Just used the duster yesterday noon to clean up my PC. here is my review and thoughts;

Pros...
1. very handy and well built. the main body is made of Metal, feels very solid.
2. Cord is pretty long, abt 3m i guess
3. very strong airflow in the context of blowing on the PC.. dun expect it to blow leaf away of course :D
4. It's so small that storage is very very simple.
5. It blows away everything that is dusty, with a small catch.

Cons
1. the cord is 2 pin-rounded fat type.. meaning u need an adapter or change the plug urself.
2. It can be a little concern if you are worried about heat.. as using under 1 minute u will feel the thing is hot, but it is not scorching hot type, so not to worry.
3. It cannot do miracle.. if you have dirt that is well there for days/weeks/months.. it wont miraclously blow it away.. still need to clean manually.. e.g. those dirt stuck in your filter... u still need to wash it.

OMG, how did i miss it.. :s22: I remember it wasnt this price when i checked before i ordered from B&H ... anyway the price looks so freaking tempting !

Going to create a MO in Vr-Zone... plesae check there or pm me if you interested... only about $80 sgd each !!

I would buy if can used more often...but buying a blower that cost $80 but used once in 6 months seems expensive to me.(I have no need to blow other stuff)
In comparison, my vacuum cleaner is more worth while...I use it every week.
in addition, you create a mess when you blow a dust storm.

In the end I got mine for free!
Turns out Amazon doesn't have the 220V one and they shipped the 120V one to me (when their website stated 220V - which they updated to 120V after they shipped mine).

I took it up with the customer service and they refunded me the item in full :s22:

I refused to.
Don't have time to bring it to post office or wait for UPS guy to come pick up - too busy with work.

Did they chase you for the shipment ? honestly it's really so much hassle for customers to bear especially when it's due to a screw up on their side.


but yet they gave u a refund

It's the least they should do.. they screw up big time and from my conversation with them they never ever admit their mistakes.. just say they are reviewing their advertisement etc.. but they know jolly well they screwed up what they listed on the website.

Ya... and with the cost of the stepdown, you could have bought a 220v from B&H instead.

incorrect...he got it only for the cost of a stepdown . quite worth it.

yes, provided you dont return the stuff back to amazon... but i'm still contemplating if it's a good move lah.... will they take action if you dun return their stuff to them ?
