A broom is one of life's necessities because it's hard to keep things in
order without one. The purpose of any broom is to transform a thin layer of
debris into an easily disposable pile, or it can simply move dirt and debris out
of the way. In doing so, a broom becomes a model of mechanical efficiency and a
metaphor for handling life’s difficulties—if only every problem could be brushed
aside so easily. A broom is a simple thing, and that's part of its beauty. Its
basic design of a head and handle can be transformed so it meets a wide range of
requirements and working conditions. Read on, and you may be surprised how each
product is designed to meet the challenges of dealing with dirt.
