Pros: - It's nice and easy to use
Cons: - The suck power is not good
- Does not remove almost dust only very small particles
- The power plug doesn't fit on the hole very well
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Well, this is a nice dust sucker but it doesn't work as expected because it doesn't remove all the dust from my keyboard. The built quality is average and as i've said before, the power plug doesn't fit well on its hole. The sucking power is very low (even pressing the turbo button) so it's not very useful if you have breadcrumbs or other particles not very small
It sucks, like it should!

Pros: -It's small.
-It sucks well enough.
-The brush on it helps get off "finger dirt" from laptop keys.(Very useful!)
-The LED light on the front is very bright.
Cons: -The power cord is very short.
-The turbo button's placement makes your hand tired when using it.
-The plastic is cheap.
-It can't suck up cat hair(Although I don't think it was made to do that anyway)
Other Thoughts: For a tiny vacuum it works alright. I use it mainly for cleaning up the dirt I get out from under keyboards after using a can of air duster on it. It's also useful for helping get crud out from optical mice.
Bottomline: I'd recommend it, but don't expect it to be like a Hoover vacuum or something you'd sweep the floor with.
Never so clean

Pros: - Bright light.
- It really cleans!
- Easy to clean the repository.
- Easy to use.
- Never saw my keyboard so clean!
Cons: - Short usb cable.
- The buttons are of low quality.
- Hard to close when you open to clean the repository.
- The suck power is not so great, so I always use it holding the turbo button.
Other Thoughts: Best to use it with a usb charger for stronger sucking power.
Bottomline: It is really cheap, easy to use and useful. If you want to clean your desk and your keyboard it really helps. With a usb charger it becomes even more strong, I really recommends it.
Handy tool for getting those breadcrumbs away

Pros: - Cheap
- Does what it's said to do. It sucks up all those breadcrumbs you (or your colleagues) spill on your keyboard.
- Easy to use. Plug it in and switch it on.
Cons: - It does not feel very sturdy
- Noisy
- The brush is quite hard to slide out.
Other Thoughts: Sometimes when turning it off lots of what you've just sucked in, falls out again, unless you hold it with the inlet pointing upwards. Emptying it immediately after use avoids this problem.
Bottomline: It's one of those things every computer user should have. Keyboards just aren't happy with breadcrumbs spilled in them. For your day to day PC cleaning this just the tool.
