Rake 55-inch Lightweight Fiberglass Handle, 21-inch Head, Durable Steel Tines for Gardening, De-Thatching or Professional Landscaping

I love this rake, it's very sturdy. And for pulling moss out of the lawn, it works much better than the standard dethatching rake I bought at Home Depot, which pulls out a lot of grass. Like any dethatch rake, it takes a lot of work to remove moss from a lawn so you wouldn't want to dethatch or remove moss from an entire lawn using it. But it's great for spot applications.

Excellent thatching rake! Lightweight and seems very durable. Thatches bermudagrass well without destroying it or pulling up grass roots. Great find

Let me start by saying this rake is fantastic. I've had a dead pine fall through the center of my orchard last year, and after cutting it all up and moving it, I could seem to find a way to get all of the inbedded branches and twigs out of the ground. I've tried hardware store rakes and they are not sturdy enough to pull sticks out of the ground. I've tried my landscaping rake but it just bounces and skips over everything. So I read some reviews and found this beauty, first impression, the tines look like something you'd find on farm equipment, thin, but very sturdy and spring loaded. This rake ripped all of those branches out of the ground, from the tiny little twigs, to branches up to 3-4 inches wide, it even dug up branches I couldn't even see. Up until now I've been weed wacking this whole area, but now that I have the means to clean it back up, I can finally push mower it again. I had to add a picture of just one row I've done, it was a quick pass and I only went over it once, but the results are astounding. This is only one row of my orchard and I've got lots to go, thank the heavens I've found this rake. I am a little old fashioned and would prefer a wooden handle, however I understand that keeping it light was the idea, it is very light and not very tasking to use, and it's made in the USA. Don't hesitate, I can't think of many better ways to spend 50 dollars.

Easy to assemble. I would recommend it be used in very early spring, as it is very difficult to rake out old grass if there is any new green growth. Works best on dormant/dead grass - easier to se!

Pros: lightweight but still durable. Rakes pine needles with minimal clogging. Work well raking over rock landscaping. Replaceable parts available.Cons: Expensive. Tends to dig in or disrupt ground in current configuration. Pin used for attaching handle to head is a joke. With very little use it will cause hole in plastic head and/or fiberglass handle to become worn and loose. More plastic in that area of head is needed plus a bolt needs to go through to other side to make handle attachment secure.I bought this rake specifically for raking pine needles that fall over decroative rock landscaping. Needles clog up tines in all other rakes I have used. I need to point out that I modified the rake so the head is at a 30° angle to the handle. This places the tines at a less angle thus not digging up the rocks and less likely plug up with needles. I know this rake is on the pricey side but if the manufacturer would add an adjustable head to handle device. I also drilled the hole in the head through the underside and used 1/4" bolt and nut for a more stable attachment. Sorry, couldn't get a photo of modification to upload.

Having a large yard, I was skeptic of the design but wanted to give it a try. Great for raking out vine weeds, moving mulch and maintaining the yard. Was also using for thatching areas vs the standard thach rake. This removed the dead, opened the soil for new seed without ripping out as much grass as thatch.Will definitely keep one in tools to maintain the yard.

Simple assembly with one centering nail. Long splines efficiently rake up leaves, clearing rake head of clumped leaves with upside down swipe on ground. No need to hand pick leaves out. Light weight minimizes fatigue.

I thatch lawns for a living. Own 7 gas powered thatching machines. This is a fantastic tool to keep your lawn in top shape. If your soil is hard as a brick then water a LITTLE bit first to increase the quality of your work and ease of use. This tool is best for small to medium lawns. Better than a electric thatching machine. Great for spot treatments on larger lawns. Hundreds of my clients have purchased this rake and I've got lots of thank yous for this advice.I live in Seattle, WA. Used on Perennial rye grass and fescue. Occasional blue grass. It's a rake. Don't do your whole lawn in 1 day. Space your raking sessions out. You should really use this rake multiple times a year. It's really a cool light tool that's a fantastic investment. Best prices are in winter and early spring. This tool regurly sells out and costs a lot during the summer and fall months. Thats my experience with this rake over the last 6 years. Watch out buying this rake elsewhere other than Amazon. Scammers will list this rake and will hide shipping rates of $100 or more. It's really a thing. By the time the rake finally arrives from those shady sites those scammers have closed their business and then opened a new one. Yes, this works because who would expect that to happen when buying a lawn rake. I live in Seattle with lots of tech savvy people that did not take my advice. Buy the rake on Amazon or wait. Best of luck to you and happy raking. Stewart In Seattle
