loose debris, and it worked fairly well in both of those endeavors. In addition, the long handle is 69 inches in length, which allows for excellent reach. This allows me to work without having to bend as much, which is much healthier for my back.

Even though the handle is in 2 pieces, when bolted together it's solid as a rock.

Product broke after first use handle snapped where it attaches at the head of the rake

This seemed super easy to assemble however when we got to it we realized the pre drilled holes were off. I would’ve returned but I didn’t have time so we ended up drilling out our holes to make it work. The rake works great and I’m super happy with it regardless if I had to make my own holes to make it work

The aluminum head and strong tines work perfectly for smoothing out surfaces without digging too deep, which is exactly what I needed for my landscaping project

The media could not be loaded. I am an avid gardener, but as a wheelchair user it can be challenging. I decided to use mulch in-between my raised garden beds to create pathways to drive over. The problem is that I can get stuck in it if it's too thick of a layer of mulch. This is the perfect solution because it allows me to spread it out in an even layer. It's really big, but still easy to maneuver. It does require some assembly, but it was a quick fix and only took a couple of minutes. It's very sturdy, but surprisingly lightweight. I can hang it up in the garage when I'm finished without having to worry about it being too heavy.

This works like it’s supposed to. It seems sturdy enough. A pair of gloves come with this product, so I recommend using them when assembling so you don’t cut yourself with some of the sharp metal edges.

Does very well taking sand in my chicken coop have also used it for some yard debris leveling.
