Entry Description

Quip is a handheld vacuum cleaner featuring a self-cleaning blower initialized when docked and charging.

The product addresses common deferred maintenance on household vacuums which leads to worn out components and electronic waste before expected product life cycles.

Dust and debris captured in the vacuum is released into the charging base to extend periods between emptying while maintaining motor longevity. This promotes a quicker and cleaner vacuuming experience.
