Charges quickly but only runs for 30 minutes or so.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I REALLY want to like this product as it is perfect for my kitchen and bathroom floors (I use a heavy duty stand up for liv rm & bedroom carpet), but sadly, after 3 attempts, I simply can't. I bought one in March 2019 at the same time that I bought B+D Flex Vac (dust buster). Both B+D, both Lithium battery, both same basic idea of charging, read both manuals and charged them properly (10+ hours initially, can be left charging when not in use). The B+D Power Sweeper worked great for the first few months and then died. I thought it was because it had been unplugged too long and lost its charge. So I recharged it 10+ hours - light went on during charging, light went off indicating done charging, but no power when I pushed the power button. Repeated this using EVERY plug in the house just in case it was a currency issue. No go. Returned it. They issued a store credit which I used to get a new one thinking it was that one only. Charged the new one 10+ hours - light went on during charging, light went off indicating done charging, checked it and power went on so I thought I was all was good. Kept on the charger and went to work. That night no power when I pushed the power button. I called B+D hoping there was someone in Tech Support that could pinpoint what I might be doing wrong. No Tech Support. They referred me to a service center 4 hours away (!). I asked if she had any info on the product -- as this appears to be recurring? No. She said she would ship a new one to me complimentary and I could recycle this one. I pointed out this is a terrible practice, just adding to landfills instead of solving the problem but that whole concept fell on deaf ears. So she sent a new one. I was hopeful - maybe the retailer got a bad batch. Maybe the manufacturer will have a good one. Received it. EXACT repeat. Looked online to read others reviews confirming my same experience. One reviewer even said her husband repairs small appliances and opened it up to see a small wire necessary for the Lithium battery to work was shoddily installed bent. He corrected it and it worked from that point forward. So moral of the story: it's a gamble whether you will get one that was poorly manufactured (or like me, 3 that were poorly manufactured). And btw, the Flex Vac Lithium dust buster charges -- and works -- like a champ. But it is used for an entirely different function. The B+D Lithium Powered Sweeper, while a seemingly great design, is poorly manufactured and B+D doesn't care. Just keep throwing new ones at you and add to the landfills.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It doesn’t take long to charge it. The charge last’s a long time too
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Stopped charging in little over a month. Worthless since it's non returnable.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes rechargeable. Says lasts 50 min on charge. Gets edges really good. Only cord is for charging. I recommend getting Best Buy’s guarantee for extra protection. Works on tile and not thick carpet, more like a rug.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it is Cordless
