Here’s what some people have to say about the Gark:
Katharine Crouch, BBC’s Gardener of the Decade, says: "It is a tool that has so many uses, ideal for sifting my flints out for example and it's unbelievably lightweight too. As a gardener who is constantly working the land, it is one of those things that will be in constant use- just so practical and it will surely prove a boon to us back sufferers!“
A keen gardener:
‘Really very handy, I use it for everything’ ‘The Gark is my best friend; give me 3, fantastic to give as a gift’
A horse owner: ‘I live amongst a lot of horse lovers and they are all addicted to the Gark: ideal for the pasture, barge, paddock and stable’
A professional:
‘I work in the green sector (park services) and this is a great invention’ An older gardener, with rheumatism: ‘because it is so lightweight and because of the special design this is the only tool I can use in the garden’
A granny/babysitter: ‘I tidy up all my grandchildren’s toys from the carpet with it’
A neighbour: ‘The poop from the neighbour’s dog gets returned to the neighbour’

December 2, 2010: Superb tool really useful "Just received mine a few hours ago but already put to good use in digging my way out of the house, through the snow. Very light weight and easy to use but surprisingly robust, thank goodness. Looking forward to doing some real gardening with it."
December 2, 2010: Brilliant tool "This is proving very usefull with the snow! Scoops fresh snow easily and the long handle means that I can flick the snow onto the flower beds from a distance rather than having to walk back and forth. Easily lifts large lumps that have drifted by my car. I would not use it on frozen compacted snow. I have helped neighbours and it is much better than anything they have!I have also used it for leaves along with the 'Grabber' tool."
November 21, 2010: On par with a lulu handbag "It's not glam but its great. Managed to collect and easily bag loads of leaves and some cat presents. Easy cleans under the garden tap."
November 19, 2010: Fantastic! "I'm surrounded by trees and also have a protected oak in my garden. Lovely in the Summer ....... "leaf overload" in my garden in the Autumn! This rake is fantastic and a lot less hassle to use than the leaf blower I usually use. In no time at all I'd filled two wheelie bin bags with fallen leaves and my paths were clear.
I did "um and ah" about whether or not to buy it when I saw it on the television, but I'm so glad that I did. The oak is the only tree that's still got leaves on it and I'm no longer dreading clearing the garden when they fall.
My only regret is that I didn't have this rake last Autumn!"
September 29, 2010: A simple, yet effective tool "Simple - yet effective. A multi purpose tool for the garden"
