Honestly your tests kinda confirms what I was already sort of thinking.

Thanks for doing a comprehensive review like this, you're awesome!
This is why we need you. I don’t understand how these products “work” so well on the TV ads, but this is the reality of how they really work. I’ve learned (the hard way) to always, ALWAYS read the reviews and check out the seller if possible. For some unknown reason, I always believe the freaking ads. One thing I’ve learned- if it’s shipping from China, don’t buy it. I KNEW that soy sauce was going to streak! So bottom line, I’ll keep my corn stalk broom, and my Swiffer wet mop. Has anyone ever mentioned you look like a younger version of Daughtry?
My guess as to why you believe the tv ads is you think "Maybe this will be the product that actually does what they say it does." Hope springs eternal.
@@andrejbb2323 not only that, but you’re lucky if you get it at all, and if you do, it takes months - not weeks. I ordered a thermometer on Amazon, not realizing it was coming from China - 3 months later, I still didn’t have it so thankfully Amazon credited back my account. It arrived 2 months after that - broken. Another time I didn’t get the merchandise and had to involve PayPal. Now I pay attention to where it’s shipping from - although I recently bought a new iPad. There was no going to the Apple store to get it - it had to be shipped. I ordered it in early July but didn’t get it until early September - it shipped from China! I never would have thought that!
Because a real Squeegee costs money to make, and the company is clearly to cheap to do that. I'm sure that would work better, but I still think a traditional broom is a much better idea. That design in general just doesn't work well in circumstances that aren't perfect for them. Kind of like how the cracks between the tiles messed up the whole thing. Brooms work great and don't have that problem.
I bought this broom, there’s no magic…it’s a fail. I received one head and only ONE piece of the 3-piece handle. 🙄 I should have waited for your review!
I'm glad you recognize the reality of it. The broom handle snapped off after just a few weeks of use, and we luckily had a screw handle that fit perfectly and still use it. I hate it but my mom still thinks it's a good product....if it were sturdier and better quality, it might be worth replacing your bristled broom for this, but in reality its a cheap piece of junk.
True, except I did see one guy that bought an electronic item that was DOA and he received no response from the seller after weeks of repeated support requests, yet he still gave the product 3 stars! Not kidding. That's like giving a 3-star review to a mugger. I wasn't sure whether to hate or feel sorry for this buyer, so I did both, but wondered exactly what a seller would need to do to deserve less than 3 stars from them. "This toaster burned down my house and the seller kidnapped me and buried me alive after I requested a refund. 2 stars." 1-star and 5-star reviews are mostly by people that have no clue what they're talking about, so it's fine to ignore them.
@@antibrevity same with yep ppl say the food was good an the service was great an give a 1 star lol or ppl say food was bad an they got sick an give them 5 stars I guess ppl don’t know how the stars work
"Only pay attention to three star reviews. Five stars are not applying critical thought, one star reviewers have an agenda" That has been attributed to Mark Twain. Who ever said it, I agree. Especially when it comes to clothes.
I often give five star reviews. If I get a product that does as it claims, isn't broken, and I don't have to lemon-rig it from the box, I'll give it five stars. But I certainly list the flaws, as well; and the stars begin to drop when I have issues with the product.
Tip, when using a squeegee on windows move in a S pattern across the window, side to side from top to bottom. Much faster, more efficient and you can reach more surface area this way.
I have a new wool area rug that "sheds" like crazy. I thought maybe the 'magic' broom would be great for working all the newness out of the rug. Glad I watched this first. Saved me anywhere from $10 - $23. Thanks! I'll keep searching for my wool shedding sweeper - and no, I don't want to get the vacuum out every day for this.
I already have one magic broom, use it together with a mop. I pretty like it because i always do double cleaning for the floor. For me magic broom are good to pick up cat fur, hair and dusk on mozaic (i wet the broom in advance) . After that it is less burden to mop the floor because most dirts already wiped. And i prefer magic broom compared to regular because it is light. 😊😊 I believe the suitability are different for every person
Thank you for this review! I saw the "magic broom" and thought about getting it because my kitty likes to spread litter around her box... I'll stick to my whisk broom or vacuum. 😁👍
I waited to watch the review and am so thankful I did. Thank you for your honest, helpful review! To the rest of you who left good review, I decided to keep my bank account in tact as it is and leave the cleaning to the old broom which has proven over and over that it can't be totally replaced yet.
