The OXO Microfiber Delicate Duster is specifically engineered for sensitive surfaces like electronics, glass curios, and high-gloss finishes. It uses an electrostatic PET-microfiber blend that captures dust through van der Waals forces, reducing the need for mechanical scrubbing. The signature "Good Grips" handle features a thermoplastic overmold that provides a comfortable, non-slip hold and dampens vibration during use.
Designed for comfort and adjustability, the internal core is a flexible polypropylene spine that withstands repetitive bending. However, the head's large profile means it may not fit into gaps narrower than 1.5 inches. Because the microfiber relies on its fine structure to trap dust, it is important to wash the head in cold water and air-dry it; high heat can melt the fibers and reduce their effectiveness.
Build quality and usability reports indicate that while the duster is excellent for fine particles, it is too flexible for "caked-on" grime. The snap-and-lock head attachment ensures the duster stays in place during use but requires OXO-specific refills when the original head eventually wears out after many wash cycles.
For high-reach tasks beyond your arm's length, the Swiffer 3ft Extended Duster offers more vertical reach.
