The handle on the shovel is way too low for an average-sized person. I’m 5’7” and would have had to stoop every time to pick it up. I returned it for this reason. The shovel itself looked good. The rake design was odd, not sure what it would work well on because the gaps are large between the tines. I’d say, if you are short, go for it and use your own small rake with it, then I think it would be good!

Perfect for the job at hand

The Horze Stable Butler has been very helpful because using a manure fork bothers my back. I think the rake handle could be a bit longer, ideally. Maybe it could even telescope so that users could decide how long they need it to be. In any case, this set has become an essential.

Makes cleaning much easier, wish the handle was longer but besides of that good quality and durable.
