| Comments: | Yes, from the images 掃除機 is always a vacuum cleaner and 掃除器 usually is, but can occasionally be used for something else. |

| Comments: | 掃除器 may have a broader meaning but as far as I can tell 掃除器 is always "vaccum cleaner". Wikipedia defines it as "ゴミやホコリを容器内に回収する家庭電化製品（掃除用吸引機）である。しばしば電気掃除機（でんきそうじき）ともいう。" It may mean having to split 掃除器 off into a separate entry but I do think "vacuum cleaner" should be the gloss here. |
