Which item, originally called the Whirlwind, was invented by Ives McGaffey in 1869?

  • A.Blender
  • B.Electric mixer
  • C.Washing machine
  • D.Vacuum cleaner

Answer: D

It was the vacuum cleaner.

Ives McGaffey patented his hand-cranked Whirlwind in 1869. It was hard to work - one hand turned the crank while the other pushed - and few were sold; the powered version came from Hubert Booth in 1901.
