To help us keep away the dust from forming again after cleaning, domestic economist Urte Paaßen gives us the following suggestions.
Damp Cotton Cloth
When combatting the grey stuff, a soft, slightly damp cotton cloth works best, so that dust is not kicked up during wiping.
Microfiber Cloth
Thanks to their antistatic effect, microfiber cloths are also well suited to the task. This is because dust particles adhere to the cloth without the need for moisture, this makes them the ideal cloth for use on water-sensitive furniture. But be careful when it comes to high-gloss furniture, it may be scratched or become matt as a result of microfiber cloths.

Vacuum Cleaner
Coarse dirt on shelf surfaces and chests of drawers can also be removed using a vacuum cleaner with a soft furniture brush, such as the VC 3 from Kärcher.

Carpets, curtains and even bedclothes are real dust magnets. This is why carpets should be vacuumed regularly and beddings to be taken outdoors for cleaning so that the particles are not spread throughout the home. Also, curtains should be washed several times per year.
Kärcher 3 in 1 Vacuum Spray Extractor SE4001 is an ideal cleaning machine that can spray the detergent into the fabric of sofa, curtains, car seats, carpets etc. and vacuum back the dirt instantly cleaning it inside out, requiring very little time to dry.
