- Leaves
- Grass clippings
- Light lawn debris
A wide, light 24-inch poly fan rake, the default for clearing dry leaves and grass clippings off open lawns; its 29 flexible resin tines flex over bumps without gouging turf, backed by a lifetime warranty. Where it falls short: poly lacks steel's bite on wet, matted leaves, the broad head won't fit tight beds, and the tines splay under pressure.
Pros
- Lightweight aluminum handle keeps fatigue down on big fall leaf jobs

Cons
- Poly tines lack the bite of steel on matted, wet leaves or thatch
- The 24 in head is too wide to maneuver in tight flower beds
- Tines can splay or flatten if you bear down hard for leverage

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why poly tines instead of steel for leaves?
- They flex over bumps and beds without gouging turf, which steel tines do not. The cost is bite — poly struggles on matted, wet leaves and thatch where steel would pull through.
- Is a 24-inch head too wide?
- For open lawns it is efficient; for tight flower beds it is too wide to maneuver. If most of your raking is between plantings, a narrower head is easier.
- Will the tines break?
- The resin head is backed by a lifetime warranty, but tines can splay or flatten if you bear down hard using the rake as a lever. Rake with it rather than prying with it.
