Swiffer Duster® Review

Swiffer Dusters come in a box that contains one handle and five disposable dusters.  The handle is a cinch to snap together, and you simply fluff out the duster until the little "fingers" are plumped up and ready to grab onto dusty surfaces.

The duster does a magnificent job of chasing those dust bunnies, and they can't even hide in the tightest corners.  I dust everything from my furniture, to my keyboards, television screens, lamps, picture frames, and knick-knacks.  Where the Swiffer Duster works best is on the room vents where dust really likes to collect.  In the past, I used my vacuum hose to clean out the vents, but I find that the Swiffer Duster is a much easier solution for keeping those vents dust-free.  I don't have to pull out a heavy vacuum and mess with attachments.  With a few swipes of the Swiffer Duster, I have a clean vent with little effort.

I also use the Swiffer Duster to clean out the excess lint in my clothing dryer.  Even after the lint filter is pulled out and cleaned, I can still see residual lint trapped inside.  Because the Swiffer Duster is flexible, I can easily grab the excess lint that is hiding inside the lint trap.

I still hate dusting, but I love that Swiffer Dusters make the job so much easier for me.  I hope that some day they come out with a eco-friendly product made of recycled fibers.  Until then, I will use these to keep my home dust and allergen-free.
