The dust remover that I have for the tops of ceiling fans and behind the refrigerator is called "dear husband."
He is willing to move the refrigerator - it gets very gross under it also - to clean thoroughly - and he is willing to climb up and do the ceiling fans.
But if you do not have such a tool available, I would use whatever works. A light dusting of dust is better than a 1/4 inch layer thick of it on refrigerator coils.
Maybe you could get a two-person thing going - one to dislodge the dust and another one to try to catch it near the source. - This does not seem like a very practical solution - but -
It would work in our household because I probably would not hold the vacuum cleaner correctly, or something.

I use my leaf blower to clear snow from my patio. I live in a condo in an area with lots of trees, so it used often for its designed purpose. But, I just whip out the left blower and ta-da a cleared patio so I can feed birds or just keep the snow from turning to that slippery crunchy icy stuff we grow in Michigan.
