Dec 11 2007Vacuum + Broom = Vacuum Broom, Wow!
The Vacuum Broom from designer Wilson Song is the lovechild of a vacuum and broom that were locked in the same closet overnight. I heard a mop insisted on a threesome but they wouldn't have it. Anyways, the hollow broom bristles have suction ducts inside that allow for the vacuuming of small particulate, while the unit also acts as a traditional broom, sweeping larger debris into the dustpan. Interesting concept, but I question how well it would work. Although I don't really care. I don't clean floors, that's the maid's (read: wife's) job. Ha, ha, just kidding honey. No but seriously make sure the house is clean and dinner is on the table when I get home.
Two more close-ups after the jump.

We had one of these when I was a kid like 10-15 years ago. How the eff is this anything remotely clever?

You guys are morons....he's f***ing with your brains. Half the shit he says about himself is FALSE. It's to get people to A) laugh and B) look at the damn site.
Heheeeee it's VROOM, that's what I call it. Or at least it's the noise I make while pretending to vacuum the house so my mom doesn't think I'm a total slacker.
