http://www.gizmag.com August 7, 2005 Somewhere between a miniature hovercraft and a traditional vacuum cleaner, the AIRIDER has been nine years in development. While we’re not sure why it took so long, it is nonetheless a very good idea because one of the most difficult aspects of cleaning is dragging the vacuum around behind you and with a cushion of air making the machine frictionless, there’s no effort required to drag it around. Apart from floating an eighth of an inch off the floor, the bag-less design also reduces clogging and increases performance, with a claimed suction speed of 200 miles per hour.en gizmag.com http://www.gizmag.com/go/4383/#comment-85090 http://www.gizmag.com/go/4383/#comment-85090 Wed, 12 Oct 2011 07:09:58 -0500 http://www.gizmag.com/go/4383/#comment-4144 http://www.gizmag.com/go/4383/#comment-4144 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 03:40:41 -0500