You're going to drag that big thing out when you can use something simple and light? You only use the vacuum when all the other things you've tried don't work. 😁
I'm so glad i found your channel again, lost you there for a while. You do such a great job in letting us know if products are worth buying. Thank you so much, it's appreciated! 👍👏👏👏⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
So my kitchen has a granite type of tile. Have you come across a product you like the best? I was looking for some type of vacuum broom... But I haven't seen any favorable reviews
My parents use the furwell (although that's not what it was called when they bought it) for cleaning their outdoor windows. They don't have close to the ground windows so it works pretty well.
Can you do a review of the new Shark Vertex as a follow-up to the older one that was beaten by Baily's hair. It has a new "brush", that doesn't have bristles, and claims no hair wrap.
Apparently the Furwell now has a similar model to the one tested here have you tried that one? It was available on the link you posted for the Furwell broom.
I love these videos. Liked and subbed. When I first seen a thumbnail I thought it was Joseph Peter Pantoliano from the Matrix telling me about some magic broom. Like your tone and pace during the reviews, and the fact that you compare with other as seen on TV products, or just other generic products you have laying around. Keep up the awesome videos.
Is grout expected to be perfectly level with the tile surface? Seems obvious that a squeegee couldn't possibly be expected to work with that surface, because it's simply not flat, new grout or not.
This reminds me of how crappy the Swiffer Wet Jet is. It is CONSTANTLY leaving stuff behind for me to clean up with a paper towel/toilet paper later despite using it on a regular basis.
@Richard Forester . I don’t have a Wet Jet but I use the wet mop pads. Frankly, Swiffer does a great job of grabbing the dirt, but the mop pads leave stuff behind as well. When I change the pad, I scoop up what the pad left with the mop pad itself. I have a rotator cuff torn beyond repair, so the Wet Jet is too heavy for me. I really had to struggle with throwing away the mop pads, but my reality is that it’s getting harder to be environmentally conscious since the car accident.
@@deborahjeanne2141 Sorry to hear of your rotator cuff injury Deborah! I had a Wet Jet in my previous house and it worked flawlessly as I recall. The one I have now is cheap, junky plastic that picks up very little and leaves much behind. I have to clean that up with a paper towel, cloth towel or toilet paper. Very disappointed in how this product has evolved. Anyway, lots of luck to you!
@@richard1113 thanks Richard. I guess I’m so used to using the paper towel I don’t even think about it anymore, but it really is extra work. I really liked the Shark steam mop, but it was just too heavy for me. But overall, the quality of everything sucks today. Doors, cupboards, bathroom fixtures, furniture, appliances - the quality was much better back in the 50s. Oh sure, progress has improved many things - we’ve gone from the “icebox” to a fridge that can give you a glass of cold water and automatically gives you ice cubes or crushed ice. Today’s cars can practically drive themselves, and are loaded with options Henry Ford most likely never dreamed were possible, but that’s not the same as quality. I bought my first microwave in 1985. It was simple - no spinning plate inside, no major brand name. It lasted 30 years! I bought a Kenmore to replace it - kenmore has a good reputation, right? It stopped working after 3years. That’s what I’m talking about. My mother still has her GE dryer from 1969. I bought my first dryer in 1978 - I just bought my 3rd dryer 2 years ago -and the enamel is peeling on the drum. Gosh, you’d think I was buying stuff made in China!
Best Broom for dog hair at my house is a Roomba robot vacuum. Mine is one of the first models they made (bought at Circuit City no less) and it is still going strong.
to be fair even regular brooms leave dirt behind when you lift it to sweep a new area, thats why when you sweep a pile of dirt towards you , you shoukd tap it on the floor next to the dirt pile before u pick it off the floor to sweep a new area
James your quality of content (and your subscriber count) are getting huger and higher!! I love the new background and this looks like maybe a new camera? Or maybe it just looks better on my TV
I have one similar to that one. It's handle is very short, so it kills my back. And I have a very small one room house, so there's not much floor space to sweep. It does pretty good at sweeping up cat hair, but I have tile floors, and it makes that horrible squeak sound when using it. 😖 What I was hoping to find out in this video, is whether or not it's better to wet the squeegee before sweeping, or leave it dry? I've tried both ways, but wasn't sure if I was doing it properly when wet. It left smears on the floor, so im guessing it's better dry. Was just curious to see how you used it.
Thanks for your review. You saved me my time and money. I had planned to buy this to try to make my life easier. Now after this video, that would be a big hell now.
Oh boy! No thanks for either! The magic broom seemed to press the gritty coffee grounds into the flooring I could hear it. Afraid that would scratch my hardwood floors. BTW, I was not put off by the Starbucks test--ha ha ha. Neither seemed to do the trick well on pet fur. Think I'll keep using my electric stick broom--even on carpet (it picks up beagle hair quite efficiently until I do a real vacuuming). Thanks for another fine and fun test!
