Whichever broom you decide on should be easy to set up before use. Some brooms have extendable handles that are perfect for anyone that may struggle with mobility. The head should attach easily to the handle without the worry of it falling off mid-sweep. Storage YANXUS Broom & Dustpan [Best Broom & Dustpan Combo for Dog Hair]: Need a complete brush-and-dustpan solution for your dog’s hair? This model will fit the bill perfectly, and it features rubber “teeth” to make subsequent hair removal easy. This rubber broom is extremely versatile — you can use it on your hardwood and tile, as well as carpets for removing dog and cat hair alike, as the fur is instantly drawn to the tiny bristles.

Most people use their rubber broom for both indoor and outdoor tasks, so we recommend a broom of around 30-35cm. Handle Length After the house was overrun with hair, I used one broom to clean before waiting another 4 days to let the hair build up again. Each broom was graded on how well it swept hair from each surface – I even tested some brooms on my couch!

The $8 rubber broom from Kmart has mums singing its praise.

Type of bristles. Brooms with long, flexible plastic bristles are a great choice for hard floors. So are brooms with short rubber or silicone bristles, which also work pretty well on short-pile carpets. For deep-pile carpets, a carpet rake broom is best at lifting out pet hair. Twist the knob at the bottom of the handle, and these extend out, allowing you to sweep up dog hair.

So I explored further. I took the rubber broom all the way around the kitchen floor and discovered that this is, without question, the absolute best broom I have ever used on the combination of hard floor and dog hairs. Head Size: Smaller head size can be more convenient for reaching cumbersome spaces whereas wide broom heads can handle large areas with ease. This can help you clean the windows that your dog likes to put his nose up to, or it can help you clean up pee puddles when you’re house-training your puppy. Where do I start? Yes it’s a broom but it actually works! It really does collect the dust and dog hairs which now do not float across the wooden floor. It actually pulls the hairs out from the carpet - much better than our vacuum cleaner that shouts from the rooftops how it offers the best suction (at over inflated prices). It’s light and easy to carry around the house too." Before, I used to pull out my old clunker of a vacuum, attach the “dog hair” attachment, and listen to its obnoxiously loud hum as it worked overtime to clean a small area of hair. Combine this with my dog trying to play with the vacuum every time it comes out and this chore soon gets old – especially when vacuuming daily to keep up with your molting pup.
