Dusting may seem like one of the easier cleaning jobs, but it’s actually pretty hard to get all of the little particles onto your duster and away from your coffee tables and cabinets.

However, cleaning fans have discovered a “magical dusting tool” that wipes up all the dust, dirt and debris - and it won’t leave anything behind.

The Scrub Daddy Damp Duster, which is sold for as little as $8.79 for a packet of two, is unlike many dusting buys on the market.

This is because you use the ridged side of the sponge to attract all of your dust and dirt that usually flies away.

The small rectangular product is extremely lightweight and just the right size to fit in the palm of your hand.

This means it’s perfect for quick clean-ups of your tables as well as more heavy-duty dusting, such as your shutters or blinds.

The viral cleaning product has more than 5,000 glowing reviews on Amazon, where it holds an impressive 4.4 star rating.

Shoppers have described the Damp Duster as everything from “amazing” to a “lifesaver product”.

Many have highlighted how much they like the fact that you can use it again and again, by simply rinsing it out under cold water when you’re finished dusting.

“Best cleaning product I have probably used for dust. Life changer honestly. Cleans dust without spreading it into the air, and easily washes off the product. Everyone needs one,” one reviewer wrote.

“I was really curious about this duster. But it grabs so much dust, and the best part is it sticks to it instead of just floating around like normal feather dusters tended to do for me. Will re-purchase when I need a new one! (I’ve had this one for a couple months and it’s still in perfect condition),” another added.

A third said: “I thought I would try this odd looking thing and found it superior to a duster. I was stunned by how much more it picked up than a swiffer or using microfibre rags”.

The Damp Duster even comes approved by British cleaning pro, Mrs Hinch, who showed it off on her Instagram page alongside her healthy Scrub Daddy collection.

Sophie Hinchcliffe often uses the non-scratch sponge to polish surfaces like the shower tray, shower screen and sinks.

Others have shown how it can be used to clean your shower, using warm water, washing-up liquid and white vinegar along with the Damp Duster to scrub the shower clean.

It also has 1.7 million TikTok views under the hashtag #Scrubdaddydampduster.

The Damp Duster is just one of a range of products in the acclaimed Scrub Daddy range.

The Scrub Daddy Original Cleaning Sponge, which sells for $4.50 on Amazon, is unlike countless other sponges on the market, insofar as the unique tool changes based on your water temperature.

While the sponge remains firm when you use cold water, allowing you to carry out tough scrubbing, its patented FlexTexture material goes soft in warmer water for lighter cleaning - all without any harmful or toxic chemicals.

Once you’ve used the Scrub Daddy Sponge, it simply rinses free of debris, resisting lingering odours and stains.

Others swear by the Scrub Daddy Power Paste for keeping their homes sparkling clean, as well as the newer Scrub Mommy Sponge, which claims to “combine smile face ergonomics with a dual sided design for the ultimate clean”.

The Scrub Daddy company first made headlines when its American founder Aaron Krause debuted the product on Shark Tank USA in October 2012.

The company is now reportedly worth $US170 million (or $A235 million), according to CEO Magazine.
