Very soon the snow will start to melt, and the gardening work will begin. A rake always turns out to be an assistant in this matter. With its help, leaves and garbage are removed.
Nowadays, there is a wide range of rakes available in stores, so many people are at a loss when choosing.
An expert of the MOS SMI portal, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you how to choose a rake for your plot.
Material
First of all, it is important to consider the material. It must be strong and durable.
The best option is a metal rake. It is suitable for working with soil and large leaves. However, its disadvantage is that it is heavy.
A lighter option is a wooden rake. They are convenient, but less durable. Such a rake will be a great help in collecting light garbage.
Size
A rake that is too big can be inconvenient when cleaning tight spaces, which is why it is worth giving preference to smaller options.
It is important to consider that the length of the handle should be comfortable so that the person does not bend their back unnecessarily.
Rake teeth
When choosing a rake, it is important to pay attention to the teeth. Sharp and narrow teeth will help you work with the lawn or soil, and wide teeth are suitable for collecting leaves.
By following these tips, you can choose a rake without any difficulty.
