I live in Phoenix with a dirt backyard mixed in now and there with some small gravel. Will this work well on that surface? Thank you.

I don't expect it would work as well with gravel. The grass slides through the tongs but you might end up scooping up and losing some of your gravel. Worth a try based on the cheap price though. You can't really go wrong.

I would think it would work well. However, if the gravel is too big it will get stuck on the prongs.

yes I think it would work well. Small gravel would go through but it would catch the droppings.

I have found it to work very well on all surfaces. I and a Pro Handler and show breeder of boxers and this rake is one of the best I have found in the 40 years I have been doing this.

The tines are around 1.5 inches apart so I don't think there will be a problem. Of course this is dependent on how you define small.

Dirt and gravel, unless largely clumped, should sift right through the rake. I'd say yes. It should work good on that surface.

No it does not work of gravel or grass. You need to be on a surface where you can rock the "steering wheel" back and forth to keep it moving

I cleared a path for the dogs, and the trash with this and it was removing grass from the ground. It will certainly pick up gravel. You would have to be careful and tilt it back so it's not directly contacting the ground, which in turn, would leave a layer of snow/ice on your driveway.

I have a small cement driveway and cement sidewalk. It worked great unless you hit an uneven patch...but thats just my ground issue. Last year we had a horrible winter in the tri state area, and this was a god send especially when we had a large amount fall overnight.

It probably could, but only for loose gravel. It would be best to use a box scraper for that. You could add some weight to it and get a better result. When I add weight to mine, I just wire a wood pallet on top of it.

I think it would work fine. I have large gravel (likely larger than your driveway gravel) for my landscaping and it doesn't come close to moving it. You can also control how powerful the blower is by how far away from the ground you hold it.

I've never tried rocks or outdoor gravel, however, the only slight problem I could forsee is impeding the rocking motion. It should definitely be on a stable surface that is even and doesn't tend to sink into the ground.

I use it on a combination of pavement and dirt/pine needles/grass. You need more muscle in the dirt but the tires are plenty big enough and easy to manuver. I would expect it to work in grass just fine. Be prepared to use more strength though. My boat is 3500 lbs as a reference. 20 ft open bow fiberglass.

It depends how rough the dirt or gravel is, I don't recommend it, unless for a very short distance. Best on even pavement. The 8"wheels are greatest selling points to me.

Yes, the wheels are large enough so that they should work find on packed dirt. Gravel would be more difficult however

Works good on dirt, for Sand you would need a set of paddle tires which are designed specifically for sand. Other wise it will probably just keep getting stuck.

It's very small I don't think it would work well on grass or gravel. We used it in the house or on black top.

I do not anticipate any problems using the ramps on pea gravel. It might be a different story with 3/4" rock. I would anticipate problems driving a rear-wheel vehicle onto the ramps, as the ramps will tend to 'spit out'. Front-wheel drive vehicles should be fine.

No, it should work but I would suggest using a corded drill because it takes a lot of power to auger the dirt unless it is very loose.

I would not trust this to move dirt and rocks. They do make another plow that is a bit more expensive for that. Your local tractor dealer should have it or be able to order it.

I don't think it would be great on asphalt/gravel. It works great on flat cement, but I don't think the wheels will grip well on anything loose.

I would say it's not suitable for loose gravel. Ideal for smooth concrete and tarmac surfaces.
