Cleaning Baseboards

I am looking at various tools on Amazon used to clean baseboards. I use the extension brush on my vacuum, but it doesn’t seem to get into the nooks very well. I need something that can be used while standing. It’s too hard on my back to kneel or bend over for long.

I use a long handled whisk broom followed by my vacuum attachment.

Long-handled lambswool duster: Classic Wool Dusters - Wool Shop

I have this one - its tall and the head pivots so can clean the baseboard and the edge of the floor that abuts it in one sweep: Lambswool Dust Mop (Wedge-Style) - Wool Shop

We live in the country and get a lot of dust, and a kitchen broom is the best by far., then vacuum up the dust that comes off the baseboards.

The bristles gets it all, and no shaking out a dust mop. Which I use but not for baseboards.
