2.0 out of 5 stars Rakes fine...breaks within a year, February 11, 2009

The rake overall design is good except the wooden part of the handle broke on mine. I purchased it at Home Depot. Mine didn't have a padded handle, but it is the same rake. It sold under the "VIGORO" brand name and says it has a 25-year limited warranty, but I'm on my third contact trying to get some resoluton. I won't stop. If you offer a warranty you should back it up.

Sold also as the Stanley Brand with lifetime warranty. My Dad had the original and it lasted him fine. I picked one up and the plastic piece that holds the tines to the handle broke after one season.

No matter what brand is on it, call Ames True Temper for warranty replacement.

They sent me a new one and it looks like they fixed that weak spot.

I saw them again for sale at Walmart (under various brand names now). August 2010. Get it for fall while you can.

I thought this rake would last for years, as it has a 10-year warranty, but unfortunately, the handle broke after only 2 months of use. Rather than go through the hassle of trying to return it to the company under warranty, I bought a metal reinforced handle and now I think I have a rake that will last for many years. The poly-plastic rake is light and gathers leaves easily, but the handle flexed too much and in time broke. Great rake - poor handle. Won't buy one of these again.
