This hand vacuum stands out for it’s power and reliability. We have two of them and have never had a problem. There is good suction and the extendable “nozzle” gets into most areas. The battery will inevitably die, but this hasn’t happen to me within three years.

This light weight ( only 3 lbs ) machine is very handy! I love that it has a pull out extended nozzle and little brush attachment that is attached so you will never lose its parts! It has decent suction and I mostly use it to vac my bedside “furry” carpets, dust bunnies and I use it a lot in the kitchen to suck up coffee grounds or crumbs. It is super easy to clean and love the reusable washable filter!
One thing I have noticed is that when it is sitting on its charger the solid blue light ( for some models it is a red light) doesn’t always come on which means it is not charging so I have to fiddle with it a bit.
I haven’t had it for very long so I will update in 6 months if there are any more pros/cons.

We liked the unit so much we got one for our daughter. It is convenient and powerful. Great for little cleanups and for the car. the only drawback is that the battery doesn’t last a real long time but long enough to do the car or for smaller cleanups. Definitely worth the money.

I love this Dust Buster ordered it as the 12 volt model which I already have seems to be no longer available.
The only problem when it arrived was that it came with a USA/Canada two prong charger base and not the three pin which we use here in the UK, so I had to purchase the adapter suitable for USA/Canada appliances.

Great suction power – easy to use! Charges fast and works in corners and hard-to-reach spaces. Needs flat surface to charge – wish I would have gotten the model that could be hung on the wall – but overall am very pleased with this item!

Easy to use and easy to empty. Works well for those who have pets that shed regularly. Also great at picking up crunchy pet kibble bits from hardwood floors and washable rugs. Only drawback is that it’s fairly noisy.

Has suffcient suction power. I prefer this over the plug in 12V vacuum cleaner for the vehicle. I am able to use this not only to clean my vehicle but also my couch and to scoop up any collected dust. There’s a light which turns on when on charging mode and swtiches off once fully charged.
The vacuum cleaner is good, I just wish it came with a few different attachments.

My Dustbuster is now a year and a half old, and it still performs perfectly. It’s lightweight but powerful enough for many applications. If you are old enough to remember or happened to inherit first generation DBs, fear not, this is a different animal! This one holds a charge long enough for its purpose (10-15 mins. for me) and easily sucks up dust, pet hair, sand, etc. Things to note:
• It is NOT a shop vacuum; I think product failure results from misuse. It isn’t designed for industrial use–it’s a DUSTbuster.
• You need to keep it clean, not just the containment tank but the filter and pre-filter. After dumping the contents of the tank you should take out the filter and pre-filter and wash them. I do this at least every third time after dustbusting but usually after every use. Small particles like kitty litter and sand can clog the holes of the gray pre-filter so I use a pin to poke through the holes if washing hasn’t dislodged them. You can gently wash and reuse the fabric filters.
â—‡ TIP â—‡ Occasionally, after removing the nozzle, tank, and filters, I wipe off the motorized base, take it outdoors, hold it away from myself, and switch on the machine for a few seconds. A burst of light dust comes out of the motor/charger end, so I believe it’s a useful step.
• You can purchase replacement filters for your DB and will need to do so as the non-woven filter fabric breaks down over time with repeated use and cleaning. This is no different than needing to buy new bags for bagged vacuums. B&W and unbranded filters are available. Unbranded filters are cheaper but don’t fit as well and may void the warranty.
• As noted in other reviews, be sure to securely lock in each part of the machine after cleaning. You should hear an audible “click” from the depressable buttons that serve as locking mechanisms on the tank and nozzle. Lock failure occurs often when repositioning the nozzle, so be aware and listen for that click when reattaching and adjusting the angle of the nozzle.
• Lastly, though I love my DB, it’s noisy! Held at certain proximities to my ears it’s almost painful. I recommend ear protection. The spec sheet rates the little fellow at 75 decibels.
I rated this DB at 5 stars because giving it only 4 stars seemed unfair, but 4.5 is my honest rating.

This is Exactly what I needed in a cordless handheld dustbuster, B+D designed this incredibly well! For quick light dustbusting in the house or vehicle, this durable and easy to use hand vac is so well-balanced, simple, and ergonomically designed that I wish I’d bought it sooner. For small cleanups around the house it works well, although the lithium-ion battery and storage capacity isn’t designed for large or heavy jobs, that is what the house or shop vac is for first.
This handheld vac is designed for small or simple spot-cleaning, or in hard to reach areas which don’t require a corded vacuum. The list of uses are numerous, for pet hair, dust and dander or pollen, spills (it even pulls up a small amount of liquid, although a wet/dry vac is better for that first), I clean my Winix air purifier filters with this, to extend their efficiency and use, any cobwebs in overhead areas, curtains, and it is very handy for the interior of the vehicle.
The recharging time is very fast, and usually I can manage about twenty or thirty minutes before needing to recharge it on its base (included with the hand vac). When it is fully charged, the blue recharge indicator light shuts off, so it doesn’t constantly glow softly. The motor on the hand vac isn’t loud, the filter and prefilter only take a matter of a couple of minutes to clean, and it is so easy to open up and clean those that it only takes a couple of minutes after the first time. It only comes apart and goes back together in one way, so there is nothing to fumble around with.
If purchasing this item, you may want to buy it bundled with a replacement filter for a discount, to save eventual costs, however after nearly a year I’m still on the original one, and it is hardly showing any wear. I simply open up the hand-vac when it is about 1/2 – 3/4 full, dump out the reservoir of dust, dirt, cat hair, etc., and bang off the pre-filter and filter. In less than a minute, it is all snapped back together, and ready to go again!
It is rare that I leave a lengthy review for a common household item, however this one warrants it. I spend sometimes a few days or weeks reading through top reviews, and don’t make impulse buys, I like quality, and if it costs a few extra dollars, it almost always pays off in the end. As a comparison, when I needed a handheld water filter, I spent months researching, and chose the Katadyn Pocket Water Filter, one of the best purchases I made for camping, backpacking, and essential survival. There is hardly any comparison, and although it cost a little more, after years it is in perfect shape, and was backed by a ten year warranty, almost unheard of for a product. The same with my chef’s knife, the 8-inch Koto Knives Professional Gyoto Chef’s Knife, with 67 Layer Damascus Steel Blade, VG-10 Japanese Super Steel, having worked as a chef, when I found this one I stopped looking, it has been the perfect knife for years, and for the quality was incredibly affordable, around $80.00 USD.
I expect that over its lifetime, the Black and Decker handheld vacuum will continue to prove equally helpful. The charging base and cord are included, it is light and durable, the ease of use and design is ideal, the two nozzle modes are already attached, nothing to take on or off, the brush folds out and back over the intake, so you can get in those tough places, and the motor and rotors sound strong and provide excellent suction for small jobs. The instruction manual is clearly written, in three languages, including the two-year limited warranty, you’ll be out of the box, assembled, and running in a manner of minutes, and what once was a chore is now made easy.
I’ll return to update this review in the coming year(s), however after a year of reliable service I recommend this product. B+K customer service stands by their products if you ever need them, and the quality and attention to detail shows in what they make.
