I've owned one of their 84" landscape rakes for years now. One of the things that I've learned about the cheaper implements from other venders, is that they don't seal the top of the tubes that can hold water in the winter; I've had a couple of implements from other manufacturers that had parts that filled with water and then froze causing the steel tubes to burst from the expanding ice. I've learned to look for this on new implements and drill a drain hole in any thing that can hold water. Food for thought.
I did buy the Tractor Supply Rake. Big Mistake! Ended up bending it. Took it back and talked with the manager and they told me this was the 3rd failed and returned this year(2017). All had the same failure. Purchased a Bush Hog 6' model. My use is raking my garden end of season and maintaining my driveway. Works great. Thanks for your videos...keep them coming!
Hi Kenny! Yes, I’ve heard some of the horror stories and seen a couple on CZcams. As I recall, one guy’s rake twisted like a pretzel just a couple minutes into a video he was making on the TCS rake. I think it snagged a big root. Thanks for watching!
Love Everything Attachments. If quality is what you're wanting you definitely get what you pay for. I have a 66" Box Blade from them and there is no comparison. To get a similar one from Landpride it would have been $200-$300 more, and it wouldn't have been as heavy. That's something else EA is good at giving you the best weight for what the implement does. Their ground engaging ones are robust and heavy, and attachments like their pallet forks are the lightest that I've found while still having great lifting capacity. Also I'm pretty sure with any painted implement you can request it be painted Orange or Green to match your preferred brand. Maybe with a small fee I can't remember. I only have the one attachment from them, but I'm looking forward to getting more stuff from them in the future. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
I've owned one for 4 years and it's everything you said. I have 3 other EA implements and all are the best. Should be buying item 5 this fall. Great folks, great products.
I bought the Tractor Supply 6’ Rake because I needed one that day for a project. While it has held up to everything I’ve thrown at it, I do wish it had the offset feature for exactly what you demonstrated. I use my rake for our gravel road for maintenance a lot! I only blade the road after a heavy rain storm. Thanks for the review!
Another great video. Thanks. I wanted to get one from EA, but they are 6-7 weeks out right now. Was able to get one right now from Rural King of fair quality discounted to $468. Once I finish my project if it has any issues I can order from EA and wait for it to come.
Thanks, JD! Yeah, that’s their normal lead time. It took that long when I got my rake, but I didn’t have to have it fast. Good luck with the Rural King rake!
I'm sold! I think I'm all set though for the driveway with the scraper blade and land plane. The rake looks great for your application! Thanks for sharing!
Hey there Martin!!! Landscape rakes are some nice!!! Getting a rugged one is a good idea too!!! I just got my rake last summer and I have used it a ton since then. It sure is ideal for touching up the lane and landing!!! Using it backwards is a great way to smooth the gravel like you say!! Take care!!!
@@DIYMyWay My pleasure; and it is now on the EA web site! :) Travis from EA commented, What an impressive, professional video. It may have just found its way to the EA website here: www.everythingattachments.com/Compact-Tractor-Landscape-Rake-p/eta-cmp-lr.htm
Enjoyed your review video! Really nice presentation. I agree about getting what you pay for when it comes to EA. Glad I found your channel. Aloha from Hawaii
I like this implement. I should get one! That would be the first implement I buy! Lol! There is nothing I can really do with the tines that would be economical. Thanks!
Thanks, John! Yep, it’s an excellent rake. You, my friend, certainly have a very good excuse for not being active on YT lately! That reminds me, I started watching your latest video and then got interrupted. I need to finish watching it! Hope you have a great weekend!
So as of 8/15/22, these are 1500 bucks for the 5ft, and another 500 bucks for guage wheels. So yeagh, considering tractor supply sells the light duty for 900 bucks now, it really seems like a hug price difference.
@@DIYMyWay thank you for making the video. I own a EA wicked grapple, it is a beast of a tool. I'm probably gonna just buy a EA version. But I need to pop up and clear rocks, so still not sure which is better for that, the rake or the box blade. My property is all rocks and roots. Until I fix that.👍
Not yet, but I have an area in the woods where I will likely be using it. It’s plenty tough and will have no problem doing the job. Thanks for watching!
how you do like the width so far? do you wish you went with the 84"...I'm debating between 72" and 84"...I will be picking up my first tractor next week, kioti ck4010se...
The 72” width is just right for the way I use it. The offset feature lets me swing the rake out 2’ to either side, which is great for rake gravel back from the sides of my driveway. Congratulations on getting your first tractor! You have a lot of fun ahead of you. Thanks for watching!
Thanks, Bryant! I covered the cost of the different length rakes in the video, but I’m sure they’ve gone up a lot since then, so I recommend you check their website.
Every time I look at everything attachment equipment and watch difference people use them it looks like everything is all High quality equipment. I not telling someone not to buy one from tsc, rural king , or store like that because if you are going to use it 1 time a year for about 30 minutes you may not want to buy one of these, but if you need one to really use and use it all the time and other equipment even if you are putting out a lot of food plots for hunting and maintaining trails , old logging roads, then these look like you buy it once and use it for a life time or till you buy a bigger tractor and need a bigger one.
You have a valid point. However, my caution was based on product reviews and CZcams videos complaining of the tine bar getting twisted, sometimes on the first use of it. Usually it involved hooking a rock or root near one end or the other of the tine bar. So I agree with you that the cheap rakes are fine for occasional use on root and rock free ground. Such a rake would not last long on my property, which is riddle with large rocks just under the soil. Thanks for commenting and for watching!
@@DIYMyWay oh man, this is awkward. (Kicks gravel) It was a joke sir, albeit not a very funny one. Type Joe Pera adult swim into your Google search bar if you are interested in the root of my query. I hope you have yourself a fine evening sir.
It's a shame EA is such a dishonest company. I just can't bring myself to give them any money. Check out their their serrated tooth bar video as an example.
Hi Dan! I disagree that EA is a fundamentally dishonest company based on my dealings with them. But I DO agree that their tooth bar video was terrible and unfair compared to others videos of theirs I've seen. In fact, I quickly ruled out their tooth bar and bought a Piranha tooth bar instead because of their video. I suspect that video has had the opposite effect than they intended. Thanks for watching!
@@DIYMyWay ask a few other CZcamsrs who dared to express any criticism of EA products and you'll see what I mean. TTWT and Dave Knows How are two examples I'm aware of. The toothbar video alone was enough for me. The fact that they are willing to do that shows lack of integrity.

