“This duster is a perfect solution for anyone with back or knee/leg issues because it reaches just about anything in your home,” wrote one customer.
“Worked exactly as advertised. I have 15-foot vaulted ceilings and worked great to clean off my 94-inch fan without climbing up a ladder,” said another purchaser.
Not even dust-collecting fabric headboards were safe from the cleaning pro as she shared her next tip.

She used the roller all over her own piece of furniture until the dust had disappeared.
Her fans were also floored by how she was able to clean everything from her floors to her fans.
