QuickieBulldozer Garden and Patio Outdoor Angle Broom, Black/Red, Clean Heavy Debris/Rocks/Mulch/Brick, Clean with Hose, Outdoor Sweeping, Steel Handle (7576ZQK)

The broom’s bristles are stiff and strong, which is ideal for sweeping our porch and patio of leaves and dirt. I had been looking for a long time at hardware stores, online and in person, and all of the “outdoor” brooms had bristles that were too soft for our needs. Very happy with this purchase.

i needed a broom that could clear packed snow, broken ice, residual road salt and general debris from around my apartment building.the price made me a bit leery because Home Depot and Lowe's have "similar" but 1, their prices were over $20, and 2, the bristles were nowhere near as firm as i needed. so i bit the bullet, cried once and paid twice for 2 of these brooms.i am so glad i did. these thing are sturdy and they made a 2 hour job get done in 30 minutes.now the reason i bought two is that if one breaks, then i have a spare and even then the spare is used for just for inside duty. which i took it to my carpet's high traffic areas after i vacuumed and while the bristles are firm and tough enough for outdoor use, they're still pliable enough and fine enough to aggravate carpet to loosen and thereby allowing my vacuum cleaner to get more dirt up and out.now to the down points.1. the packing. each broom was delivered separately in a cardboard box measuring 5 feet long, 14 inches wide and 8 inches deep.don't get me wrong, i sincerely appreciate the care for product but i checked with my local post office, UPS store and FedEx local. in one box there literally is enough room that 3 to 4 brooms could fit and still packed securely. for me to ship an item like the items were shipped to me would have been as low as $30 to as high as $50. for each broom.down point number 2...dang there isn't one.but in a nutshell, this is a great item, at an OUTSTANDING price. i highly, HIGHLY, would recommend it for others to purchase.

So I bought this because I mean for 6.99 you can afford the risk and if it doesn't work for indoor well then you have a nice outdoor broom. But really...why are you sweeping outdoors anyway? That's where the dirt comes from... >..<It's declared to be an outdoor broom and some reviews that have chosen not to read decided to leave bad reviews for their lack of thoroughness and imagination. I say CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY! If you want this to be an indoor broom, so be it! I am using it indoors. Is it stiff? Yes. Is it sturdy? Yes. Apparently indoor brooms are supposed to bend, hence why everyone's brooms develop that Fanned Out "Flip" look. They are brooming too hard. This broom yes, it is stiff. BUT if you are like me and have a lot of cat litter or tracks of dirt from the outside or food crumbs from your kids this is a great option! Not only does it sweep up efficiently (little learning curve with the bristles but who cares?) but the angled edge helps with hard to reach corners. It also makes for a great air guitar. Bottom line: BUY IT!!!!

Broom has very stiff bristles, exactly what I was looking for. Good quality.

I bought this broom as an alternative to traditional husk garden brooms, which I find don't last and are not stiff enough. This broom is great for concrete walkways or patios. It is a very stiff broom and I didn't like it on our wooden deck but it was perfect for our concrete patio. If you're looking for a traditional garden broom I don't think you will like this as it's difficult to be delicate with it. If you're cleaning up a work site or giving a really good clean to you patio, it's great.
