Never seen those ones in stores around here, but they can't be any worse than the ones HD has made by Ames.

I use this kind, but i can get them for 10 bucks at ( harbor freight ) these are the best for raking in bark mulch beds, they pick up less bark then other rakes. and you can adjust width for around shrubs and other plants in beds.

Everyone in So. California uses them and every mower shop carries them. Theres a nother company called flex that makes the same 19" rake, actually theres are slightly better than the Corona, Ive just have not found any where to order some from. I buy the Coronas 6 at a time because of the price and shipping. I generally will go through 2 or 3 per season, more if they get runover my the mowers.
