GMC dust buster with an elliptical shape

GMC-dust-buster.jpg When I first set eyes on the GMC dust buster, I thought it was a new design of some model spaceship. (at least it looked so in the pictures) It has a horizontally elliptical shape, which is quite an interesting look for a domestic dust buster really! Its handle is positioned directly over the vacuum cleaner’s weight, so it’s easy to maneuver. It is also equipped with a fold-away nozzle that makes the product safer and more appropriate to the kitchen environment.
