Crumby Vacuum
Crumby Vacuum is a miniature vacuum which is designed to teach children how to clean up their messes by working to vacuum up smaller messes. Small in size, these cleaners can be used to pick up small crumbs spilled in a kitchen or work place. They can be used to pick up debris left behind on a computer keyboard too. With such an adorable outer shell, they don’t draw attention to themselves as a cleaning product when left out in the open for storage.
Total Cost Breakdown
The cost of Crumby Vacuum is $9.95 plus $5.95 shipping, for a total price of $15.90.
Price is from As Seen on TV Commercial page: trycrumbyvac.com
How It Works
Crumby Vacuum come in different critter designs including a turtle, bumblebee, and ladybug. This allows for families to purchase more than one, giving each child in the home a different design.
The vacuum is perfect for picking up spilled sugar or coffee on counters, sawdust on a workbench, crumbs on a car seat or couch, glitter spills on a craft table, and more. It is easily operated and highly effective for the size of messes it is intended to clean.
Features
- Claims
Lightweight.
Fits in the hand, and can be comfortably moved around. Perfectly safe for small children. A great teaching tool for children. Decently powered 12,000 RPM micro-vortex motor. Needs two AA batteries.
Positive Points
- Cost
The vacuum itself costs just under ten dollars, with the additional six for shipping and handling. What’s nice is that the company offers a gift of buy one get one free ( with double the shipping costs ) and the option to opt out of that offer. You can also find the vacuum in stores, if you don’t feel like paying the shipping but the cost will roughly equal the cost of ordering it online with shipping.
- Effective
As its name implies, this particular product is perfect for the smallest of messes, particularly those small areas of dust or crumbs left behind after a meal. Coupled with a cute character design, these machines are targeted toward children. The reason being, each vacuum is not intended to replace a traditional cleaner, or even a hand held cleaner. Instead, they are meant to aid children in learning the basics of cleaning up the small messes they might make.
Alternatives
- Traditional
The alternatives to this include traditional vacuum cleaners. Traditional cleaners will clean up a bigger mess, and there is nothing to prevent children from using them. Cleaning can be made fun without a cute bug design. It is better to teach children to clean up their messes with something large enough in size to grow with them as the size of their mess grows too.
- Handheld
Handheld vacuums are those which can also teach children how to clean up their smaller messes and can be easily integrated into an office setting too. They do not stick out when stored, nor do they take up a lot of room.
- Laptop
These are small and cute in character the same as the bug line. They are meant to clean off laptops in the same way that this small product does. With a little laptop vac, small crumbs and debris can be wiped away.
Warnings
- Heat
The device tends to get warm if it has been running for a long time. However, this issue is one which most users won’t ever experience. This is because of the fact that the size of messes for which this product is designed are not extensive enough to warrant use long enough for overheating to occur.
Overall, this is a wonderful gift idea especially for small children but it is not meant to replace any existing product.

Changing Batteries
Our Crumby works great, but we can't tell how to change the batteries since it seems like the top isn't made to come off, which is where the batteries are.
