20160045093 | Bromop - The invention relates to a manually operable floor cleaning tool. I have found the most effective way to clean floors is by hand with a wet cloth. The unique design of the Bromop enables a wet cloth to be used effectively without the user having to bend or kneel to do so. Additionally, previous similar inventions such as the Swiffer are improved by incorporating a broom head and dustpan into the design, and using re-useable cleaning cloths instead of disposable cleaning wipes. Water consumption is a concern for many people throughout the world and the Bromop requires on average 95% less water to clean the same amount of square footage compared with sponge mops. Laminate flooring is prone to warping when it gets wet and the Bromop eliminates that issue by leaving minimal water on the cleaned surface after cleaning, which in turn lowers the required dry time. | 02-18-2016 |
