We were impressed with how fast it got here. Honestly, we were doubtful that this was gonna be worth the money. After getting quotes of $1000 to fix our severely worn gravel drive we thought we’d give it a try.

My husband and I bought your Driveway Groomer a few weeks back. I will be telling ALL my friends and neighbors:-). is a blessing indeed! Thank you for your wonderful, economical product. In today’s day of everything being made cheaper and not doing what you hoped it would, The Driveway Groomer Jr. (which I didn’t even attempt with that little motor). I am sure it will be even quicker with 2 or 3 blocks on and the ability to use the Riser Plate. I am looking forward to getting a larger John Deere with 25 HP or so. (add the $50 I pay the farmer with his box scraper and we are at $400 for the day). At $350 a load, you could say this little guy paid for itself today alone. I also was able to pull a good bit of gravel that had collected over the last 10 years back on to my driveway by angling it a bit. In one hour or so, I had all the bad spots fixed, took the block off and went up and down a couple of times with nothing on it just to smooth it over. My little 14 HP 23 year old John Deere 240 didn’t have enough in it to pull it with 2 blocks, but did quite well with one block. I had a little trouble with the hitch and modded it with larger washers. It took me an hour to put it together and it went together perfectly. It already was bad from last week’s rains. We had 1.2 inches of rain yesterday and 1.1 during the night, so my driveway was a mess. arrived today here in TN! That was quick and the timing was perfect. They look like fine products, but for a guy who needs 700 feet of gravel driveway scraped 8 or 10 times a year I thought I would take a chance on The Driveway Groomer Jr. I did LOTS of research and almost spent $1400 on the DR product and then looked at Lil’ Spike and The Gravel Rascal also which are much more.

The Riser plate worked excellent on moving the loosened material and leveling it out in the low spots and potholes and the best part is it cost less than 1/3 the cost of a professional and I can use it year after year to keep my driveway looking new!Ī few words and pictures about your product. The Original Driveway Groomer did all the work.

This groomer worked AWESOME! In Less than an hours’ time my driveway was back to brand new condition and I had ZERO loads of material delivered. A couple days later it arrived and I put it together to give it a try. Without much looking on the internet I came across the Driveway Groomer and looked it over and thought this very well could do the job? I ordered the unit and it shipped right out the next day.

After receiving 4 quotes back all in the $1600.00 range and all had said that they would have to bring in 2-3 dump trucks full of material to do the job I decided that I needed to do something different. Our findings highlight the importance of both political institutions and policy choices in mediating global shocks.Last fall I was looking at fixing my 160’ long driveway before winter and went out to several professionals to get quotes on getting the job done. To the extent that climate change will make many developing countries more dependent on food imports, and that prices could rise and be more volatile, we suggest another vector by which climate change may affect political unrest. The findings have longer-run implications. Relative to autocracies, democracies pursue policies that are more favorable to the rural sector and less favorable to the cities. We show that this is due both to the more permissive political opportunity structure in democratic systems and to systematic differences in food policy across regimes of different types. Drawing on a dataset of urban unrest in 55 major cities in 49 Asian and African countries for the period 1961–2010, we find the effect of global food prices on protests and rioting is contingent on regime type: democracies are more prone to urban unrest during periods of high food prices than autocracies. Anecdotal evidence of riots during the global food price spikes of 2007––11 raises the more general question of whether global food prices affect patterns of contentious politics in developing countries. The 2014 IPCC report concludes that changes in precipitation and temperature could cause global food prices to nearly double by 2050.
