"This is cute, handy, and durable, but the broom. Is a bit small (don’t expect the width of a standard kitchen broom)."
"Ingenious design, specifically the fingers on the top of the pan are perfect to get dirt, dust and debris that is stuck in the bristles of the broom off and into the dust pan."
"You can flip open the sturdy container with your foot, sweep in your stuff without bending, then flip up the container, which will stand on its own."
"I have mild back problems that make it difficult for me to bend over."
"I would buy this broom again in the future."
"See the picture..... the broom is very poorly made and it is Expensive!!!"
"The set works fine and does it's job but I found the handle on the broom to be a pain! No gripes about the dustpan, it works well, the edge sits flat to the floor so dirt doesn't get swept under it, unlike others I've tried. I can't even get through sweeping the floor because I'm constantly fixing the handle that won't stay in position."
The dustpan head pivots for easy storage and locks into place when in use for effortless and secure debris collection, emptying and transport. Black plastic duo-pan dust pan and lobby broom with Y clip.

For the complaints that the handle is too short, first one can go buy ANY painters extension pole and problem solved, but the reality is this broom isn't specifically made for sweeping an entire room or garage floor as you would use a typical broom, its generally more for spot sweeping. Only because the sweeping motion of the rubber bristle broom is awkward to sweep into a dustpan, so this little broom does just what I need it for."
"The bottom of the dust bin is flat and straight and seals nicely against the floor so all the dust goes in the pan and there are no annoying 'crumbs' left on the floor."
"Being pregnant and having to constantly clean up after my 4 little kids I needed something to make my job a little easier, after seeing a waiter in a restaurant use this I purchased one from Amazon when I got home."
"aaah man....Really looked forward to my new broom, wish I checked the length, I assumed it would be a little bit longer, this will work well for short people....not so much tall people."
"We use our regular size broom with it though and it attaches to it just fine."
"Broom bristles fanned out within a week, does not sweep up well in that condition, nor can you insert the broom into the dustpan when storing."
"I now have found Mr. Clean to make a much more user friendly version."
"Fine."
The broom has flagged bristles resulting in a larger surface area and a soft, feathered texture that effectively grabs dust and dirt.

I've just increased my rating to five stars because, in fact, I have become pretty excited about this broom. It turns out that it's so convenient to use that I wind up spot sweeping all the time, which means that my kitchen stays cleaner."
"I use it in the bathroom where we keep the catbox to sweep up litter that gets scattered by the furry little feet and it is adequate for that!"
"The brush fits in the bucket and it can all balance when the bucket is upright."
"I am ordering my second one of these sets."
"Broom and dustpan work well."
"Perfect solution to not wanting to pull out the 25' central vac hose for small messes like kitty litter scattered around the litter box or a small spill in the kitchen, or dirt tracked into the house."
"I'm really glad I purchased this item vs. others."
"Very comfortable, broom works well and everything seems to be well made."

"I also was very afraid to buy a whole new vacuum and spend hundreds of dollars on something that might just clog up and break when faced with all the hair we had here. I chose this broom because it is marketed specifically as a fur remover and because of the positive reviews describing it, so I'm here to add one more. I was very, very skeptical that the solution to my pet hair problem was something as ludicrous as squeegeeing my carpet, but the results are undeniable. If you are not fully able-bodied, or just aren't looking to work that hard to save the money, a powerful vacuum cleaner may still be your wisest choice. Personally, I plan to purchase a small 20 dollar shop-vac as a companion to this broom, especially because right now I have to just pick up the wads of hair with my hands. This should highlight the improvement in hair (And even some other debris) removal, as well as how the bristles where able to easily fluff back up a section of carpet that had been pressed down over many months by a heavy metal power strip."
"I own a boarding kennel and this is the only broom I use."
"Pros: extends to a little over 5ft, retracts to about 3ft, length of brush is easy to control(not too long), has two sides (brush for carpet, squeegee side for flat surfaces), worth $18. Cons: needs elbow grease ;), brush head occasionally needs to be tightened (depends on how I use it)."
"It's kinda gross how much hair it was able to get up, but obviously that was my fault, and this broom helped a sister out!"
"One would think a Miele and Eureka vacuum, Casabella, O’Cedar brooms, mops, pushers, pokers, a small microfiber weaving factory, and a leading brand’s blue rubber, nubby broom promising nirvana would obliterate the detritus from two tiny, short-haired, domestic kitties. One day blue rubber, nubby broom’s handle breaks."
"Today I didn't think the floor really needed to be swept, but the Furemover proved me wrong–I ended up with a big tumbleweed of dog hair and my hair and who knows what else?"
