Spring cleaning is not exactly an enjoyable pastime, and it does not help that our cleaning tools are so cumbersome to lug around and store -- all of this changes with the Poh Liang Hok broom, which is capable of standing by itself.
Instead of stooping to pick up a broom that had been laid onto the floor, or readjusting the handle as it begins to slide across the wall that it was propped up against, this broom is a no-fuss companion that can take care of itself. The genius design is minimalist and stylish, without complicated screws or compartments needed for the feature to work.
As one of those re-designs that are so obvious that you wonder how it was never thought of before, this broom has won the ‘Red Dot’ design award for its chic look and functionality—it is certainly well deserved.
