Welcome to the Oates Space Save Dustpan Set Review!

Whether you’re a mum to an adorable little fur baby or gorgeous human baby, we all know that life can get a little messy.

That’s why we’re so excited to bring you the Oates Space Saver Dustpan Set review, because whatever mess you’ve got – big or small – clean up is easy with Oates!

Whatever way you look at it, life gets messy and rather than stress, Oates wants you to look for fun and laugh at the mess (#LaughAtTheMess) … the Oates Space Saver Dustpan can help with the little messes around your home so it’s clean and tidy … even if only for an hour.

What’s great is that the Oates Space Saver Dustpan set has a larger size pan than most dustpans. It also has side ridges to conveniently and effectively clean the brush and remove hair (there’s nothing worse than an old dustpan full of hair and fuzz … we’ve all been there).

The Oates Space Saver Dustpan Set brush features an in-built rubber blade and flagged bristles for optimal cleaning. The electrostatic properties of the rubber edges attract and trap more dust and fine particles. The dustpan also has a unique freestanding design that saves cupboard space and keeps storage neat and tidy.

The Oates Space Saver Dustpan Set has lots of great features, including:

  • A freestanding design that saves cupboard space
  • An in-built rubber blade in the brush and flagged bristles for optimal cleaning
  • A larger size pan with side ridges to effectively clean the brush and remove hair
  • And electrostatic properties in its rubber edges to attract and trap more dust and fine particles

Where can I buy the Oates Space Saver Dustpan Set?

The Oates Space Saver Dustpan set is available at Bunnings Warehouse.

  • Glitter cleaner

    Yes this Oates spacesaver dustpan totally works. The Oates Space Saver Dustpan is great for sweeping up small messes and I literally just cleaned up glitter on my floor using this dustpan. The front strip is still glittering but it did help with picking up most of the glitter off the floor. Yep I will be buying this again.

  • So good

    The Oates Space Saver Dustpan is such a great cleaning tool. It is easy to store and so very easy to use. The quality of the rubber strip is so good. It helps with pickup of dust right into the pan in one stroke. I am super happy with it. I do know it’s on the expensive side as compared to the $1 dustpans, but this is like a one time investment. It is great quality, thick and durable. Highly recommended. Go for it.

  • best one ive tried

    This Oates dustpan is seriously the best one I have tried. The strip at the bottom actually gets the dirt into the dustpan instead of underneath it. It makes it so much easier to sweep up dirt. Being an Oates brand you also know its great quality and wont break within the first couple of uses. I will never buy any other dust pan again.

  • It does what I need it to do

    I don’t often use dustpans, I am more of a mop and vacuum cleaner girl however it has really helped when I can’t just vacuum a mess or if the kids have spilt something I don’t want to damage the vacuum with.
    It’s sturdy and durable and you can even use it when all of the kids are in bed without the risk of waking the little tornadoes

  • Great, even the kids can use it

    Yes I love this dustpan and so does my son. It’s great that he actually gets excited to clean up the mess he has made. It’s chunky enough for him to use but not too heavy that he can’t hold. I’d recommend this to any parent who wants to clean quickly and efficiently. It has a nice fit against the floor and captures all the crumbs easily.

  • So impressive!! Worth the money!

    I have only ever owned a $1 cheap dustpan and broom set because I figured they were all the same but wow I was wrong!
    I was so impressed by this, dare I say I actually had fun sweeping with it!
    It’s solid and sturdy, and the dustpan stops dirt from being swept underneath it.
    It has a section where you can clean the broom and it has a rubber piece in the middle of the bristles which helps trap the dirt too.
    The kids loved having a turn with it too.

  • Easy to store!

    Living in a place with limited storage, this little gem fits perfectly in our household! The freestanding design makes it easy to store away. Its great quality and the pan itself is sturdy and with the high edges, debris stay inside the pan easily .
    Great product and I think all households should own one! Hands down the most practical dustpan I’ve come across. Easy for littlest hands to help out too 🙂

  • So Much Better Then The Rest

    WOW… This Oates Space Saver Dustpan is really great. I do like the feature of it being able to stand upright by itself. Great for small spaces. The high edges of the pan allows you to sweep and carry more stuff, without it falling out.
    The rubber edge works so much better then my current hard plastic pan, with getting the ALL the small dirt into the pan with ease.
    Overall a great product. Makes cleaning floors more enjoyable, if I do say so myself. Would recommend getting this to anyone looking for a Dustpan Set.

  • Love it will be buying another.

    We LOVE the Oats Space Saver Dustpan we have been through a lot of cheaper dust pans over the years that never last or keep the dust and dirt in the pan. We love how that it isn’t made from the weaker plastics the snap easily and how it has a deeper pan. We will be recommending this dustpan to all of our friends and family.

  • Dustpan space saver that keeps what it sweeps

    We have all had those dustpans that never seem to pick up every little piece of dirt off the floor, after trying to sweep it up continuously but don’t have the time to battle your dustpan so you try to pick up all the little pieces with your hands, this becomes hazardous when it is required to pick up items such as broken glass, etc. Well not any more, I found a savior in the Oates Space Saver Dustpan, after an incredible sweep with the triple action flat mop, I was able to pick up everything off the tiles with this dustpan, there was not a single piece of mess left. the deep sides of the dustpan ensure the mess will not fall out and the bristle of the brush are firm yet flexible enough to ensure the capture of even the smallest dust bunny. I have since thrown out my old unbranded dustpan and use the Oates Space Saver Dustpan. For its efficiency, easy grip and great value, I recommend this product to others as well as the greatest possibly to repurchase this item.

  • Great Product - I would buy again

    I can’t tell you how long we have been using our dodgy kmart dustpan for. It was refreshing to use a dustpan that actually held the dust instead of spreading it back across the floor. This is a good quality product that actually does that job. I would to buy again.

