Black+Decker - Cordless Hand Vac - White/Black

Remember those Dustbusters of the 1980's? They hung in workshops and kitchens and were never used because they sucked -- or, rather, they didn't suck. And the batteries died almost as soon as you turned them on. But they were pretty cool nonetheless. They and Walkmans were the iphones of the 80s -- the must have gadgets that had pretty novel designs that never worked all that well. Batteries have improved quite a bit since then and this handvac does benefit from those advancements -- somewhat. I didn't find the battery-life quite as poor as some of the other reviewers of this vac, but I did expect it to be better. I've vacuumed my small sedan from front to back, about 20 minutes worth of work, in the high power setting (because, really, why would you use the low power setting). It starts petering out then quickly dies completely. So your SUV will have to be done in at least two sessions. If they couldn't give this a better battery, the least they could have done is make the battery swap-able -- a la cordless drills. The best use for this is for quick little cleanup jobs around the house like getting a stray cobweb or two out of a corner. The biggest complaint I (and many other reviewers) have about this unit is the inexplicable lack of a wall-mount. Even a search on Amazon, which has everything, comes up with nada. I contacted Black & Decker and they confirmed that they don't make or sell one. So, as you can see in my pictures, I fabricated one of my own. Overall, this isn't too bad of a hand vac, depending on your intended use. It would be outstanding, though, with Alexa-compatibility: "Alexa, tell the hand-vac to vacuum the cobwebs in the corner."

On the lower speed, the suction is good and although the manual says it can vacuum for 40min, I have never gotten more than 15-20 out of it. On the high speed, you’ll be lucky to get 10 minutes straight on a full charge. It’s great for quick pickups, but, you probably wouldn’t be able to walk around a large sized home doing maintenance clean-ups going room to room, floor to floor. Also, I have a dog that sheds and because of the hair, the dirt container fills up rather quickly...

Nice design and easy to handle. Dust bin wasn’t attached tightly so there was air leakage, seems like a defect on the particular one. It is really useful for home to clean tight spots, but I purchased it for my car and later found better one. So returned it.

I always used to spend 10$ in car wash and tired of going all the time spending my less time so finally I got this black decker it helps me to save my time and money , easy and very comfortable to use . I love it . It works great

Powerful motor and good pickup power to lift dirt from carpets and specially for car

Met, and even exceeded, my expectations. Looking forward to using it for even more, i.e., cleaning my car, etc. I bought it to vacuum out my window sills and it worked beautifully. I know it will also be perfect for individual accidental spills. Great Buy at a good price!!!

Never thought this size vacuum can be so helpful. Great for cleaning cars, couches beds etc..Great quality and battery life.

Great product.. Really satisfied... Worth it. Its very easy to use
