Sanitaire SC412 Backpack Vacuum

Sanitaire SC412

The Sanitaire SC412-A, also dubbed as the ‘commercial backpack’ vacuum cleaner, is designed for quick and light cleaning applications, most particularly in hard-to-reach areas. Although it is important for this model to be lightweight and handy, performance is still a tricky issue since it has to be able to get rid of all kinds of dirt and debris in just a short time. That’s why Sanitaire decided to pack a lot of punch into this unique offer.

But why is it called a ‘backpack’? Well, it’s simply because it comes with an ergonomically designed back harness that allows you to strap the vacuum to your back as you clean. The harness is not at all difficult or heavy to handle for anyone, even home users. As a very unique product, the SC412-A certainly has its own niche market.

Sanitaire SC412 Overview
The SC412-A is a highly recommended and very unique vacuum cleaner configuration for those with very specific needs. Although built for lighter cleaning purposes, the flexibility that the backpack vacuum offers is yet unmatched.

Top Accessories
Its small size does not keep it from having a few extra surprises up its sleeve. The backpack vacuum also comes with:

• 1 ½ inch cleaning accessory
• Adjustable ‘S’ wand
• Carpet nozzle
• Bare floor nozzle
• Crevice nozzle
• Dusting brush

Of all these features, the most unique is the S wand, which, instead of being straight, is actually in the shape of an ‘S’. The purpose of this wand is so that you can easily reach around and under your furniture while cleaning.
