Metal leaf rake

Clean up the lawn or your border with leaf rakes.

What to look for in a metal leaf rake

These rakes come in a variety of widths and some are even adjustable. Look for one that has an enamel-coated head to avoid rust. And a stress distribution bar helps keep tines from twisting.

How to use a metal leaf rake

This is a good multipurpose rake. Its springy nature is perfect for working debris out of evergreen and deciduous shrubs, carefully fluffing up a ground cover in spring or working the thatch out of the lawn if you don’t own a thatch rake. It’s also good for raking leaves from the lawn but the narrow tines can sometimes get clogged with skewered leaves or snag on a vine or ground cover.

Additional Features

Rakes have various extra features that influence convenience and usability. If you plan on using the tool frequently, one or more of these features may be worth considering.

A telescoping handle allows users to adjust the handle length to suit their preference or to accommodate multiple users with varying heights.
