 Do you ever wounder what it took to come up with your vacuum cleaner?  Do you ever think about what it was like with out one?  I could not live with out a vacuum cleaner.  If you have kids you know what I mean.

The production of vacuum cleaners was an important technology to many designers. In 1868, Ives W. McGaffey created the Whirlwind vacuum cleaner. Although it was lightweight and small, it was hard to use because a person was required to use a hand crank while pushing the vacuum around. Its cost was $25, which was considered very expensive in those days.
