    It definitely comes in handy. That thin straw can get into all the little crevices too.

    I have small air compressor. Much better than canned air. Plus your hands don`t get cold

    Re: canned compressed air

    At the price of canned air I just can`t see that as practical in a commercial environment.

    Great here at home to dust off my laptop but detailing an interior? No Effing way.

    The Metro Vac comes with micro cleaning tool kit.

    A suggestion. Remove the cabin filter prior to blowing air down the vent chutes. It makes the job easier and reminds you to change that dirty filter.

    Yes I do, better than compressed air from the aerosol can in every way I can think of.

    Considering both are made by metro and all I can see different is more HP in the sidekick, I would imagine so

    Jtford, actually the only inconvenience I can think of is needing an electrical outlet.
