I can't wait for Lady to come home and do the real testing. :hyper:
The fact that there were two of them helped me figure it out. I threaded the head onto the first one right off the bat, which locked the telescoping mechanism rather firmly. I tried telescoping the other one and it pulled right out, so I was able to use that one to figure out how to unlock the other one.

I'm surprised at the lack of instructions that came with everything I ordered. Not that it's terribly complicated, but a couple of sentences on a little sheet of paper or the packaging itself would be nice. I also bought the "Super Squeegee" for cleaning the windows, since we haven't done so since I bought the place almost a year ago. I'm going to have to do a little trial-and-error to figure out the best way to use the damn thing.

I also bought a package of ten "Bongo Ties" from that site (darn you, liv!) even though I don't have any particular plans for them. They just looked cool.

:rofl: I trawled that site for days to see if I could rationalize buying enough stuff to qualify for free shipping. As soon as you use one of them Bongo Ties I want to hear about it.

I thought the same thing you did about the paucity of instructions for using the broom, btw. I just totally forgot about it once I figured it out and the awesomeness of the sweeping experience took over.

I find it beyond ironic that a thread with my name in the title has to do with cleaning supplies.

Impulsively buying shit off the internet, however? Not so ironic.

Holy crap, LIV! This broom is great! I was shocked that I only had to go over an area once to pick up all the dirt/crumbs.

I'm excited to try spot mopping with it, but it's Saturday evening and I'm too damn lazy.

We're going to need a "cleaning tips" subforum.
