Ok, I haven't use the tools a lot, but from the amount that I have used them I did find them very useful. The reviews that state the tools "just push the dirt around", are most likely wondering why their lawn mower doesn't cut the long grass in only one swipe. I have an entertainment stand that has very dark smoked glass and the long duster worked great. I was able to remove the dust easier and quicker than if I used a cloth. Actually, when I did use a moist cloth it would leave streaks of dust behind causing me to go over it again. The long dusting tool worked very effectively and efficiently on the glass and even on the uneven brick fireplace hearth. Another nice feature is that it has a relatively low profile. I was able to get between things where there was limited space between them. The picture of this item is a bit deceiving, I think. It looks as though the bristles (which are soft, but not so soft as to loose their rigidity, which is necessary for certain uses) are pointing down, but in actuality they angle down just a bit and flare out to the sides. At first I didn't think this was going to be effective for dusting, but soon found out it was a good feature. I was able to use the forward facing bristles to get into tight crevices and move the dust out into the vacuum air stream.The angled tool for high places took only a few moments to figure out how to adjust to what angle I needed to do a specific job, so I could easily get at the ceiling fan blades, book case top and any other high, or hard to reach places. Unlike a review which mentions how the tool would loose the adjusted angle during dusting, I had no such problem. Both the head and angled tube have four nice locking points, which do a very good job of securing the head to the angle I needed. I can understand the head moving during use, but only if you put unnecessary side pressure against the tool when dusting.Now for the last tool, the hard bristle tool. I was just a bit disappointed with the width of the tool. Again the picture is deceptive in that without actual dimensions I thought all the tools were larger. However, the size is adequate and the bristles are firmer than the other two tools. As of right now I'm not too sure as to what uses I will find for this tool, but I'm sure I will find a use for it.There is one more additional item, which is an adapter to use with some Dysons that the tools won't attach to right out of the box. My Dyson is the DC33 and the tools did work right out of the box.So, just to help you with your decision whether to order the set or not, here are the tool dimensions:Main dusting tool bristle area is 8" long, 2-1/2" wide, and angle down 1/2". There are two vacuum openings on the brush side: one 1" oval at the front of the brush and one 1/2" circular one near the back. On the brush underside there is also a very short bristled felt type pad to help from scratching delicate surfaces.Angled tool bristle area is 4-3/4" long, 2" wide, and angle down 3/4". It too has the same vacuum opening style, with the non-scratch pad. The tool itself is 7-1/4" long and 3-1/2" high, with the ability to point the bristles almost any direction.Hard bristle tool bristle area is 3-3/4" wide, 1-3/4" long, and angle down 3/4". It has a full underside opening and no scratch pad.The adapter is overall 3-1/2" long, 1/2 of the adapter fits into the end of the hose. The other half has a tool locking button.Some reviewers would have liked a bag to store the tools in, but I found the box works perfect for this and stores easily.In conclusion, the tools perform well and are a necessary addition to the vacuum. I highly recommend purchasing this kit.
