This dust pan and broom set are 39" (99cm) tall when in use. The long painted metal handles clip together for storage. The pan has a flexible rubber leading edge to pick up the finest dust. The pan also pivots upwards when lifted off the floor to close up and prevent spillage. The bristles of the broom fit in a pocket in the closed dust pan to prevent them from being bent when stored away. A very good quality set. Weighs 2lbs (0.9kg).
