2. Problem
The problem is when you sweep the dustpan moves. My mother has a problem getting all the dust in the dustpan. It wastes time to clean the room. I see she has this problem around the house. So I came up with this solution.

3. Brainstorm Solutions to the Problem
Put foot in pan
Handle on pan
Heavy pan

4. Solution
The solution is a dustpan with sticky stuff. The stuff is removable glue,grip pad,and plungers. That is so it will not move. That is my solution.

5. Design My design was a dustpan with a grip. Dustpan Carpet grip
Hot glue

6. Testing my design
To test my design I asked the following questions to 4 people
Is it cheap?
Will it sell?
Does it work?
Would you use it?

7. Criteria Charlie Jillian Collin Aaron Is it cheap? Yes Will it sell?
Does it work
Not good No
Would you use it?
yes

8. Resluts of my test
All of my friends thought it would work. All of my friends thought it was cheap. Two of my friends thought it would work, two of my friends thought it wouldn’t work. All of my friends thought it would sell.

9. How I built it
I bought a dustpan at Walmart and some grippy carpet stuff. I built it
by hot gluing the carpet stuff to
dustpan. So it could grip to the ground.

10. How I can improve my prototype
A way I can improve my prototype
is to use sticky bug capturers. At the bottom of the Gripan.

11. Why you should buy the Gripan
I think you should by the Gripan because it will help you with everyday cleaning. Like when you sweep. So it will be easier.
