Anyone here had or knew someone who had a Dustbuster in the 80s or 90s?  Back in the mid-late 90s by grandmother did.

They are great, especially for small spills.  I hate hauling out the regular vaccuum cleaner.

My 6th grade teacher had one of those for the classroom, so of course I had to get one. Anyway, I found it in our garage a few months ago, now it's back in use.

I still use mine.  Also, the best thing since the dustbuster is a wet/dry/carpet shampooer just the same size!!!  So much easier than dragging out the big shampooer for spills and such.

Do they still make em?  I've heard they were around in the eighties but I saw commercials for them in the latter 90s even.

I completely forgot about it, it's like a new childhood memory now :D

According to the Black and Decker website, they still do.
