Garden hand rake Bosch 06008B5700 — width 8.7 cm, green/black

Compact garden hand rake Bosch 06008B5700 — width 8.7 cm, green/black is a small, lightweight tool designed for precise close-up gardening tasks. Its narrow working width allows for accurate soil leveling, weed removal, and compost spreading in confined areas such as flower borders, potted plants and small beds. The tool combines a compact head with an ergonomically shaped handle to provide control and reduced hand fatigue during repetitive light tasks.

Advantages

The Bosch hand rake offers a slim working width of 8.7 cm that enables precise access between plants and tight spaces. Its compact construction and light weight make the tool easy to manoeuvre for fine-detail gardening. The combination of a sturdy tine arrangement and a comfortable grip improves control when loosening soil or removing weeds close to roots, while the green and black finish provides visual contrast for easy identification in the garden.

Suitable for

• Leveling and smoothing soil in small beds and borders
• Removing weeds and debris around plants and pots
• Spreading compost or soil amendments in confined areas
• Preparing seed rows and small planting sites

How to use

Hold the Bosch hand rake by its handle and position the tines near the soil surface. Use short, controlled strokes to loosen compacted soil, remove shallow weeds, or spread compost evenly.
