FAQs

What surfaces is this broom best suited for?

The Red Gorilla Standard Corn Broom is best suited for dry, hard, and smooth surfaces such as concrete, tiles, packed earth, and wood. It is ideal for use in stables, yards, garages, and on patios.

How do I assemble the broom?

The broom handle screws into the broom head. Simply align the threads and twist the handle until it is firmly attached to the head.

Is the broom head biodegradable?

Yes, the corn head of the broom is biodegradable, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

Can I use this broom for wet spills?

While it can sweep up loose debris from spills, it is not designed for effectively cleaning up liquid spills. It is primarily for dry sweeping.

How should I store the broom?

To ensure longevity, store the broom upright in a dry location. Avoid leaning it on the bristles, as this can cause them to bend or deform.

Will the bristles get softer over time?

Yes, natural corn bristles are designed to soften with use, which can improve their flexibility and sweeping performance on different surfaces.

What are the dimensions of the broom?

The broom has a handle length of 120cm. The overall dimensions are approximately 25cm in width and 157cm in height.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose

Ensure the handle is securely screwed into the broom head. Re-tighten if necessary. Check for any debris obstructing the threads.

Bristles are stiff and not sweeping effectively

Natural corn bristles may be stiff initially. Use the broom on a rougher dry surface or lightly dampen the bristles (and allow to dry) to help them soften with use.

Excessive shedding of bristles

Some initial shedding is normal. Continue to use the broom, and the shedding should reduce. Gently brush the broom head to remove loose fibers.

Broom used on wet surface

Allow the broom head to dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat. Avoid storing when damp to prevent mold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Red Gorilla Standard Corn Broom comes with a screw-in handle. Align the threads of the handle with the corresponding threads on the broom head and twist until securely fastened. Ensure the handle is firmly attached before use.

Compatibility: This broom is designed for use on a variety of dry, smooth surfaces. It is most effective on hard floors, such as those found in stables, yards, garages, and on patios. It is not recommended for wet surfaces or for use on carpets.

Care: To maintain the broom's condition, shake out excess dirt and debris after each use. Store the broom upright in a dry place, away from moisture, to prevent the corn bristles from molding or degrading. Occasional brushing of the bristles can help remove matted debris. The handle can be wiped clean with a damp cloth if necessary.
