Metro Data Vac
The employee who had me purchase this has not yet used it but I am assuming that it will work great.

unbelievably bad
SO disappointing! With the amount of noise this thing makes (you literally might need hearing protection) you'd think it was the best vacuum ever and well you'd be wrong. I couldn't believe how little it actually picked up. On top of that after 10 minutes of use there was an obvious burning/electrical smell and the housing was too hot to touch. Geez. Maybe your ex...

seems solid
Have only used this item a bit but it seems sturdy. Better as a vacuum than as a blower. The variety of attachments makes it versatile.

Excellent vacuum
This is the 2nd turbo vacuum I’ve owned. I use it for electronic field service work! It’s the best by far I’ve found!

Good Little Workhorse
Portable and light weight. Powerful suction and blower for cleaning our CPU keyboard etc. in the office. Also for our passport system in cashier booth. Our only disappointment with the unit is that it is difficult to find replacement bags for it.

Great Tool
Very handy tool to clean computer and other office equipment. Works great. A little bit pricy. Not much selection to chose from.

Metro DataVac
It is a powerful little vacuum that seems to work great for cleaning the fans from our computers the keyboards and small nooks and crannies that the regular vaccum doesn't reach.

Real Power!
For years we have been in search of a portable vacuum for our maintenance on small compressors in the field. Had to try this one since it is the same as our blowers that we use for quick inflates on air mattresses in the homes. This one did not disappoint! It has Real Power! Bags are not that difficult to change and it is easy to use. Yes you need a plug but you are not...

Works good but cheaply built.
This machine works fine and is pretty powerful but is cheaply built and the packaging was inferior. The sucking (bag) end has a bad latching system (twist to lock) which is not super tight and can easily come undone while using if the user is not careful. The blowing end is held on by two screws and is not tight. They should have used screws in both ends and made ...

Finally a powerful data vacuum
The older model Data-Vac from years ago had extremely poor suction. This model with a 4.5 amp motor is five times more powerful. Great product!

Great vacuum for it's size
The vacuum does a great job of removing dust and debris from computer cases and even works as a replacement to canned air! One of the best small vacuums I've used.

Absolutely loved it!
I work for a business with 200+ computers which I am responsible for. Canned air was used in the past for the cleaning portion of my job. (Very expensive and not effective enough.) I am extremely satisfied with the Metro Data Vac after going through the spring cleaning process of all 200+ pc's! The blower function of the vac did a fantastic job on the keyboards interer...

Very Nice Powerful Compact Vacuum
I have a cluttered office desk and it is perfect to clean that without moving a lot of stuff. No need to get the big clumsy house vacuum to do the job. Several sizes and styles of cleaning nozzles make the job easier. Powerful exhaust blast out the rear can blow things around if your not careful where it is pointed.
