Quickie Bulldozer 24-Inch Multi-Surface Push Broom, 60" Wood Handle, Green, for Outdoor/Indoor Sweeping/Cleaning

This replaces an identical broom that I have finally worn out after 12+ years of heavy use. The description is incorrect though. The handle is made of steel, not wood.

I wanted a durable push broom for multiple surfaces and this seems like a great choice and value for the money. The brush head's bristles are mixed with a layer of green softer fine bristles surrounding black coarser stiffer bristle in the center of the head. The black bristles backup and support the green more flexible bristles as you are pushing debris with the broom. Then as small fine sized debris slips through the coarser stiffer bristles, it is caught in the second layer of green bristles to clean smoother surfaces. The bristles are all synthetic material which means they will not mildew if the broom is used for wet surfaces and put down wet. That also means they can be rinsed with a hose for cleaning after cleaning for example a concrete sidewalk or driveway before using the broom on a smooth clean floor like in the kitchen.The attachment of the handle took me a little time to figure out since there are no instructions included. There is a hexagonally broached socket on a brace that keeps the handle from twisting out of the socket the handle screws into. That shield/brace needs to be removed from the head and slid onto the threaded end of the handle before the handle is tightly threaded into the head. The socket is not threaded per-se, but has a heavy lug that engages the threaded end of the handle very tightly with lots of force. The handle needs to be rotated to align the hex opening of the shield/brace with the hex fitting on the handle. The handle takes so much force to thread in, that it should be very secure even without the locking shield/brace and yet with the heavy duty scraper on the top of the brush block the extra anti-rotation security of the shield/brace is like having a belt and suspenders. This Push Broom will outlast me!

Overall this is a good product. I would buy it again. I see many people saying it’s difficult to figure out how to get the handle inserted and tight. I agree. You will find a cap at the handle base “it snaps off.” It snaps on and then you can reattach it and snap it back on. It took me a minute to figure this out. Look at the base where you insert the screw part of the handle. Snap of the triangular looking cap at the insert base for the handle. Again, It took me a minute to figure this out, but that’s what you have to do. Snap it off it’s not going to break. As far as the quality of the push broom - It works in driveways, garages etc. It will adequately push leaves fallen onto your driveway, etc.

The broom does exactly what is says, it bulldozes everything in its path. The only grievance I have is that there are two huge holds on both the left and right edges of the broom that hold the handle of the broom once disassembled for storage. These are around two inches tall and sit on the far edges of the broom, and are not pictured in the main picture of the product. If you ever have to sweep under anything these will always get caught and make it difficult to use the broom. This is not an issue if you are sweeping a wide open floor with nothing around. But it you want to use this around furniture, shelves, or trims it is unusable. Would have been nice to have these holders more towards the center of the broom so at least the edges would be usable------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sept 2023 edit:Still using this thing after one year and it still bulldozes everything. I have no shame for the fact that I use it to clean every surface! Updating from 3 to 5 stars

Are you tired of having to pick up toys around the house, sweeping trying to get gunk out your floors when you rather be sipping on your wine(bacardi and root beer in my case) while reading your book or have that extra time to finally do your nails(unhealthy online shopping in my case)!!!!!! well this broom is for you!!! Affordable, mmmm kinda easy to assemble (once you realize you been doing it wrong), fast clean and best floor scrubber plus you can easily gather all the toys in one spot. Thats if you dont have carpet of course. Literally cleaned all the toys up and swept on a last minute thought it was so easy I had to leave a review! I also recognized the commercial tone this had so i had to title it. By the way I am a mom of 2 a 5 year old and 1.5 year old and married to a Tire Technician who works on every surface imaginable even at dump sites like,- ewww also to mention I live in a one bedroom apartment so the mess and dirt trails are really concentrated. wish I had a before picture....

We gets lots of snow here in Tahoe. Have a long wide brush is perfect for clearing snow. You get a soft smooth brush. Only use it for the car, not for anything else. Shouldn’t scratch anything you can’t buff out. You might need to be careful with the heavy snow. This gets the light snow off in seconds. Great time saver. Good for the price. Works great for sweating things too lol.
