Looking For the Best Extendable Snow Brush?

Living in an area of the US that get's over 4 feet of snow per season on average, you need the best extendable snow brush possible. The funny thing is, the best extendable snow brush is not a brush at all, it's a reinforced foam pad, and it's great for removing 1 inch to 1 foot of snow with ease. This extendable snow broom (yes, it's called a snow broom) is the best invention for removing snow off of vehicles since I have been it the automotive business.

Working at an automobile dealership is not an easy job after a snow storm, we need to clean off every car in the parking lot for sales and service, running and not running. The inventory can sometimes exceed over 500 vehicles. After cleaning off about 20 vehicles you shoulder fells like is about to start on fire or just fall off.

Before this new snow broom was introduced to the car dealerships, we used those little snow brushes with and ice scraper on the end, on average it would take about 5 to 7 minutes per car, with the new snow broom, that time was cut down to 2 minutes or less per car, that doesn't sound exciting to you until you have to clean off over 500 vehicles, now that sounds exciting!

Every time I use my snow broom in public, I have someone come up to me and ask where I bought it, 5 years ago the only place you could buy a snow broom was through a vender at the dealership, now you can find them in automotive stores everywhere and online. The snow broom has come a long way since the first one was introduced to the market place. The first snow broom was a reinforced foam pad attached to a wooden handle, this makes it hard to stow away in your vehicle, especially if you have a small vehicle.

The new snow broom has a telescopic handle and the pad is removable, the handle is snapped onto the side of the foam pad for easy storing purposes. I have also found some snow brooms that had a pad that was hinged at the end of the pole, that style snow broom did not perform so well in the heavy snow, I broke it in one season. I still have the original snow broom with the wooden handle, I use it to clean the snow off my hot tub, and the foam pad is great because it won't damage the material on the hot tub cover or the paint on your car.

The reason the snow broom is superior compared to a snow brush is because the foam pad does not bend like the bristles on a brush. Another great feature is the foam pad does not trap snow, a brush will trap snow in the bristles, then you put it in your car and the snow melts getting your carpet soaked, or better yet, the trapped snow freezes in to a block of ice, and you scratch the heck out of your paint the next time you use it, like when you're getting out of work after a snowy day.

The snow broom is the way to go when cleaning snow off any vehicle, the extendable pole is great for reaching the top of your vehicle. I'm short, and I drive an SUV, It's impossible to clear the snow from the roof with a regular snow brush unless you have a ladder, and it's not to often I have my trusty ladder with me in a snow storm. Having an extendable pole on the snow broom is a life saver, especially if you're short like me.

Don't be that person driving down the highway with a foot of snow on your car, clean it off, not only is it dangerous for the vehicles behind you, it can damage your vehicle and impair your view when it slides off the roof when coming to a stop. How many times have you seen a vehicle come to a stop, and the snow on the roof slides forward on to the hood of the vehicle? Sometimes it will break the windshield wiper clean off the vehicle, what a mess that turns out to be, now you can't even clear the windshield because of your windshield wiper is broken, and it cost even more money to fix your wipers.

If you're looking for a fast and easy way to clean the snow off your car, the best snow brush is the snow broom, it's easy to use and set up, it won't collect snow, and it's easy to stow away in your trunk or back seat. The extendable pole helps you reach those hard to reach places if your short or you just have a tall vehicle like a van or SUV.
