OXO Good Grips Microfiber Hand Duster | Double-Sided Head Locks in Dust, Gentle on Surfaces, Quick Dusting and Detailing, Cleaning Essentials, Supplies, Dusting

I couldn't believe how effectively household dust is attracted to and remains attached to the feathery red fabric of this OXO Duster and then rinses out so easily! This duster is so much more thorough and easier to use than other dusters I've tried in the past that I truly I wish I had tried the OXO duster instead of those other brands years ago!A couple of hints for people new to the OXO Duster: At first I wasn't sure that it was safe to remove the sleeve of feathers from the handle in order to wash it, but another customer review assured me that it's not rocket science, so a I found that by slipping a table knife between the white strips that were keeping the feathery part on the handle, the duster was freed to wash and rinse as needed.Once I was sold on the OXO Duster as my dream come true, I thought it might be a good idea to get a spare duster for those rare days when I might be ambitious enough to do more than hit-or-miss cleaning, but I decided instead to order the duster "Refill" for those rare days when I might want to dust fans and books and paintings and blinds on the same day.One caveat for new users: the magic red "feathers" are easy to clean, but they take hours to dry, so after checking to be sure it's easy to snap and unsnap the sleeve of feathers on and off the handle, wet or dry, I decided to order an extra "OXO Duster Refill" for those days when I'm ambitious or desperate enough to dust more thoroughly.Enjoy!!!

After my cleaning crew of many years went out of business, I decided to try to gut it out on my own. Alas, this decision did not intimidate dust bunnies from hopping all over the bedroom, and eventually I had to actually get off my duff and do something. I am learning on the fly. Yesterday I learned that this OXO duster is a very good product and from all appearances will serve me well for some time.The duster is comfortable in the hand and picks up dust well. The handle is long enough that in combination with my 5' 6" height I was able to reach the tops of most of the framed art in the house. To get more use out of the duster before it became saturated with dust, I used a rechargeable hand vacuum a couple times to get most of the dust off the duster. When that move seemed to reach its limit, I swapped out the microfiber sleeve for a new one, which I had the foresight to buy in the same order as the duster. The simple snap that anchors the sleeve onto the handle is easy to work with and swapping is, indeed, a snap. This whole strategy went well and it is an approach I plan to continue to use.I was surprised, when the duster arrived, that it is not cylindrical, but rather is a kind of dusting tongue. This actually is an advantage, since it means the tongue will reach into awkward places, like behind unmovable furniture, a little more easily.While the product literature stresses to only use hand washing and hand drying, I experimented a bit, with (so far) good results. I have a recently purchased LG top loading machine that does not have an agitator, and I guessed that this might be gentle enough, with cold water and a "delicate", low spin speed setting, to not injure the fabric. This seems to have worked well. It got the sleeves free of dust, without causing any noticeable shedding of the bright orange microfiber. In fact, I wonder whether hand washing might actually turn out to be less gentle than this machine wash, while at the same time clearing out less wash/rinse water than the machine wash does. One caution - the dust has to go somewhere in the machine washing, and that somewhere is your drain; I noticed that the replaceable lint filter I have on the drain tube was dirtier than it had been - but on the bright side it also contained no noticeable orange microfiber! Overall, I will continue to use the machine wash and live with more frequent changes in the drain filter, if it comes to that.For the drying, I had an inspiration that turned out to be quite productive. Thinking about how I was going to airdry the duster sleeves, I realized I could easily bend a standard wire shirt hanger to create frames that approximate the plastic loop of the duster unit that the fabric sleeve slides over. This was easily done with a couple of pliers to generate the "Duster Sleeve Drying Frame" (patent pending) shown in the photograph attached. There are two drying units shown: the one in the back is outfitted with two orange microfiber sleeves just out of the washing machine; the unit in the foreground is empty, so you can see how it was bent to accommodate two sleeves. In this design the hanger hook is left intact so it can be hung like a standard hanger. The side prongs for attaching the sleeves are angled upward as much as possible to limit the possibility that the sleeve might slide off - although this did not seem to be a problem, presumably because I left the wire loop wide enough that the fit was snug. After hanging like this overnight in the laundry area of the basement, the sleeves were dry, very fluffy, and ready to go at it once more. And again, no noticeable shedding of the microfiber.

I really like this duster. It is easy to hold, easy to use, and does a great job of collecting the dust. I use these for a cleaning job so I purchased them for another one for at home. I am very happy with this purchase!

I have a love hate relationship with dusters. I love how they pick up the dust, but I hate how they remain forever dusty no matter how hard you try to shake them out. The thought of dusting with a dusty wand annoys me, but I'm way too cheap to perpetually purchase disposable dusters. That being said, this duster is fine. It does its job. I like the grip, the flat shape, and the flexible wand. But the real measure of duster is how well it holds up to being whacked around to release the dust. I'm not entirely confident this will stand the abuse over time.

The red color makes it easy to see if you're picking up dust, and it has a nice long reach. The material is soft so I don't have to worry about scratches. It's also easily washable and even did well after thrown in the dryer.

Best duster ever!!! This is my second one bc my husband loved it so much and kept my first one for his gameroom and collectibles. The microfiber part is washable. Very convenient! This duster keeps all the dust on it. Dont need to go over a spot unless it is something big you might be cleaning.. No dust flies around in the air or is left behind like when you use a typical feathered duster. Yuck!. We are so in love with our new dusters. Buy it. You won't regret it.

This item works great! I use it daily and I'm always pleased with the results. I highly recommend this item for dusting special surfaces without scratching them. Also, easy to care for - wash and reuse.

This is a good duster. Very Happ with it! Picks up dirt and doesn’t fly away! I definitely recommend this s duster/
