There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
There are some negative reviews about the lip of the rake being on the wrong side. It's exactly where it is supposed to be. The bent lip does not go against the shingles. There would be no way for it to sink into the snow on the roof if that lip was at the bottom. It's the straight, no-lip edge that sinks down into the snow and helps you clear it away. The lip is supposed to be at the top so that the snow you're trying to pull off the roof doesn't just raise up and over the edge and land right back on the roof when you're pulling it off. The rake is very simple and easy to use. The assembly is easy as long as you follow the manufacturer's instructions. My rake is in its fifth season, going strong, and performing well.
The only problem I had with it is the nuts and bolts in several sections came apart while using it, pretty much all at the same time during the first use. They just loosened up with use. It's important to tool-tighten them during assembly and recheck them occasionally. I contacted True Temper and asked for the measurements of the nuts and bolts so I could get more at a local hardware store. They were kind enough to send out a replacement pack at no charge. This rake really did a great job helping me fix some newly forming ice dams.
There are some really misleading answers to questions and reviews, which apparently are about a previous model. This model is accurately described, with a 3 piece telescoping oval handle that reaches 17’. It’s easy to use with mittens on and has several intermediate adjustments if that’s what the user needs. The lowest segment has a rough finish, making it easier to hold onto when wet. The segments do not come apart, so there is no need to “construct” the handle each time. It could not be easier to use.
The bend in the uppermost segment is exactly what it should be, so that the scraper part of the shovel easily rests against the roof, or in my case, the solar panels. One reviewer said that it was bent the wrong way and couldn’t be installed the right way. Wrong! It could be mistakenly installed either way (remember, I said the instructions are pretty poor), but using one’s head, it should be installed only the correct way.
Because self-locking hardware is used, I seriously doubt that it will come apart on its own, assuming that the assembly was done correctly. Perhaps the reviewer who said that the hardware was defective and loosened doesn’t understand self-locking nuts.
Except for the abominably deficient assembly instructions, this is an excellent roof shovel, and I would unhesitatingly buy another one if this one were to wear out or be damaged.
