Ashley and I just purchased a new household appliance: it’s a non electric, electric broom! It does everything I love about my vacuum cleaner, like cleaning the floor, but its near-silent operation means I can quickly clean up a spill even late at night, even if my upstairs neighbours aren’t nearly as considerate in their use of hot water. It’s efficient, manually operated, and best of all, it’s bagless, so it’s great for the environment!
