I was impressed that the microfiber head did not shed but....
it does become a matted mess after just a few uses.  The handle is a good length, I am able to reach everything I need to as I live in a house with tall ceilings.  The microfiber does seem to pick up and hold on to what it attracts and lets go of it when shaken or fluffed.  The most frustrating thing for me is that the head seems to spin as you are using it.  I have not attempted to wash the microfiber head yet as I've only used it 3 times so I'll update after that process.
