The Swiffer Duster is a dry-dust specialist — don't bring it near the sink

The Swiffer Duster is a dry-dust specialist — don’t bring it near the sink.

It’s brilliant at trapping loose dust on blinds, shelves, and baseboards. But try using it on wet dust or sticky grime and you’ll just smear the mess around. Know your duster’s limits: dry only. For anything damp, grab the cloth.