Did James move or in the process of moving? It’s the second video I’ve caught lately that some of the video isn’t at his house but at some other location
Hi you have alot of videos so i dont know if there is a way to search for a particular vid so hopefully you can tell me if you done a vid on the "deli pro kitchen knife"
Are you moving into an apartment James? Or maybe it's one of your kids. Can't imagine Bailey loosing the yard. Edit: Saw your Twitter post that this is a rental for your show. Gotta say part of the charm has been able to get a glimpse of your home. Kind of will miss it.
Yep. I wondered with the last video too. Perhaps it's a empty model home. Can you imagine walking into one of them, and asking " why does it smell like soy sauce in here?" 😂
That was my first thought about it lol. I just now saw an ad for it today but I wasn’t so convinced. Ha ha. How flimsy the “finger parts” seem like. I have the furwell also so I guess I’m gonna carry on with that for now. Now I’m thinking of using the shower squeegee for windows tho. Impressive. 😅😅 I don’t mind the lightweight handle but the bottom would need to be more rigid. I like the idea of it being ultra lightweight and shaped like a broom and the size of a broom tho. But looks to me like a cheap broom would do just as good. My single complaint about the furwell is just how awkward it is in tight spots or corners. Well and just the fact that you have to switch to a broom to scoop it all up anyways in the end. But it does a fine job with broader areas and really grabs pet hair quite well. I also wonder how it would do if someone sprayed Pam on it before they cleaned up. 😅😅
4:16 is it just me or does it fell like he’s using camera tricks to make it look worse? Like he’s zoomed in for the magic broom so you can see every detail but with the green one he’s zoomed out so you can only see the general picture
Youshould make more comparison between high price and cheap price gadget and stuff. i very like this kind of videos and i see theyare the most popular on your channel too :D
I use the furwell to mop my floors, spray and wet floors very well. Scrub clean with the brush side, and squeegee the water straight out the back door o the likes.
Those little $10 car squeegees, like the kind you see at gas station pumps. Those actually work really well. But like anything else, after time they wear out and have to be replaced. The ones at the gas stations tend to be crap because the amount of use they get in a short period of time. If you get one brand new at Home Depot, it will work really well for many years before having to replace it.
Yes yes yes!!! I've been wanting you to do this broom I've started buy several times so thank you 😊 hope it works as good if not better than say. 😄 Edit....well yeah that worked as well I thought which is why I didn't buy it. I do know they have lil more expensive ones so wonder if a lil sturdier but I doubt it!! 🤔 thanks again for saving me money and time. Don't have a lot of either and so to waste it isnt an option. Have a great wknd XO 😉
The "magic" of this broom is that it magically takes money from your bank account.

I like how you cleaned the window multiple times before using the magic broom to leave streaks on it, meaning you have to clean it one extra time.
You know what's better? The simple vacuum cleaner...
You're going to drag that big thing out when you can use something simple and light? You only use the vacuum when all the other things you've tried don't work. 😁

I can’t really explain it, but I’ve always loved the aesthetics of your backyard.
Looks like a great static electricity generator. Also why didn't whoever installed your tile grout them.
Grouts definitely there just looks old and degraded, that’s why regrouting is a thing, it doesn’t last if improperly cleaned and with age
@@Blu3ManiC so tired of clients expecting the grout to look better after cleaning without proper maintenance!
It's there it just needs to be regrouted. It wears away over time especially if not maintained well

I have broom with the short rubber bristles (Furwell). Useless at sweeping, but works real well brushing snow off my car.
Whatching him pour the coffee grounds and smash that Bailey fur into the carpet reminded me of watching Anthony Sullivan on QVC!! He’s so good
Did you wipe each squeegee off in between wipes? Like you did the hand held one?
I have one similar to that one. It's handle is very short, so it kills my back. And I have a very small one room house, so there's not much floor space to sweep. It does pretty good at sweeping up cat hair, but I have tile floors, and it makes that horrible squeak sound when using it. 😖 What I was hoping to find out in this video, is whether or not it's better to wet the squeegee before sweeping, or leave it dry? I've tried both ways, but wasn't sure if I was doing it properly when wet. It left smears on the floor, so im guessing it's better dry. Was just curious to see how you used it.
I mean... I'd just get the vacuum out if I spilled coffee.
Thanks for your review. You saved me my time and money. I had planned to buy this to try to make my life easier. Now after this video, that would be a big hell now.
Thanks you for another informative video!!
