What Is a lawn and garden roller?

 

 

 

A lawn and garden roller is a simple device with a large, heavy cylinder and a pulling or pushing arm, designed to flatten or even out a lawn.

Although solid rollers exist, contemporary rollers are frequently hollow and need to be filled with water or, occasionally, sand, to give them extra weight. This gives versatility as they can be used hollow or filled. 

The  roller can be manually pushed or pulled over a lawn or attached to a ride-on mower or lawn tractor.
