       10 . The cleaning device of  claim 1 , wherein the cleaning device has a handle that is attached to the shaft and set at an angle to the shaft. 
   
   
       11 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the angle is zero degrees. 
   
   
       12 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the angle is ninety degrees. 
   
   
       13 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the angle is less than ninety degrees and more than zero degrees. 
   
   
       14 . The cleaning device of  claim 10  wherein the angle is greater than ninety degrees but less than or equal to one hundred and eighty degrees. 
   
   
       15 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the handle and the shaft are capable of movement relative to one another. 
   
   
       16 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the handle is attached to one end of the shaft, then is angled at ninety degrees, then angled in the direction of the center of the shaft, then angled back so that the remainder of the handle would transversely intersect the shaft. 
   
   
       17 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the handle is attached to one end of the shaft. 
   
   
       18 . The cleaning device of  claim 10 , wherein the handle is attached in between the ends of the shaft. 
   
   
       19 . The cleaning device of  claim 7 , wherein the shaft is capable of applying pressure to the one or more pieces of paper towels, wet wipes, cloth, or any flexible material suitable or designed for cleaning to a surface to be cleaned.
