- In this video, some stuff is power broomed, and compared to regular brooming. This video shows grass clippings, grass clippings + compost, and fine dust on concrete. It also has mulch and damp sand on a paver patio being power broomed.

I would rather use a blower to do these clean ups but I see this being GREAT for cleaning snow off wall ways!
It might be useful for cleaning off heavy and/or wet debris🤔.
You need a stiffer bristled outdoor broom!
Got the head list
excellent choice when you can't use the leaf blower beceause you dont want to make a dust storm.
A strong leaf blower would be alot faster and better for this type of job. I use my power broom with water and degreaser to scrub oil from my driveway.
Water and degreaser? Does this work well?
I bet this would be great with snow clean ups. Sometimes the blowers can’t get everything.
Don’t you still have to sweep it up at the end?
No, it is catapulted to the moon
Leaf blower done son
The ending made it worth the watch
Yeah. Dog toy 😂🤣.
I like this video, and it's so strange to hear a gas engine on lawn equipment. I haven't heard one in such a long time.
Reminds me of the Boeing 707s that used to fly overhead in the days of old. Loud but powerful..🤔 maybe just loud.
😄😄
LOL you must live in CA.
Sliding scales thank you for your quick response. We clean house and most driveways have green mold stuck on the surface of the concrete driveway. The manual sweeper will be better or the gas sweeper. Your help will be appreciated
I don't think the power broom is going to help you with mold. It's basically a faster broom, but it's gentle and not aggressive. I think you'd be better off with a power washer if you're trying to clean up moss.
@@slidingscales257 I'm impressed that you are answering questions in the comments. Lots of CZcams posters don't do this .
@@jannh29 Thanks!
Did you walk backwards and blow the dirt?
Nope, just walking forward and using the power broom.
It's all about da ending
Can you tell me the difference between this one and the manual sweeper. Gas sweeper vs manual sweeper like tomahawk manual sweeper
This one just pushes the dirt/debris around, just like a normal broom. The manual sweepers look like they actually pick up stuff into an onboard collection bin.
How well do you think this would work getting rid of moss on an asphalt driveway?
Poorly. It doesn't really dig in at all. If the moss were already dead, it would sweep it up. In my experience, if it's alive, then it just goes over the top.

use this as a garden roller
Is it good to use on grass to get rid of thatch?
If you've got a small-ish patch of grass, and you already have the broom, I think it'd work okay. It's a bit tiring on the arms because it pulls a bit. You're probably better off using a dedicated lawn dethatcher if you're looking at buying or renting something.
How would this handle pine needles?
It'll work well on pine needles.
Best have a good window cleaner
Does it damage tarmac surfaces?
That’s a good question. Nope, it’s safe to use on asphalt/tarmac. It’s about as damaging as a normal shop broom.
do snow next
Good idea. Thanks for the suggestion!
Would it sweep sand off grass?
It could do that. It's kinda rough on the grass though. But if you had a lot to move, it could be a good option.
From my research so far, you want to use the paddle broom attachment instead of the bristles for your lawn. The paddles are made of plastic and will not damage the grass, while getting the job done. Look up a few videos it looks great.

Use a stiff bass brush , put your back into it, not a machine ,

I think I know, which one your neighbors want you to use (-;
A battery driven one may be a good compromise ...
This thing is hideously expensive and I can't see the point, just use a blower. Some of these Kombi tools are absolutely ridiculous in price..
Yeah, it's expensive, but it has some use cases. General cleanup like in the video is not it. It's good for fluffing up artificial turf, does pretty okay for clearing of not-too-icy snow, and kinda getting rock and stuff out of grass.
I had a bunch of standing water/mud on my driveway the other day, and it worked well to push it off to the side. But the power broom only comes out when the leaf blower can't do the job.
it would do a much better job if you flipped the broom
Why? What do you mean?
@@Ryan-wj9nh figure it out. Flip it by taking it apart and rotate the broom, you'll see the difference
@@enduser1982 i can figure it out. That’s the way I have mine set. I was just asking you why you prefer it
@@Ryan-wj9nh you didn't say that initially.
If you flip it, it keeps the stuff closer to the ground, cleaner
Late to the party comment here but I’m fairly confident you have the actual brush attachment upside down in terms of how it’s positioned with the gearbox. If you look at the instruction manual, the brush attachment is meant to rotate in towards the user and the guard. If you look at the sticker on the guard itself you’ll see what I mean with the directional arrows.
Lazy as!!!!!
ha! no shame in being more effective with less effort
This was supposed to be a comparison of the Stihl Power Broom vs Regular Broom, yet you only showed the bristle broom attachment being used on damp sand, and mulch where the power broom would have been a far better choice. Your "review" was pretty much useless.
Um die Fugen nicht auszufegen, halten wir das Gerät immer 45° zur Fuge😮
Warum nicht die Gelenke ausfegen?
