Know before you buy
While some minor shedding is normal with natural fiber brooms during initial use, the sorghum fibers are bound securely with durable cotton cording to ensure longevity and minimal bristle loss.
Yes, the bristles are soft yet firm, making them gentle enough for hardwood floors while still providing the necessary tension to sweep up dust and debris effectively.
To keep the acacia wood in good condition, wipe it clean with a damp cloth after use and avoid soaking it in water. Periodically applying a food-safe wood oil can help maintain the finish and prevent the wood from drying out.
The broom is designed for versatility and can handle outdoor surfaces like concrete or patios. However, it is best suited for light to medium debris rather than heavy, wet, or industrial-sized messes.
No, the sorghum fibers are completely natural and pollen-free. They are harvested and crafted by artisans without the use of synthetic coatings or harsh chemical treatments.
