The Cleansweep Five was a broomstick produced by the Cleansweep Broom Company,[1] created sometime between 1937 and 1953.[2] It was succeeded by the Cleansweep Six sometime before 1995.[5]
Known owners[]
- Gwendolyn Morgan, Captain of the Holyhead Harpies, owned a Cleansweep Five. When the Captain of the Heidelberg Harriers Rudolf Brand attempted to propose to her on the pitch, Gwendolyn responded by concussing him with it.[4]
- Fred and George Weasley flew Cleansweep Fives when they played as Beaters for the Gryffindor Quidditch team.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
- Presumably, between the production of the Cleansweep Three and Cleansweep Five, the Cleansweep Four was produced, although this has never been mentioned.

- ↑ 2.0 2.1 The Cleansweep Five already existed by the time Rudolf Brand proposed to Gwendolyn Morgan in 1953, so it must've been before then. The last known year a Cleansweep was made was the Cleansweep Three in 1937. Therefore, the Cleansweep Five (and Four if it exists) must've first been created between those years.