Oh boy! No thanks for either! The magic broom seemed to press the gritty coffee grounds into the flooring I could hear it. Afraid that would scratch my hardwood floors. BTW, I was not put off by the Starbucks test--ha ha ha. Neither seemed to do the trick well on pet fur. Think I'll keep using my electric stick broom--even on carpet (it picks up beagle hair quite efficiently until I do a real vacuuming). Thanks for another fine and fun test!
Your own dog hair in a bag 🤣
*cries in 5-year old broom with twisted bristles*
Very helpful review, thanks!
Your kitchen looked different in one of the past videos. Did you move from Henderson?
He mentioned multiple times that he was in a different place lol
what kind of wood floor do you have?
Thanks for saving my money! Almost bought it.
Thank you for saving me money, glad I watched this before making an impulse buy!
Did James move or in the process of moving? It’s the second video I’ve caught lately that some of the video isn’t at his house but at some other location
Shouldn't your tile be grouted so there are no gaps?
Squeegees should work well on floor for liquids at my place of work we hose down floors and use the large squeegee broom.
Hi you have alot of videos so i dont know if there is a way to search for a particular vid so hopefully you can tell me if you done a vid on the "deli pro kitchen knife"
I use the floor clean setting on my vacuum, never mind. That's a save for me. Thanks so much
Freakin....new house!
Yea, kinda' needed when you get doxxed. Hopefully he can keep this location a bit more secret.
Are you moving into an apartment James? Or maybe it's one of your kids. Can't imagine Bailey loosing the yard.
Edit: Saw your Twitter post that this is a rental for your show. Gotta say part of the charm has been able to get a glimpse of your home. Kind of will miss it.
@7:39 looks like have a hairy caterpillar try to entering underneath his t-shirt ! 🤣🤣🤣
You cracked me up..., " your mediocre window cleaning skills " 😆. 😙
Always like your every videos. You are the nice reviewer.👍👍👍
Did you buy a new house? I noticed a lot of your videos have been in a different place lately. If so, congrats! Place looks awesome.
I was thinking the same thing. Scrolled to find someone who agreed 😂
Yep. I wondered with the last video too. Perhaps it's a empty model home. Can you imagine walking into one of them, and asking " why does it smell like soy sauce in here?" 😂
That was my first thought about it lol. I just now saw an ad for it today but I wasn’t so convinced. Ha ha. How flimsy the “finger parts” seem like. I have the furwell also so I guess I’m gonna carry on with that for now. Now I’m thinking of using the shower squeegee for windows tho. Impressive. 😅😅 I don’t mind the lightweight handle but the bottom would need to be more rigid. I like the idea of it being ultra lightweight and shaped like a broom and the size of a broom tho. But looks to me like a cheap broom would do just as good. My single complaint about the furwell is just how awkward it is in tight spots or corners. Well and just the fact that you have to switch to a broom to scoop it all up anyways in the end. But it does a fine job with broader areas and really grabs pet hair quite well. I also wonder how it would do if someone sprayed Pam on it before they cleaned up. 😅😅
"Fuckin reviews" always coming through with the good reviews
4:16 is it just me or does it fell like he’s using camera tricks to make it look worse? Like he’s zoomed in for the magic broom so you can see every detail but with the green one he’s zoomed out so you can only see the general picture
It’s like a really long, Honest Informercial 😂💁🏽♂️
Youshould make more comparison between high price and cheap price gadget and stuff. i very like this kind of videos and i see theyare the most popular on your channel too :D
You need to enchant it with your magic 🪄 wand first 🤣
Damn you Harry Potter!
Did it leave scratches on the floor? 2:53
No one bats an eye that he randomly had a whole bag of Bailey's fur!🤣🤣🤣
I use the furwell to mop my floors, spray and wet floors very well. Scrub clean with the brush side, and squeegee the water straight out the back door o the likes.
Those little $10 car squeegees, like the kind you see at gas station pumps. Those actually work really well. But like anything else, after time they wear out and have to be replaced. The ones at the gas stations tend to be crap because the amount of use they get in a short period of time. If you get one brand new at Home Depot, it will work really well for many years before having to replace it.
Yes yes yes!!! I've been wanting you to do this broom I've started buy several times so thank you 😊 hope it works as good if not better than say. 😄
Edit....well yeah that worked as well I thought which is why I didn't buy it. I do know they have lil more expensive ones so wonder if a lil sturdier but I doubt it!! 🤔 thanks again for saving me money and time. Don't have a lot of either and so to waste it isnt an option. Have a great wknd XO 😉
Turns out its crap.
