Best Garden Rakes in the UK – 8 Recommendations

Best Garden Telescopic & Turf Rakes

If the Garden rakes already outlined above don’t meet all of your expectations so far, then check out our last 2 recommendations summarised briefly as follows. They include a Telescopic length Rake which are ideal for denser thicker and harder to reach flower beds or work areas and the widths of the working tines can be adjusted to 48cm (or 19 inches) wide. For narrower areas, the tines then can be reduced to a working width of just 19cm (or 7.5 inches) which works better around closely located denser plants giving you more flexibility with the task at hand.

In addition, if the areas you need raked are turf type surfaces or carpet like artificial grass surfaces, then you should take a closer look at the last Turf rake option below that will work as a better solution overall for your raking needs.

The rake we have looks like the Cherry Lane carbon steel as described above. We have had it for many years and it seems adequate for the garden work we have. I really like that Spear and Jackson three in one though when it comes to upgrading. I like the handle and it is light enough to work with. As my husband and myself are at the age when we prefer to do as little bending and stooping as possible, this would be great for us. I also find it affordable. Thank you for this information that shows us that we have options when it coming to raking our garden estate and tidying it all up
