Darlac Expanding Telescopic Metal Leaf Rake Cuttings Lawn Adjustable | Telescopic, Garden Tools, Gardening

Got a lawn full of moss and thatch which has grown over the years. I found this great at clearing it and the tool is certainly strong enough for vigourous raking. Useful that it is telescopic and can be adusted to a length to suit your height and the spacing between the tines is adjustable. Very pleased and not too expensive.

Option to use fan end smaller or larger for different jobs. Like that can have handle at length that suits me then collapse it down to put in the car. Only strong enough prongs for leaves as designed for.

Overall I'm very impressed with the design of this rake, the best I've seen around, so would definitely recommend! Expanding/folding away is really intuitive and easy, particularly considering that some collapsable tools can be really stiff and fiddly, or constantly collapse while using. Just flip a lever and you can pull out/push in the tines, flipping back the lever to lock into place. A simple twist lets you extend the handle, and the length is fine for me (I'm just under 180cm tall and don't need to bend down at all). The twist to lock the handle into place could be a little firmer, as when I'm doing a lot of clearing it can twist open during use and start collapsing the handle, but that's more just personal preference and it's not really much bother to give it a quick twist shut again. One little thing I have noticed is that the tines do seem a little thin and wobbly, rattling a bit. But perhaps I'm just used to cheap stiff plastic rakes! It certainly seems sturdy enough, well built, and works brilliantly. It just means I use an extra little flick when raking cut grass into a pile, nothing to complain about. Particularly as someone who doesn't have a garage, and so very little space to store garden stuff, this is an truly fantastic design, and at £10 it's a real bargain!

Great. Does exactly what it says.

great, flexible options

This is heavy and hard work. But does the job. Just expect achy arms the next day.

Easy to use & adjust ,lightweight have taken many a time to my daughters to do garden & lawn.

Easy to open and close the prongs. Seems to do the job of bringing the leaves up, suspect i am working this thing quite hard as i have a water logged lawn, so not the easiest to rake up leaves without uprooting too much of the grass. Seems flimsy but also seems to do the job and rake up as well as not too much space in my shed, so meets my criteria. If you plan to use it alot then probably not for you as not that sturdy but for my wee lawn and needs seems fine

versatile

The rake snapped in half within 30 minutes of using it to rake leaves. I have no idea why there are so many good reviews of this product and honestly, I’m suspicious.

Buon attrezzo, robusto, funzionale, regolabile. Sono pienamemte soddisfatto dell'attrezzo. Svolge egregiamente il suo lavoro. Lo ricomprerei.
