Microfiber Wand

When was the last time you cleaned under the fridge? Me, too. Yuck. So today I tried the Casabella® Microfiber Wand and am pleased to report it not only passes the muster cleaning gunk from under appliances, but it's an excellent duster. This handy little tool is slim and easy to handle, making it efficient for dusting hard-to-reach bookshelves, radiators, baseboard heaters and other tough spots. I used a vacuum attachment to clean the microfiber head between uses, but it can ultimately be machine washed and air dried and refill heads can be purchased when necessary. But the best thing about the Casabella® Microfiber Wand is that dust and dirt cling to the fabric rather than flying into the air or in your face. You can order the wand directly from the manufacturer for $9.99 plus shipping. We also discovered that it's available through the following retailers (but call first): Bed Bath & Beyond, Wild Oats, Cost Plus World Market, Container Store and select hardware outlets.

Unlike with a typical digital thermometer, temperature readings from a temporal artery thermometer are not affected by drinking, coughing, talking or mouth breathing.
