Description
This compact desk vacuum plugs into a USB port and gets to work on the crumbs, dust and small bits of debris that gather on a desk and between the keys of a keyboard. It is a little handheld design with a bright turquoise body and a smoky, see-through dust chamber, so you can tell at a glance when it needs emptying. It measures 15.8cm long, 4.7cm wide and 5.5cm tall and weighs just 0.083KG, so it sits easily in one hand and tucks into a drawer when the job is done. A brush head and a flat nozzle fit over the tip, one for sweeping dust from between the keys and one for narrow gaps.
We like it for any desk, at home or in the office, where a laptop, keyboard or notebook gathers the day's crumbs. A quick pass over the keys clears dust that a cloth would only push around, and it is just as handy for a desktop after lunch or a drawer of pens and paperclips. Because it runs from a computer's USB port, it can live right beside the screen, ready whenever it is needed. It makes a practical little gift too, the kind of useful gadget that earns its place on a desk.
Power comes through its USB lead, about 1.5 metres long, which plugs into a 5V USB-A port on a computer or an extension lead, or into a 5V USB-A power adapter, which is not included. The dust chamber is bagless, so there are no bags to buy: press the release button to detach it, then pour the contents straight into the bin. It is made from plastic and metal, and a wipe with a soft dry cloth keeps it looking fresh. Keep it by your laptop and give the keys a once-over at the end of each day.
