Abstract:
A vacuum cleaner includes a canister defining a debris chamber, a powerhead connected to a top of the canister, a hose, and a hose retainer removably connected to the canister. The canister includes a base and at least one sidewall extending therefrom. The powerhead includes a suction unit operable to generate airflow through the canister. The hose retainer includes a back plate defining an aperture therethrough, at least one hose retention clip defining a channel shaped and sized to receive the hose therein, and a dustpan defining a debris intake opening and including a hose end mount. When an inlet end of the hose is connected to the hose end mount, the inlet end of the hose is connected in fluid communication with the debris intake opening to generate airflow therethrough.
