Q: How is this different from a regular broom?
A raking motion, similar to a lint brush pulling fibers off fabric, pulls debris out of cracks and crevices that a standard broom's flat sweep skips over.
PH153 - Fusselschreck Outdoor Broom

If the unusual design doesn't catch your attention, the name certainly will. The German words fussel schreck suggest it "frightens" dirt – an apt description for these surprisingly effective brooms.
Used in a raking motion, they are particularly useful when sweeping rough or uneven surfaces; the aggressive curve of the bristles grabs dirt out of cracks and crevices that a regular broom skates right over. The telescoping metal handle is adjustable from 32” to 56” long and joins to the brush head with a European-threaded metal ferrule. Its hang loop is convenient for storage.
The outdoor broom has a 16” wide head for jobs such as sweeping driveways or interlock patios. It even cleans fine gravel out of doormats. The indoor version has an 11 1/2” wide head that gets into tight spaces and around obstacles, with short, thin bristles for sweeping up dust and debris on all types of floors.
Made in Germany. Highly recommended.

Yes, the telescoping metal handle extends from 32" to 56" to suit your height or a tight storage spot.
This is the indoor version, with an 11 1/2" wide head and short, thin bristles sized for dust and floor debris in tight spaces; a wider 16" outdoor head is also available for driveways and patios.
Thread the handle into the head's metal ferrule until snug; it detaches the same way for compact storage.
