Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co., Inc.: Committed to the American Dream
In December of 1939, Hyman Gulker pawned his pocket watch and gave $50 to his daughter and son-in-law, Pearl and Israel Stern. That was the beginning of Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Company, the family's American Dream.
Before he founded Metro, Israel sold vacuum cleaners door to door. He was such a great salesman, in fact, that the president of the last company he worked for offered him $100 to come back into the fold. To the president's great disappointment, however, Israel's wife had the last word. She said, "Nothing doing. We're on our own now!"
Since the day those fateful words were spoken, the Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co., Inc. has grown from a small retail store in Bronx, NY, that sold and repaired vacuum cleaners into a multidivisional corporation with an ever-expanding range of products.

This product seems to be geared towards people in the computer or electronics repair field. As a computer technician here are my thoughts: First , the kind of dust you find in a computer cannot be easily vacuumed up by any vacuum cleaner (except for dust bunnies). the dust is so fine and almost seems electro-statically charged to the surfaces. That said, I like to vacuum up as much as I can before I blow the rest out. the blower works by attaching the hose to the opposite end of the vacuum. I would say the blower is probably more powerful than a can of air but maybe not as powerful as the ED-500 although I don't know for sure because I've never tried the ED-500. What I can say is that the blower is *MORE* than powerful enough to get the job done. I saw some impressive videos with the ED-500 blowing literally "clouds" of dust from computers. This blower does the same. I blew out a computer I thought was pretty clean and I got the same "clouds" of dust out of it (don't do this indoors)
One thing I wanted to mention: I see a lot of videos where people blow out power supplies CPU fans, etc. In these videos you can always hear the fan spinning as air is blown at it. Yes, it sounds really cool, but this is very bad for the fan. What happens is the air is strong enough to over-rev the bearings in the fan and it will lead to premature failure of the fan or even immediate failure (i.e. your fan will start making strange noises right after you are done cleaning it) The proper way to clean a cpu fan, power supply fan, or anything else with a fan is to stick a plastic zip-tie, straw, or any other straight piece of plastic in the blades to block them from spinning while you blow the fan clean. Just don't forget to remove the zip-tie when you are done and don't use any metal objects, especially in the power supply. Even with the computer unplugged there are still dangerous voltages in power supplies.
However: This vacuum heats up very quickly, to the point where even the outlet hose gets warm. I've run it for a few minutes at a time without it getting uncomfortably hot, though. Instructions should probably mention that, as well as safe runtimes. The hose it comes with is short and awkward to use. The shoulder strap just loops around the handle (as far as I can tell, no instructions or obvious attachment points) and is small and frail, and slides around quite a bit. I didn't see a better one around on MV's website, so I'm going to look around for SCUBA tank harnesses or something so I can clean my PC and servers with two available hands. The rubber footpads are on the front only, and not the back. I haven't noticed any stability issues, however. This is also NOT a quiet unit, as it roars and whistles, but for all the power it puts out, it's more than tolerable.
Overall, immensely satisfied and surprised by this unit, and would recommend to any professional.

llego en escelenetes condiciones empacado, producto de maxima calidad, muy satisfecho.
I've been wanting a comp vacuum/compressor for ages to stop using compressed air cans & this works way better
It's unstable and falls over but it doesn't really matter that it remains upright - not enough of a problem for me to dock a star off but I'd love to see that improved in a future model
