This was okay. I was hoping that it would be a miracle item that allowed me to get rid of my Pledge & dust rag, but I'm still going to have to keep it around. Some problems I had with it was that it snagged on rough surfaces, it chased dust bunnies away rather than catching them, and it didn't really hold in the dust quite as well as I hoped. Case in point, I dusted off my ceiling fan blades and could see tons of dust falling from them rather than being caught by the Swiffer. On the other hand, I think that this is a great item for smaller dusting jobs, like cleaning knickknack shelves, or the tops of clocks, paintings, etc. They would also be great to give to my husband or kids and let them tackle the smaller dusting jobs while I get the bigger ones done. All in all, I liked it enough that I would keep them on hand in the house, but they won't be replacing the rest of my dusting items anytime soon.

This is only ok. They clean well for the first few uses then become so dirty that they have to be tossed. They snag easily and seem to spread the dust around more than actually pick it up.

It is great for small jobs for my kids, but I don't use it as my full time duster. It doesn't catch the dust as much as I like and with my daughters Asthma I can't have dust flying all over. Not great for high up places like ceiling fans or shelves because it just pushes the dust off. Works great on smooth areas that just don't have a lot of dust.

Generic is just as good.

Okay, but still leave dust and dirt.

Ok first things first if you are in a hurry and just want to do a quick job then this isn't to bad. I have to say that I don't like using something over that already has dust and dirt on it. So it would cost me to much to buy refills every time I went to use it. The concept is good I'm just picky.

Works okay. Doesn't collect all the dust like it suggests.

So handy for a quick dust. I have a long handled one that is amazing for tops of door frames, chandeliers, etc. I bought one for work too. A tad expensive and not super happy about using a single use item every time but cheaper than a cleaning lady!

I keep a box of refills in the laundry room but I have wands in several rooms. That way, I can just pick up a wand, do a quick once-over, drop the wand, and continue with whatever I came into the room to do. If you do that, a couple of times a week, then you only need to do a more intensive dusting, maybe once a month. That, I like :) (air cleaners help, too, though LOL) I even keep one in the car, under the seat, to do a quick swipe on the dash. The only downside is that the fabric of the duster can stick on rough surfaces or get caught on sharp objects, so do be careful when dusting tzotchkes!

i really like that i no longer have to climb on a chair to reach up and dust im only 5'3 so even for just our tv stand i had to climb on a chair to dust it along with some of the shelves we have hanging up but now i dont have to i can just grab my swiffer and go the only complaint is how expensive the refills are after a while i have seem some people on the internet have made washable ones and i am trying to find how to get those i wish swiffer would just make it easier and make them

I like this duster - a lot. It grabs the dust without spreading it around and holds on to it for a long time until it absolutely gets full (which takes a while!). It gets into tiny spaces and nooks and crannies you find hard to dust. You'll find dusting goes far faster with Swiffer Dusters. The only issue with this version is that it's not the 360 degree type, so you find yourself twisting and turning to get in and around all the tight spaces and on all sides. That is, until you pay a little more for the Swiffer 360, and then a lot more for the refills...

Love this. Makes dusting a lot more convenient. I prefer the one with the extended handle. Also, the best dusting cloths are the 360 ones. One thing that would be beneficial would be for the pivotal head on the extended handle to be more flexible so that you could dust at more angles. Also, the cloths tear very easily when placing them on the duster and don't stay put well either. However, the convenience of storage, cleaning, and disposal outweigh the negatives of a few needed upgrades.

Although it's not a substitute for a good furniture polish, these are very helpful to dust high shelves and the tops of picture frames with one swipe. I particuarly like them for a quick touch up before company comes or for the top of the fridge which I will never be able to reach without a step ladder.

MUCH better than traditional feather dusters. I can actually SEE that I'm picking up the dust and that it won't settle back to the same place.

I have allergies and I won't dust any other way. They really get the dust so it doesn't settle back down. I know I'm actually getting the dust out of my house instead of just spreading it around.
