The Dapper Dustpan

When you think of a dustpan and broom, chances are you imagine a flimsy, plastic, unsightly object that you hide as far back in the closet as possible! The Alfred, however, is one you can be proud of! No, it doesn’t light up… or cheer you on… in fact, there’s really no new functionality at all. But it is durable, made of quality material, and just plain nice to look at.

Weeble broom wobbles but it wont fall down

There’s a design for a broom and dustpan out there that brings the two together in a way that not only keeps them one unit, but keeps them sitting upright as well. While a standard broom and dustpan require you to stand them up against a wall or they’ll go horizontal, the “Roly-poly Cleaner” by designer Salih Berk Ilhan [UPDATED!] is able to sit up without assistance.

What you’re looking at here is the same composure of plastics you’d normally be working with using a broom and dustpan. The difference here is the click-in nature of the two, together sitting upright and ready for your usage. When it comes time to sweep, just pull them apart.

UPDATE: designer is Salih Berk Ilhan, not “HYELIN Lee” as previously noted. As sometimes happens in our line of work, designers works are not properly attributed – in this case, it is certainly Salih Berk Ilhan who created the Roly-poly Cleaner (aka the Roly-Poly Dustpan and Broom, aka the RoPo!) We hope that those of you who have quoted Yanko at a source will make a change reflecting this update. Thank you!

How Does Your Broom Stand?

Does it lean against the wall or do you make it lie flat on the floor? Mine stands tall and handsome, and like any cheesy Hollywood flick, I use to mock croon a Madonna song! Jokes, aside, the Standing Broom is a clever redesign for the broom. It features a flat-head that locks to a ninety-degree angle and allows you to keep the broom standing independently, especially when you need to stow it. No more bending over to fetch the broom!
