Customer Ratings & Reviews

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."

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

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.

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

I love my cordless hand vacuum. It is powerful and the battery lasts long.

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!!!

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

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

i would say this is a nice handy minivac, it works and does its job. i would say battery and wireless part lasts a good 2 weeks between charging if you casually or lightly use it. its got 2 suction settings one low and one high. the extention is nice but cant use the brush when its extended. i would not use it to suck up wet or moist items and do dry only. the filter and tray is not set for that i think. now for the tray and filter, it has a nice set up. its easy to open, dump and put back on. the device is all great, low carpet and or rugs probably work best ... or cars and other sorts of furniture. and its big and thin enough if you angle it right wayu you can fit it in to suck up in the small crevices and corners.

I randomly came across the vac while at BestBuy for a different reason. I bought it because it was on sale and it looked new, not many reviews for this model, but a similar model had some good reviews, so I took a chance on it. The power is pretty awesome for a handheld. To empty the canister, you need to remove the filter also, which can get a little messy but it isn't too big of a deal, so I wont take off a start for it. Everything is easily washed. I vacuumed out my car with this and it left a lot of black dust all over it, but it washed off easily off of everything. I did notice this model was cheaper than a different model other stores had with a fancier battery detection and filter change alert. I contacted black and decker if they used the same battery and same motor, and they said it does, just the extra lights for battery were the difference, which I can't see justified for the extra $20. I would go with this model over the other versions of it.

This vacuum is very light and powerful, it’s very handy for picking up crumbs To hair on the hardwood floor. This is a great companion to a larger vacuum but I find myself using this more than a large vacuum.

Easy to use and compact size is great for storage. Perfect for cleaning in tight spaces and for when you do not want to haul out the vacuum for a tiny job. Easy to clean out.

I bought this on sale when the previous DustBuster finally went toes up. It is reasonably light with good suction. Two speeds help battery life. This model does not hang on the wall but I’m okay with that.

This hand held vacuum is easy to use and not heavy at all. Powerful suction and has a built in brush. Use it for window sills and car.

This hand vac has plenty of power for my purposes, and it's easy to recharge. Great not to have to deal with a cord.

Was looking for a hand vacuum. This one charges fast, has more power than I expected and is light and easy to use.

I was moving my office and wanted to leave everything as "move in condition". My old hand vacuum was looking pretty rough and I was rather embarassed to bring it in to the office. I checked online and came upon this little wonder and decided to give it a try. To my surprise, this hand vacuum was not only powerful, but lightweight and easy to clean. I can't say enough good things about this vac, and I will recommend it to my friends and family.

Great product. I use it for our cats litter box, quick clean ups and even in the car. Holds a nice charge and mounts easily on wall if you want to go that route. For the price it's a great buy. Couldn't be happier with the results. Highly recommend if looking for an affordable handheld vacuum.

This small hand vac has good suction for picking up a variety of things. I've been able to use it on the carpet, too, while my previous ones of this type worked mainly on hard surfaces. The fact that it extends a little seems useless, however, because it's the same width as the rest of the vac, and it tends to push in on its own while using it; it would be helpful if it were a crevice tool or at least narrower than the regular vacuum end. It is lightweight and easy to empty the dirt. I do wish it could attach to the wall, but it is small enough that it isn't too in the way on the floor.
