Broom Broom Magic Broom is a two-in-one piece of cleaning equipment that will cut down the time spent on domestic chores.

Vacuum cleaners are designed to clean dust only. They are not useful for cleaning larger pieces of dirt. Brooms, on the other hand, while easily capturing larger articles, lack the performance of the vacuum cleaner in removing fine dust. What if we could gain both benefits from the one implement?

The Broom Broom Magic Broom combines two great benefits from the vacuum cleaner and the broom, to create a ‘vacuum broom’. Each hollow brush strand has an individualised vacuum hole at its base, through which dust is vacuumed while the brush strands sweep up the larger pieces of dirt.
