My floor fan is covered in dust (both the propellers and the outside grate). What is the best way to clean off the dust? I tried dryer sheets (to attract the dust), but it didn't really work. Thanks for your help!

Unplug it and unscrew the face grates off.
Take the grates to the tub and use a good ole' brush to it with some hot water and soap.
Wipe the fan blades off with a damp rag. Be careful to not get the motor wet.
Let the fan dry fully before putting the grates back on.
Your fan should look a whole lot better!

First off, take it outside. Use a blower attachment from a vaccum cleaner and git-r-done!
If that doesn't work, try a duster like you would use on a ceiling fan.

Spray it with degrease fomula and then spray it with a hose.

get somebody else to do it...perhaps, like radioactively mutated flying monkeys.

use a small broom and sweep everything out!
