I use a vacuum more often to blow out an action rather than a whole piano.

I won't blow out a piano unless I have warned its owner that the dust could
be settling in their house for days. Then I first vacuum out the piano, and
use cloths on the keybed and soundboard; when the piano _looks_ clean after
vacuuming and wiping, then I finish up by blowing things out.