  • Dustpan review

    This dustpan i found that it didnt sit flush to the floor properly near the sides.
    I found that it can only clean really small amounts where as my other dust pan has a bigger bump to stop dirt from falling out when i sweep more into it.
    I found the handle slifhtly uncomfortable to hold when the brush isnt sitting in it.

    The sides are high which means you can stand it up but it makes it more bulky so not much of a space saver for me and the teeth along the edge to clean the brush bristles is a good design.

    I thought the brush was well designed.
    I liked that it had a scraper at the end to scrape the muck stuck to the floor. I like the rubber tongue in the bristles to help sweep up the really small dirt.

    All in all the brush is well designed but but the dustpan needs tweeking.

    I wouldnt recommend until the pan is fixed.

  • Oates Space Saver Dustpan

    A dustpan is really useful when you have kids because they make a lot of mess and you want the cleaning process to be nice, quick and easy.

    So this dustpan is definitely a lot bigger than all of the other dustpans I have ever used so that’s good when the mess is really big. There are less sweeps and dumps which is great because that means I am not bending down and getting up, bending down and getting up more times.

    It is also shaped where it’s easy to handle and use.

  • Efficient, easy to use, affordable

    This was a huge win for my house.
    With a mix of wooden floors, tiles and carpet, this worked on all surfaces.
    The brush clips into the pan solidly and doesn’t fall out like other brands.
    The teeth on the side make it easy to ‘clean’ the brush between uses.
    The pan itself is deep enough that a slight tilt will not empty the contents.

    I also love that the handle has a hole in it so it can be hung and save even more space.
    A winner for sure!

    I have used so many brands of dust pans that i have lost count of them!
    When I saw this product, I knew it will ease my job of collecting the mess after sweeping the floor. It has rubbery edge that makes it more durable and brush has rubbery partition thing placed between bristles that makes it sturdy and won’t just say after few uses. I highly recommend this product

  • Swept away in the moment

    Well big mess cut short, flour incident as the ad shows happened at my place! Pulled the major items out of the mess and then got down and gathered the mess in tight.
    The silicon ridge in the brush assisted piling the mess together. The brainwave however lays in the silicon edge of the pan. It moulded to the floor surface not allowing any less to escape under the lip of the pan.
    After use the whole set just slips neatly into the bottom of my pantry for easy access next time.
    The only thing more this lazy mumma could ask is for a longer standing height handle or someone else to do the cleaning.

  • Great brush not sure on the dustpan

    I sweep up after my two year old a lot so I used this dustpan and brush quite a few times daily.
    I think the design of the brush is good and it’s easy to store and looks good but I find the dustpan design a bit awkward.

    The Oates Space Saver Dustpan Set is extremely quick to use! Making tackling the 1001 little messes that occur through the day a breeze to clean up!! It stores away upright extremely discretely and it is just one of the most useful little things I’ve got at home, I absolutely love it and highly recommend it especially if you want something efficient which doesn’t take up much space!!

  • Freestanding feature interferes with products ability to work effectively

    Unfortunately the Oates Space saver Dustpan Set was not something I would recommend. Firstly for me personally I like to hang my dustpan and broom and this one is much bigger than the one I currently own so is not a space saver for me. I can appreciate how the stand up feature would be helpful if you wanted to keep it on a shelf. The Freestanding feature works because the dustpan has high sides at the front however this makes sweeping the dust into the pan a little difficult as the broom kept hitting the high sides making it awkward to use efficiently. Overall the Freestanding feature interferes with the products ability to do its job properly.

  • Sorry not for me.

    Yes indeed this Oates space saver dustpan is good and indeed it has great features but for me it lacks one. I am a senior and have back issues and bending down to sweep up messes is not an option for me. It’s back to the Oates Ezy Reach Dustpan for me. This space saver dustpan is wonderful for children as they are shorter in statue and young energetic adults but sadly not me.

  • Highly recommend this cleaning marvel

    As a Mum of two the dust pan and hand broom is a must have, as not a meal goes by where its not needed. So, I was so excited to try to Oates Space Saver set and I was not disappointed.

    The design of the dust pan is different to my current one and is far superior. The high curved sides means that as you sweep into it the debris goes in easily and with the rubber edge it’s staying there.

    The pan is sturdy and great quality and the bristles on the broom are firm and wide enough to get the job done.

    The hole in the top of the set means hanging it on my cleaning rack was no issue and I am able to grab it as needed.

    Highly recommend this cleaning marvel.

    Wow, I didn’t thing dustpan and brushes could be so different. This one is great that you can stand it up easily or also hang it. The curved design of the dustpan means that it catches the dirt that usually gets flung over the back from a little too much power on the brush! The brush is great too, easily catching hairs. Great for toddler crumbs too. Highly recommend the Oates Space Saver dustpan and brush.

    I would call this dust pan and brush the highest quality and top of the line. It’s handle is long to easily grasp, it’s got a good grip which is also comfortable on your hands. The brush does a fantastic job at sweeping every little thing into the pan, there is no residue left over. It catches everything! The pan is longer than others I have used. I also love the white and blue colour. It literally is the best dustpan and brush. Thanks Oates, I’m converted!

Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.

Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.

One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.

We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.

Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums

What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.

1. Nappy Free Time

“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.

We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.

2. Change Nappies Frequently

“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member

Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.

3. Use A Barrier Cream

“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes

Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.

4. Choose Gentle

“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F

Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.


Nappy Rash Myths & Facts

🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies.
✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.

It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.

🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies.
✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.

Huggies’ Rapid-Dry™ Technology absorbs wetness instantly, reducing irritation risk.

🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation.
✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.
