Cleaning equipment can be notoriously difficult to store. Long handled items easily fall over or become entangled; dustpans and brushes can become separated from each other and exposed bristles and mops can transfer dust and dirt onto the inside of cupboards and other stored items.

This smart dustpan and brush comes with a dust-shield holder that can be mounted to the wall and fully encloses the head of both the brush and the pan, keeping everything around it cleaner. The pan includes a rubber front edge for coping with uneven floor surfaces and a stepped lip to keep dirt inside.

To use, simply remove from the holder, unclip the brush and sweep up as normal. The brush features soft, feathered bristles, which collect dust more effectively and are angled at the front for getting into corners.
