Collector Series 26 in. Poly Leaf Rake

A:  Yes, I bought mine in the Gainesville, TX store.

A:  I bought one last week. It was the last one my store had. I hope they bring them back.

A:  I bought it on the clearance rake

A:  This rake has not been discontinued. Inventory will be replenished soon. Please contact our call center at 800.393.1846 or email us at help@ames.com for any updates.

A:  No. This is a plastic grass rake intended for grass and leaves. You would need to buy a stronger stone rake.

A:  I don't think this is the right rake for moving concrete pieces around. It's lightweight, thin, plastic. I'd use a metal rake for moving concrete pieces.

A:  Its a pretty sturdy beast so I don't see it not working. It is made of plastic so it will give after a certain point in time and use if its used strictly for that in a heavy usage way. I've had mine for a few years now and use it for leaves and its flawless. Give it a shot, go slow and don't put so much weight on the rake tips when sweeping large amounts. Good Luck...

A:  It would likely break with heavier load.

A:  No this take is weak
