Hi Glenn. Yes, I just ordered one. It connects to regular vacuum attachment hose. For 15 bucks it's worth a try. They must be pretty good as mine is on backorder.


I will review it when it arrives. Cheers, Peter.

Thanks Peter! I'm curious as well...

Cheers, guys.

It was scanned leaving China (what else is new?) last night! Peter.

I've noticed both of them. it should do well if it is attached to your own vacuum cleaner it depends on the suction capability, a 2000 Watt motor should do the job efficiently.

I also saw that youtube video advert. You can get the same thing from amazon for a fraction of what they are selling it for ( https://www.amazon.com/s...rds=vaccuum+dust+cleaner )


The tricky bit, from my looking at the various models, is matching the device to your vacuum cleaner hose, depending on its interior or exterior diameter.
For example for my vaccum, I couldn't find a supported diameter even with the adapters, and that the particular product here doesn't go into the critical dimension at all on the web page is what sent me to Amazon in the first place.

On its surface, if you can get it attached properly to your vacuum's hose, it should work great.

Reading the reviews on Amazon all of them (both positive and negative) talks about stiff bristle (straw like tubes), so I doubt it would be too useful unless they are extremely flexible and can wrap around our delicate models and landscape details. But will be interesting to see the reviews from here.

I use a soft small brush in one hand and vacuum tube in other when dusting my buildings and roads etc.

Best Regards
Lasse

Thanks Peter

Hi, John. Yes, they look big in the photo but they are only 2mm wide. Peter

Hi Lasse. I use the swifter all the time but it does get caught onto pointy edges. I use it mainly on the controls. It's great for general housecleaning.

It's a nice tool, but honestly, the dust can be removed by the vacuum cleaner with a proper nozzle, at least this works for me

The attachment can be had for $5-10 on Amazon. The benefit of that vacuum cleaner attachment is that you can use it to vacuum up the dust that comes loose from your dusting, and is on the scenery and layout flat spaces with a much smaller risk of vacuuming up a small part that might be lying on the layout such as a preiser figure, something that fell off of a wagon or loco or some part from a model. With a traditional vacuum brush, the opening is one much larger one that sucks up a everything smaller than 3-4 cm. The attachment is not for use in wiping the dust from the surfaces as you would do with soft brushes, but more for pulling up the loose dust once you have brushed things off, to suck the dust from the ground, grass, hillsides, around trees and streets - and not also suck up the people, cars, couplings, street lights, road signs, cows, and bits that fell off the trains.
