If there’s any downside, it’s that the height may be a bit too tall for some-and the handle isn’t adjustable. The 56-inch wooden handle is reinforced with wires for added strength.

How exactly does it work so well? The bristles are 100 percent broomcorn, a stiff, straw-like fiber that picks up dust or debris particles with minimal effort. The natural bristles are exceptionally heavy-duty-ideal for those tougher cleaning jobs both indoors and outdoors, like sweeping up leaves, a dusty garage, or your kitchen floor. But don’t sleep on this style, especially for places like garages or patios with concrete floors. The corn broom from O-Cedar is what you envision when you think about traditional brooms. But once you get it all sorted, you’ll have a cleaning tool you can rely on for dry messes both big and small.īroom Width: 11.2 inches | Handle Length: 52 inches | Weight: 3.25 pounds | Handle Material: Plastic | Bristle Type: Unflagged bristles The broom does also require some initial assembly that can be a bit perplexing. Just note: Because the dust pan is so wide, some users report difficulty emptying the pan into the garbage, particularly if they’re garbage is housed in a narrow pantry. Once it’s time to empty the dustpan, you’ll be impressed by the built-in comb teeth that make it easy to remove even the toughest messes-like hair!-out of the bristles. You can get the whole job done while standing, and because it’s only 3.25 pounds, you won’t tire as quickly during bigger jobs. The Yanxus broom and dustpan set is our top pick because the 52-inch broom has an impressively wide 11.2-inch brush head packed with four layers of soft and flexible, yet sturdy bristles that effortlessly sweep up everything in its path: hair, dirt, dust, and crumbs.
