With winter comes the possibility of snow and ice. These conditions can make driving dangerous — even deadly. However, with the right equipment, you can avoid a hazardous situation. 

One must-have for those who regularly deal with snow is a snow broom. These long-handled devices are used to push off all the snow that accumulates on your car so you can see clearly and don’t have to worry about it sliding off while you’re on the go.

In this article: Birdrock Home Extendable 55-Inch Snow Brush and Ice Scraper, Mallory 532 Cool-Force Snowbrush With Ice Scraper and Snow Joe Illum-n Lighted Snow Broom.

Head

The head of a snow broom has two aspects to consider:

Ice scraper

Most snow brooms include an ice scraper, which is typically attached to the pole’s hilt. These mean you don’t need to keep track of a second piece of gear, but they can be unwieldy. The best ice scraper hilts have ice-chipping nubs on one end. Some brooms with an ice scraper hilt have a second grip near the brush head so it’s easier to use the scraper.

Cost

Basic snow brooms typically cost $10-$20. Snow brooms with more features can cost up to $40. The best, most fully featured snow brooms can cost up to $50 (few exceed this price).