I'm a big fan of everything attachments. They go out of the way to hook you up with the right stuff. Im speaking from a customer's stand point.
Me too, William. They make top notch equipment. Thanks for watching!

Yes, EA makes great products for sure. I'll be getting one of their rear blades before long. Thanks for watching!
Dennis Cantrell, good info on this,Thanks. 👍
Well done, I appreciate your supporting bullet items & graphics.
Thanks, Gene! And thanks for watching!

Hi Stephen! Yes, that offset feature was a must for me. Thanks for watching!
So, build your own offset attachment. Not that hard at all!
Very informative and well produced video. Thank you for your time!
Thank you for your kind words and for watching!
You have a great attitude/style/demeanor. Well done.
Thank you! I appreciate that!
After 2 years of use, that made for a very good review! Thank you!
Thanks! I generally like to wait a while before I review a product because it tells a much more complete story. Thanks for watching!

Yep, the prices of everything is sky high. Implements are no exception but $500 for gauge wheels?? That’s redonkulous! Thanks for watching!

Well done Martin! How long is your driveway? That rake does have a ton of nice features.Thanks for posting!
Thanks! I’d guess it’s 300 ft of gravel before the concrete part starts. Thanks for watching!
Hi keep up the great videos. Have you ever used the rake on a sandy beach?
Thanks! No, never have. Thanks for watching!
good review of the rake.
Thanks, Dave! I've really been happy with it. Take care!
Great video!
Thanks, Eric!
Have you used this to clean up the floor in the woods? Wondering if it will hold up to sticks branches and debris. Or do you have another suggestion?
Not yet, but I have an area in the woods where I will likely be using it. It’s plenty tough and will have no problem doing the job. Thanks for watching!

Any issues since producing the video? About to order the same model.
None at all. It’s built like a tank. Thanks for watching!
So Everything Attachments is no longer an option since EA is no longer open. Any ideas on a second choice.
I’m not aware of any other options as good as this. Thanks for watching!
I too avoid the cheaper Tractor Supply products because of the soft metal used by Chinese manufacturers.
How do you pick size? I have a compact Kubota and the list shows 5, 6 and 7 foot options.
If you have a B series then a 5 or 6 foot model is good. An L series can handle 6 or 7 foot rake. Thanks for watching!
Great video, how much is the rake?

As of 2/10/22 price is up to $1350
As of 2/18/22 the price shown online is $1630 for the 72”
