Extra Large Industrial Aluminum DustPan
Check Price
Bottom Line

This metal dust pan performs like the steel pans, but is made of a lighter-weight aluminum.

Pros

Rubber handle makes a comfortable grip. Very large 17" width. Edges are fine and can pick up a lot of small debris easily. Lightweight. Loop handle is easy to hold and easy to hang for storage.

Cons

This size is best for the garden or garage rather than the kitchen.

Bottom Line

This is the kind of metal dustpan you will be handing down to the kids.

Pros

Made without rivets as one piece of molded steel. Built to last. Metal lays flat on surfaces to help sweep cleanly. Large size and be used for indoor or outdoor work. Does not tend to bend or break with heavy home use.

Cons

It comes with a huge sticker that covers the entire front of the pan and is difficult to get off.

Bottom Line

A nice solid-steel dustpan that is a lower price than some similar models.

Pros

A wide base. Includes a hole in the handle for hanging. Sturdy and well made. Heavy enough to be set on the floor while you sweep debris into it. Works a lot better than plastic dustpans.

Cons

The handle on this model is a little shorter than others available.

Bottom Line

This is an attractive metal dustpan that gets the job done, but is still good looking enough to keep out in plain sight.

Pros

8" wide and 17" long. An unusual shape. Attractive enough to keep out. Wooden handle. Powder coated finish on the metal dustpan. Easy to hang on the wall.

Cons

This dustpan is a little narrower than other metal dustpans on the market.

Most people don’t think about the quality of their dustpan, but buying a better version can save more money and time in the long run. High quality, metal dustpans are the choice of cleaning professionals needing something that will last for years. Much like plastic pans, metal dustpans come in different shapes and sizes. It is important to find the right size for your broom and cleaning space. Larger pans can hold more dirt and debris in a single sitting but may be difficult to fit in smaller, cramped spaces. The pan should also have a fine, protected edge so it’s easy to sweep dust into without damaging hardwood floors.
