The invention is claimed as follows: 1. A household cleaning device comprising: a cleaning member; and a handle connected to the cleaning member, the handle including a first member and a second member, the second member including a pivot post having a ball member and a pivot shaft, and the first member including a socket, the ball member being disposed in the socket to couple the first member and the second member and enable the second member to pivot with respect to the first member; wherein the socket comprises a plurality of fingers, the plurality of fingers defining a plurality of pivot axes therebetween for receiving the pivot shaft. 2. The household cleaning device of claim 1, wherein the fingers are made of at least one of: a flexible material and a rigid material. 3. The household cleaning device of claim 1, which includes a first connector including the socket and a second connector including the ball member, wherein the first connector is removably connected to the first member and the second connector is removably connected to the second member. 4. The household cleaning device of claim 3, wherein at least one of the first and second members includes a cavity, at least one of the first connector and the second connector including ridges which frictionally engage an inside surface of the cavity. 5. The household cleaning device of claim 1, wherein the first member includes a grip. 6. The household cleaning device of claim 1, wherein the cleaning member is at least one of: a brush, a dust mop and a mop. 7. A household cleaning device comprising: a cleaning member; a handle connected to the cleaning member, the handle including a first member and a second member, the second member including a ball member and the first member including a socket, the ball member being disposed in the socket to couple the first member and the second member and enable the second member to pivot with respect to the first member; and a sleeve slidably connected to the handle and movable between a first position, which allows the second member to pivot, and a second position, which does not allow the second member to pivot; wherein the sleeve in the second position encases the ball member and the socket by contacting at least a portion of each of the first member and the second member. 8. The household cleaning device of claim 7, wherein the second member includes a prong-shaped collar and the sleeve defines a prong-shaped end, and wherein the prong-shaped end of the sleeve engages the prong-shaped collar when the sleeve is in the second position. 9. The household cleaning device of claim 7, wherein the sleeve includes an actuator, which when activated, releases the sleeve from one of the first and second positions. 10. The household cleaning device of claim 7, which includes a first connector including the socket and a second connector including the ball member, wherein the first connector is removably connected to the first member and the second connector is removably connected to the second member. 11. The household cleaning device of claim 10, wherein at least one of the first and second members includes a cavity, at least one of the first connector and the second connector including ridges which frictionally engage an inside surface of the cavity. 12. The household cleaning device of claim 7, wherein the cleaning member is at least one of: a brush, a dust mop and a mop. 13. A household cleaning device comprising: a cleaning member; and a handle connected to the cleaning member, the handle including a first member and a second member, the first member defining a socket and the second member defining an opening, the socket comprising a plurality of fingers; and a pivot member including a first end having a ball member and a pivot shaft and an opposing second end, the second end being disposed in the opening and secured to the second member, and the ball member being disposed in the socket to couple the first member and the second member and enable the second member to pivot with respect to the first member; wherein the plurality of fingers define a plurality of pivot axes therebetween for receiving the pivot shaft. 14. The household cleaning device of claim 13, which includes a sleeve that is slidably connected to the handle and movable between a first position, which allows the second member to pivot, and a second position which at least partially covers the pivot member and which does not allow the second member to pivot. 15. The household cleaning device of claim 14, wherein the second member includes a prong-shaped collar and the sleeve defines a prong-shaped end, and wherein the prong-shaped end of the sleeve engages the prong-shaped collar when the sleeve is in the second position. 16. The household cleaning device of claim 14, wherein the sleeve includes an actuator, which when activated, releases the sleeve from one of the first and second positions. 17. The household cleaning device of claim 14, which includes a first connector including the socket and a second connector connected to the pivot member, wherein the first connector is removably connected to the first member and the second connector is removably connected to the second member. 18. The household cleaning device of claim 17, wherein at least one of the first and second members includes a cavity, at least one of the first connector and the second connector including ridges which frictionally engage an inside surface of the cavity. 19. The household cleaning device of claim 13, wherein the cleaning member is at least one of: a brush, a dust mop and a mop.
