    Default Who has a Swiffer Duster?

    Do you actually use it and how well does it work?

    I bought a box because I had a good coupon. Use it twice and not sure how I like it. It is great for getting under the VCR and other stereo equipment. I used it on the wood blinds and was not impressed.

    I will probably go back to using old socks again. I hate the thought of thowing the dustcloth in the landfill when I can wash the sock and use it again and again.

    I have one and used it under the tv, worked great! Thanks for the heads up on mini-blinds Carolyn, I'm going to try that as my vacuum cleaner does a lousy job on mini-blinds.

    I wasn't that impressed with it. I used to use Swiffer cloths to dust, and they have much more surface area to pick up dust. I'm going to go back to using the cloths.

    I use them and I like them. I too wish that you could buy a refill pack. I think I have about 5 handles now.

      Ditto here, haven't tried it yet though.  Hadn't even noticed that you can't buy refills...

    Gosh, it sure seems wasteful on their part not to have a refill package available. I have not tried them but if I find a good coupon and a good sale I will give them a shot. I just use DH old flannel shirts and lemon Pledge for dusting now.

    I have tried them. I like them and have dusted more since getting them. I never noticed that you couldn't get refills. That seems silly!
