This is working well, if not perfectly, for removing debris from a rock border; it will work just fine in flower beds as well.

exactly what I need to rake under shrubs and in tight spaces.
well built and sturdy.
wish they had a single tine version to get into those really tight spaces (hmmm...maybe I can make one with coat hanger wire and a piece of dowel for the handle...thanks Kinsman for the idea!)

It was so difficult to rake under shrubs and plants with a long-handled rake. When I saw this in your catalog, I knew it was exactly what I needed. I was right!

Hand rake is the best
Posted By: Sheila Schrank
Location: Gloucester, MA United States
Comments:
I love the small and sturdy hand rake that has lasted me years. For small areas and rock gardens it is flexible and removes debris from hard to reach areas. They seem to last forever and hope you never change the design. Seems that I paid the same price for one 4 yrs. ago and my gardening friends know where to purchase one. Out of all my gardening tools, this is the one I use for Spring cleanups. I own three now for one at each end of the house and gave one to a friend. Surprised they don't sell out each season. Thank you for offering this terrific hand rake.

So glad I bought this. It's great for getting under and around plants and shrubs that you can't get a regular rake into. It even helps to pull out some weeds that are hard to get too. It's my current favorite tool!

My FAVORITE garden tool of all
Posted By: JJB
Location: Erving, MA United States
Comments:
I purchased one of these quite a few years ago and I have loved it.
Just recently I put it on my tarp along with leaves, twigs, and other organic matter and tossed it all down into the gully in the backyard. I was so angry at myself--spent a week tearing up piles of leaves, branches and pine needles. I gave up momentarily and decided to see if you still offered it and, lo and behold, you did so I purchased two. BUT, I still went back to that gully determined to find it until I remembered I had a friend with a metal detector who came over and discovered it in one minute. Oh, happy day! I received the two new ones. One went to a friend, but, the other one is mine, just in case.
THAT tool is that important to me.

Posted By: Lisa
Location: Allen, OK United States
Comments:
I have never seen this rake before but the minute I saw it in the catalogue I had a eureka moment & have been using ever since I received it. Good quality, not flimsy, & it with the long times it reaches to areas I would otherwise have to move, reposition myself to get to. Needless to say it saves me from possibly getting snake bit by not using my hands to rake leaves & debris where they could be hiding.

This will be my 5th hand rake to order. I already have one and bought 3 more for my daughter and two daughters
in-law. This one will have the handle(that conveniently has screws that secure it) removed and exchanged for a little longer one. i don't generally like telescoping handles or I would order your Leaf rake. I think my idea will work better. This little hand rake is fantastic.

This rake is perfect for my garden. I have an established yard so there isn't room in the beds for a large rake. This rake is perfect for cleaning up around plants. I have had one for years but after a major cleanup project, it was unfortunately scopped up with the debris and lost. This time, we ordered two, one for me and one for my granddaughter.

I ordered two of the great rakes! I had and used one for years, my daughter took it when she recently bought a house. She agrees with me that it is a wonderful tool! Small size makes it great for working close to plant roots and stems. It is sturdy but flexible enough to not hurt delicate plantungs.

Best thing since white bread..
Posted By: Lynn L
Location: Revere, MA United States

This is the best thing since white bread. It lets me reach in and around my plants, bushes and trees and pull out leaves that get caught behind and around them. I used to try to pull those leaves out with a small rake, but it would catch on the fences, shrubs and plants. This tool is like an extension of my hand and I can reach with out kneeling and crawling in to get leaves. I just love this little tool!

Posted By: Steve

Comments:
This is a great tool for cleaning up garden planter beds, and around and underneath shrubs. It is not a precision crafted garden tool, however, as the handle feels loose while working with it, giving it a tentative feel. We have an almost identical hand rake that we purchased at a local nursery, but they do not stock this particular hand rake anymore. It was not only perfect in function, but in form as well. But in all fairness, it did cost us twice as much.
