That's exactly what I use!! My sister is a seamtress and she used it when working on my machine once. I blew the dust out of my machine everytime I use it.

I was told the reason not to use the canned air is because there is the propellent in the can that can rust the gears, besides pushing the lint in further. I was telling this to my DH, after talking to some of our guild members about, and he went out, and bought me an air compressor. The guy at the story thought we were going to pressure wash the house.LOL when we told him what it how I was going to use it. The canned air is also flammable of course you turn off your machine, but it could still be plugged in? Never!

Have only used it once, but I won't use it again.

I love my little mini-vac attachments for cleaning around the machines and sucking up what I have brushed out. The little crevice tool reaches places that sometimes the brush misses. Don't think I would chance using compressed air.

Yes, I use it pretty often. My technician says to blow out the bobbin area every time you sew for very long.
I think it is a great product! I was surprised how much lint fabric gives off until I observed it around my featherweight.

I have had one of the attachments that fit on your regular vacuum for years. Have used it on my home machines and industrial with good results. It also works on the keyboard of your computer and many other things.

Correct. Once you get that lint and threads and dust pushed way down into the machine or laptop or whatever, you will have a much more difficult time getting that accumulation out of it. That is how the repair people stay in business. Even the vacumm will not be able to get it out after building up down in the machine. It is really just 'common sense'!

I think I will continue to clean mine out with a small artists brush with a drop of sewing machine oil on it. This has worked very well for me. I am leery of the canned air! :D
