5.0 out of 5 stars Way more than I bargained for...., February 13, 2010

I can't believe I am writing a review for a broom and dustpan. But everytime I use it I can't believe any broom/dustpan could make sweeping/cleaning up easier...I mean how hard was it to begin with?

It is well made, solid but not heavy, easy to pivot/flip, and the best part is the lip lays so flat and angled to the wood floor that there is nothing left on the floor when you sweep it into the pan. No "line" of dust or particles etc.

The "line" of leftovers was such a lifelong accepted annoyance that it never occurred to me there could be a dustpan that doesn't require you to sweep the stuff in from three directions and several angles before you get it all. But this one leaves nothing behind. It's also a deep, big dustpan that can take it all without being emptied until you are finished.

The broom is smaller than I would have thought or usually bought but I was also surprised by how much easier and more efficient it is to use a smaller broom. You can get into any place with it, dustballs from behind furniture don't stick to it, they drop right into the bin without leaving behind the "yuck" that you need to use a paper towel to pull off after sweeping everytime.

No bending
No dirty/dusty hands from holding the pan
No picking or wiping up the line of dust/debris that can't get into the pan
No pulling off dustballs from the broom at the end
No getting dusty and dirty because it's all from a distance
No losing the broom or pan...getting one from the laundry room where they both belong and one from the porch where it was last used...they stay together with a snap
No emptying two or three times because it's not deep enough or what's in it falls forward when you bend over and angle it to get the next line of debris. Since it gets everything without having to angle it toward the floor, nothing falls forward when you move to the next spot to sweep.

I never thought sweeping up was such a pain in the butt until I used this and found out how many times I used to bend over, wipe up with a rag, make multiple trips to the garbage, sweep every pile 3-5 times at every conceivable angle etc...I am so glad my husband stepped on the old plastic dustpan and cracked it so I could find out how quick and easy this one is compared to my old one which apparently was horrible on the dustpan scale - while I thought all dustpans were alike - NOT SO!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love the size, September 13, 2008

Love the extra large size of this dustpan. The broom is cheap, but didn't buy it for the broom. Dustpan is great for those who need to stand to use dustpan. The pan is a lot larger than expected, but is great for sweeping up big messes. Also love the stability of the pan. Doesn't flop all over when the pan is full, like some others I have had. Highly recommend!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Standard dustpan with very tiny broom, September 7, 2008

This review is from: Quickie 429 Flip Lock Dustpan and Broom (Lawn & Patio)

I gave this product 2 stars because the broom is about 3 feet high. Why they couldn't include a standard broom is beyond me. Another problem I had was that within a year of use, the elastic on the edge of the dustpan began to tear.

There are better dustpan/broom alternatives available.

I wouldn't recommend the product.
