This looks great! I'm also glad that you mention to not use can air. A gentle reminder to oil those machines.

[@SewSewLounge]

It works well! I’m never sure where to oil my machine-I need to check the manual.

[@ScarlettGraceDesigns]

I need this in my life. And a second one for my other craft room, where glitter is a nightmare

[@SewSewLounge]

The glitter struggle is real! 🤣 Plus it’s fun to use! There is great satisfaction seeing how much lint it sucks up.

[@janetcorder44]

I’m glad to see a demonstration on one of these vacuum. I’ve been wanting one and now I see that it would work. Thanks for sharing with us!!!

[@SewSewLounge]

There are a variety of models out there and this is the one I liked best 😊

[@janetcorder44]

I just ordered this vacuum via your link! Thanks for sharing!!😊

[@AmyMLevy]

My rechargeable vacuum is about half that size, with much smaller-tipped attachments. It was marketed for cleaning computer keyboards and computer/printer air vents (which get surprisingly dirty). I couldn't tell you where I got it though, since I've had it for many years.

[@SewSewLounge]

Yeah mini attachments are super helpful. I had a set for my Dyson but when it died they didn’t fit the new one.

[@daxxydog5777]

That’s what I have!

[@arlenemurphy804]

Thank you I bought a similar product to clean my sewing machine and Serger about a week ago. I only wish that the attachments were a little smaller to get into the machines. My serger only opens from the front for cleaning. love how you have more access on yours. Love your videos

[@SewSewLounge]

You're welcome! I hope it makes your cleaning easier 😉

[@dimples7334]

I use a cosmetic brush with the vacuum.

[@SewSewLounge]

Nice!

[@kitikatter]

@@SewSewLounge Me too. You brush out and it sucks up the fluff

[@cynthiamorianti3719]

I too have one and I used it to clean my Juki and my serger. Game changer.

[@SewSewLounge]

Yes! Total game changer.

[@janellvincent8046]

I have a similar one and love it.

[@SewSewLounge]

It’s so useful!!

[@ZeldaSews]

Hi Toni! As a cool little vacuum!❤

[@SewSewLounge]

I’m glad you liked it! It’s been a game-changer for me.

[@cynthiamorianti3719]

Also, I use a small craft painting brush with my vacuum to help losen the fuzz.

[@SewSewLounge]

I'll have to try that! Thanks for the tip.

[@kitikatter]

I bought one for my car a year ago. Since 2 weeks ago, it now lives right NEXT to my sewing machine in my sewing room. I had 2 nightmare orders with fraying fabrics, the last one was a pre quilted fabric for cushion covers. I vacuumed after every cushion cover. I wish that pointy nozzle fit in the front to vacuum with.

[@kitikatter]

And I just suck the filter clean with my large vacuum, much quicker.

[@SewSewLounge]

I’m very happy with the way it cleans my machine. And yes I totally wish the small brush worked with the vacuum side.

[@tinamcnalley2575]

This is great if you don't have a small vacuum. If you do have a vacuum, Harbor Frieght usually stocks the tiny attachments for around $8.

[@SewSewLounge]

Good tip! I have a Dyson and it’s very particular about attachments.

[@NadoCrowFriend]

I quickly ordered this for a XMas gift, after seeing your video- then saw on Amazon that this item is frequently returned by customers. Ugh! Hope it’s as good as you found it to be.

[@SewSewLounge]

It’s working for me for the purpose of cleaning my sewing machine. It’s also listed as a car vacuum, which seems like a stretch on its capabilities. Maybe that’s why it gets returned 🤷🏽‍♀️
