Timber Tuff TMW-71 Brush Rake

I received it in the mail the other day and I guess I didn’t read the details too well. I didn’t realize it came in 3 pieces. Which is fine. I bought it to use in my burn pit which it works well in. The only thing is the inserts that go into the threaded pipe will come loose over time, they’re straigh and not tapered. So as a fix I’ll probably just add a bit off locktite on the threads to deal with that. Other than that great product so far.

It seems they fixed any quality control issues per negative reviews in the past. This rake is heavy duty. It weighs a lot but what you want to pull back small brush and twigs. The rake comes with a few screw in handles for shipping. I recommend using some glue so they don’t loosen. I am happy I purchased. I mainly use it to pull leaves and grass clippings out of my Agri-Fab mow and vac. There is nothing that works better to do this.

I really wanted to like this beast. I do a lot of trail work and, tho this is a heavy, first time out was in an area we're reclaiming as field. Dragging it along the ground collected brush and debris from bayberry and other shrubs removed by others. Next day, back at that same site, the handle broke where the top section threads into the bottom section. Just by dragging it! That threaded coupling must be incredibly weak! I'd send it back but really want to use this to clean the brush so I removed the t-handle from the section that broke, put a hardwood plug into the what was then the top section, slid the t-handle over that, drilled holes for the set-screws and there's just enough length to make this thing still work. SOOOO disappointed and can't even recoup my investment. Hope the shorter handled work-around works long enough to eek out some value.

I just got this rake in a couple of days ago and have used it rake hay, bark, and manure. This will be a go to tool. Very heavy duty and heavy. This will be doing the jobs that a regular rake or pitch fork just weren't able to do. I don't think this would be good for raking up shrub trimmings or other light duty clean up's but for what its intended for it's the bomb.

This is a sturdy unit and it is ideal for my work. However, the three-part shaft creates a couple of annoying problems.First, the three part shaft screws together very easily, but it also unscrews very easily. I have to screw things back tight every few minutes. I probably will have to put some JB Weld on the threads to make a stable shaft.Second, the handle does not line up with the rake head. This is a design problem or possibly a quality control issue. I will have to remove the plastic handle, orient it properly, mark the points where the bolt holes through the pipe ought to have been drilled, drill new holes, etc.

We used the rake for raking brush up to 4 inches thick. It performs very well. It is a little heavy for us old timers but it performs as advertised. Still using it.

This is heavy, but it does a heavy duty job! Very happy with this purchase. Great for taking twigs and rocks. You

Rake is a piece of sh...t. broke after 5 minutes. The rake head looks good but the metal that screws the handle/pole is made out of the softest metal ive ever seen. Just tore apart. Cant even believe this can be sold to the public. I dont write reviews but i had to let you all know that this is the biggest disappointment purchase of my entire life. DO NOT BUY. INVENTOR SHOULD BE DISBARRED.
