Floor Duster Buyer’s Guide
A floor duster is a versatile and affordable cleaning tool, capable of clearing all those dust bunnies that congregate in corners and under the TV stand! Floor dusters usually come with a long handle, so you can dust without bending down and hurting your back.
There’s a range of floor dusters on the market. Not sure what to look for when it comes to the best floor duster? Check out this buyer’s guide.
Material
Floor dusters are usually made from either cotton or microfibre, with either a plastic or metal handle. Cotton dusters often have waxed fibres which cling to dust, and they can be cleaned in warm water after use.
Microfibre dusters can be used both wet and dry. These remove large amounts of dust, dirt and bacteria and, if used wet, there’s no need for expensive cleaning chemicals. Microfibre dusters usually have a removable head that can be cleaned in the washing machine after use.
Design
Floor dusters come in a range of designs. Those designed for large rooms will be bigger, while most have a flexible joint between the duster and handle so you can slide it flat underneath furniture. Many have 360-degree rotation for added ease of use.
Some floor dusters can also be used to clean skirting boards. Usually these have flexible foldable sides, so you can get right into the edge of the floor while simultaneously cleaning your skirting boards.
Handle
Floor dusters are specifically designed for ease of use, so the handle should be long enough that you don’t need to crouch down. Many dusters have a telescopic handle so you can set it at the perfect height. A collapsible handle will make your floor duster far easier to store.
Conclusion
A floor duster makes it easy to rid your floor of unwanted dust, dirt and pet hair. For its wide 46cm dusting width, 360-degree swivel head and long 120cm handle, the Home Valet Waxed Floor Duster is our top recommendation.
