How long will Dusting Mitt last?Updated 3 hours ago
TL;DR: Treated kindly, Dusting Mitt stays fluffy for around 50 cold-wash cycles before you’ll notice reduced dust pickup.
Lab-tested durability
Our chenille polyester mitt was wash-tested under gentle, cold-cycle conditions. Results:
- ≈ 50 washes with minimal fibre flattening
- Dust pickup remained >90% of new until ~wash 40
Maximising lifespan
- 🧺 Wash cold, gentle cycle; hot water shortens fibre life.
- 🚫 Skip fabric softener & bleach—they clog the dust-grabbing fingers.
- 💨 Air-dry flat or hang; never tumble-dry.
- 🔄 Shake between tasks to release dust and reduce wash frequency.
End-of-life tip
When the mitt finally loses its fluff, repurpose it for greasy garage or outdoor jobs, or check local textile-recycling programs that accept 100% polyester items.
