BLACK+DECKER dustbuster AdvancedClean Cordless Handheld Vacuum, Compact Home and Car Vacuum with Crevice Tool (CHV1410L)

We've had this vacuum 6 years now and it still works as good as the day we bought it, with exception (to be expected) of a bit of battery life. That said, I was prompted to write this review, which I had thought of since day one, due to my Apple Watch giving me a 90dB noise warning. We bought it because, at the time, it was said to be "quiet". Uh, not exactly. Its noise level was noted on day one and had it not performed well, would have prompted a return. I can't be in the same room when it's running unless I turn my hearing aids all the way down. Other than that, no problems. YMMV...

We bought this Black N Decker Dustbuster to replace an old model which worked wonderfully for many years. This one is similar to another one we bought within the past 5 years, but we needed two -- one for each end of the house. It works great, but unlike the last one we bought, the instructions say to wash out the filter once per month. My husband finally checked on the filter over the weekend and said he could blow it out just fine with his blower. It works great. Wish I didn't have to worry about a filter, but I would buy this one again.

Received this yesterday. I decided to get this mostly to vacuum the dust and lint that accumulate in my computer's air intake grill and to clean up all the junk that appears in and around my computer area. It seems to work well in that regard. It is LOUD however! But, it has to be in order to have the suction power that it has.I do like the clear walls of the dirt trap. That way, you can see when you need to empty it. We'll see about how well it filters fine dust. My biggest complaints are that it must be stored (and charged) sitting vertically with its nose literally up in the air. The charging system consists of a wall wart and a plate that sits on the floor/counter and the vacuum sits (loosely) on the plate. It would have been great if charging were a simple male/female DC power jack sort of affair and the male piece capable of being placed in a plate so that it could be hung from the wall. Or, even better, the male end could be removed from any plate whatsoever and loose, so that you could physically plug it directly into the vacuum and then the vacuum could be hung from a wall with a larger hook through the handle, nose down. But, I'm sure it was designed the way it is to be more ergonomic and to be capable of being used "on the go". Oh well.One concern I had was in regards to the blue LED that illuminates while being charged. For some reason, I felt that it would be illuminated the whole time the vacuum sat in charger. Thankfully this is not true! I verified this morning that the LED goes out after the vacuum has been fully charged. This is good because that LED is BRIGHT.My mom had a Dustbuster back in the 80's which worked well for us. I'm assuming this unit will work well for me, 40 years later.

A few months in and I have no complaints. The only thing I wish, was there was a way to make this so it could be hung and charging from hanging on the wall. However, I knew this when I purchased therefore I cannot remove even one star for that.The battery lasts quite a while. I have yet to run the battery down while using. I can't say how long it takes to fully charge from being completely drained to full because I've never experienced that situation yet.It's got imo, superb suctioning power. My previous machine was another big name brand thats known for having superb suctioning power, but the price is ridiculous. So when it went to the small appliance spot in the sky, I couldn't justify paying almost 3x's the amount unless I tried something cheaper first. I'm so happy I did.I would purchase again and have already told my daughters, who both have small children, that they would not regret their purchase.

This thing works great. I have a kind of small room some I’m not using it over a large area but it works great. You can also clean the filter and reuse it for a while without having to get a new one as often. I haven’t used it long enough to kill the battery so that’s awesome. It’s also made so you can leave it on the charger and don’t ever have to worry about taking it off or it being damaged by being on the charger too long. I’m glad I purchased this!

For such a low price I was expecting it to break almost immediately but NOPE ! It just keeps going strong. I even leave it plugged on the charger for months at a time. I have cleaned my cars and my couch and my bed room floor with this thing many many times. It's super easy to clean out and I like how the body is semi-transparent so you can see when it needs to be emptied and cleaned. Lasts about 15-20 mins on a full charge. No problemo... charges fully in about 4 hours. I would highly recommend this little vacuum to anyone !
