YEELOR

Telescopic handles, two shelves

YEELOR is on two hand-tool shelves here with variants of the same idea: a wide head on a telescopic stainless handle.

The useful thing about both listings is that they state the extended length in centimetres. “Adjustable” on a long-handled tool is a word rather than a specification, and the difference between a handle that reaches 130 cm and one that reaches 165 is the difference between bending and not.

The head widths are stated too, and on a rake that is the figure that decides how long the job takes.

The second of the two is described as both a scarifying rake and a lawn rake, which is the recurring vocabulary problem on these shelves: one German word covers a machine that cuts through thatch with powered blades and a hand tool that combs the surface. This site keeps them on separate shelves — powered machines on the scarifier shelf, hand tools on the aerator and rake shelves — and says which is which on each page.
