These sound fantastic. What I would like to know is can you use them to do a lot of dusting or are they for like dusting one fan then need to be washed? Thks M

I don't recommend these for more than a quick once over on an item or two. Definiteky did not perform well enough for me to use a second time.

I used them for wiping down my tv, some picture frames and my computer, then I went outside and clapped my hands together (with the gloves on;)) a few times and was able to wipe another table or two. It depends how dusty your things are, but I would say these aren't really designed for heavy dusting but rather the "awkward" objects.

Yes and you can actually wash them.....just shake it well after removing it from the drum and then hand wash it. Let it air dry. It's just like new again. I don't know how many times one can be washed. I usually rewash until they start to look a little frayed.

They work great for the purpose you described. Just make sure they are clean to avoid and abrasion. Also, wash clothes separately. DW

I use them mowing lawn on a riding lawnower. They cut down on the noise a lot. I have used one pair most of the summer with frequent washing.

Well, weird as it may seem, I am looking for a fan that actually makes a noticeable hum/sound. We use it as a sound conditioner and to drown out external noise when sleeping. Does anyone know of one that would meet that requirement? Ours is about to quit, and it is not the time of year to find one in a retail store. Thank you.

MUCH better! They pick up dust that the Swiffer types leave behind. It doesn't take as long to dust. They fit into places that the Swiffer types cannot. They do not leave lint like some of the disposables do. They are washable (if desired...I just smack mine against each other...releases the dust perfectly). Their re-usability makes them environmentally friendly. I have had mine for about 3-4 months and LOVE them! Will never go back to disposables.

They are still being used in the air purifier and I'll have to let you when we will need to get another one. If you use your sweeper piece to clean this out it lasts longer.

They have been for me. I don't use them every day, and they do need to be washed by hand, but I'm very happy with them after six months of use. They clean up like a dream.

They are better as a radiator fan or heatsink. They could work as an intake if you have a lot of hard drives or wires in the way. They have a lot of pressure AND move a lot of air at full speed. Many other fans tend to do one or the other. For case fans you will tend to want high air flow and not worry so much about pressure. Fans with high pressure and high airflow will tend to create more noise and are not ideal for case fans for that reason, so if you HAVE to use one, probably exhaust.

I use them to filter out dust, even though they do have little accordion folds. I would go for something with a bit more face coverage to filter out germs.

A box of the Swiffer dry dusting cloths will come in handy for this. I use a single layer in front of my computer air intake fans, do the same with any of these fans. It won't look very pretty, but they work well to keep dirt out.

To the best of my knowledge, they cannot be washed. We've had ours for about 6 mos., and are about to consider changing. If your don't have a real serious dust problem, I'd say 6-7 months would be about the life of this filter.

Hi Shannon, I just shake mine out. They say that you can wash it, but mine doesn't get that dirty. I love mine and it makes dusting so much easier. I hope this helps. Judy

I use mine a few nights and they work well. I have longer hair so I have to make sure my hair is out of the way otherwise my hair sticks in them. They work really well though. I've never tried washing them nor would I cause you mush them around too much in/at your ear so if theirs dirt/grease it's all mushed in the stuff. That's like trying to wash dirt mixed in a piece of gum. No, just toss them.

I have not tried to put them in the washing machine, because I do not have one. But I have washed the fan and duster attachments by hand. That worked just fine.

The dusters are wonderful. I use mine each morning. It has a duster pole which I bought at the grocery store. I use it for dusting furniture as well. The more you use them, the more uses you will find for them.

Depends on how dusty the conditions are.It's best to clean them after each use.Order washable filters from Amazon and be done with it.
