Unfortunately, vacuum cleaner dusting brushes do not remove all the dust from all surfaces. As the people who invented the Swiffer floor mop have proven, suction and brushes can not remove the electrostatically-charged fine dust particles that cling to bare floors, furniture and venetian blinds.
I love dusting with my vacuum cleaner to remove about 50% of the loose litter and dust on surfaces. But after that, you need to use a wiping cloth of some sort to remove the fine dust particles. For floors, the Swiffer Vac and all the new vac tools that combine suction with a cloth do a great job in tandem. For venetian blinds and miniblinds, you can vacuum first with those special blind attachments, but this must be followed with a damp rag to really get them spotless. I find dusting brushes can work well on wide fabric-covered vertical blinds though... |

The dusting brush bristles need to be replaced with natural horsehair bristles |
