Landscape Rake
T
his isn't a rake for everybody because of its 36-inch width. It takes up a lot of room in the storage shed but because of its wide width it does a lot of work with one or two pushes and pulls of the handle.

The aluminum construction is light weight but the rake isn't flimsy. It's solid so you don't have to worry about bending the tines or dislodging the head from the handle. If you're a vegetable gardener the rake is perfect for leveling and smoothing the beds as you prepare for spring or fall planting. It's also a great tool for spreading the pea gravel in your driveway that gets kicked out of place from all the traffice.

The landscape rake can make quick work of leveling pea gravel and garden beds.
