The Portable Electric Vacuum/Blower brings together the functions of two separate appliances in one nifty package.

It’s like getting two power tools in one! Clean the kitchen floor one minute…then blow leaves and debris from off the deck the next! This portable electric vacuum/blower is lightweight and easy to handle. Made of metal and powered by a 3HP, 115-volt motor, it has a permanent fabric filter bag with a quick-release clamp that makes it easy to empty. Two ways to carry—use the built-in handle, or snap on the strap and wear it over your shoulder. Includes wall holders for both the vacuum and attachments; a zippered storage bag makes the entire system totally portable. 10′ power cord. Weighs just 8 lbs.

It is available for $129 from Solutions. While there aren’t any more fall leaves to blow away, you’d best keep your carpets clean before the guests throng into your home this Christmas.
