The Power Rake

The “Power Rake” from Lee Valley has a Gimpy friendly five-foot handle that swivels and is easy to hold. Your back will thank you because the rake’s design lets you work the rake without having to lift it as much as a traditional rake:

Lee Valley calls it the Power Rake because this rugged beast gathers leaves and twigs, rakes soil, spreads top dressings and has a rotating hand grip for a low or high angle of attack (for dethatching or raking).
