When our Shark went on the blink for the third time we decided it was time to get serious about a decent handheld vacuum. We own a Dyson full size vacuum so I naturally did my research presuming that the right answer was to get the Dyson cordless as well. However when I compared the reviews (some good, some not so good) to the price it gave me some heartburn so I decided to look around. Glad I did.

I did not have high expectations for this product. By and large I find the Black & Decker brand to be a decent value for the money, but not necessarily great quality. This product changed my opinion. It’s very well made, with solid construction and an intriguing design. Those factors are very important to me, but it’s a vacuum, so if it doesn’t suck none of those factors matter much. Boy, does this thing suck! It’s a bit noisy, but when you consider the amount of suction it creates it’s little wonder that you can hear it so well. So far, everything I have used it for has been handled with great ease and satisfaction.

The charging station is pretty convenient and intuitive. My only criticism of it is that the charge light never changes color when the unit is fully charged – this would be a nice feature to add and is one of my issues with the Shark. But you can leave it in the base to trickle charge all the time without issues.

The pivoting nose is great because in the folded position the unit takes up so much less room, while in the extended position it’s the right length and balances nicely.

Overall, this is a five-star handheld cordless vacuum and is the one I would recommend to anyone based on my positive experiences with it so far. If anything changes to alter my opinion, I will append this review.

I bought this hand vac after Consumer Reports rated it as one of the best products for the year. I am so glad I did. Best vacuum product we have ever owned, hands down. Picks up anything with ease, and has a long lasting charge. I have three kids and I use this daily to pick up everything on our floor, including large pieces of food. It grabs everything. So easy to get in those crevices as well. LOVE LOVE LOVE this product, and I never write reviews. Trust me.

First off, let me note that I chose this product after reading the reviews on amazon and also the reviews on [...]

My duplex is all linoleum and I have 2 cats and 1 dog-an akita. As you can imagine, there is A LOT of pet hair that gets accumulated throughout the house.
I have now used this vacuum for over a week now, and have fallen in love with its ease of use, the amount of dirt and pet hair it picks up, and its long charge. It picks up pet hair with ease, and picks up a lot of dirt that I would not have been able to get with a broom alone. The user manual states that fully charged it can last as long as 16 minutes on hard floor without the brush. However, I have found it lasts a good 20 + minutes. In fact, I have yet to not vacuum my entire duplex (1000 sq feet) with it loosing it’s charge!

I noticed several reviews on this product stating how heavy it is to lift over the trash can and what a pain it is. I am 8 1/2 months pregnant and am able to lift the vacuum over our kitchen-sized trash can with ease. Is it a little bulky? Sure, but it picks up so much dirt and pet hair that it is worth me lifting it over the trash can. After every use I have removed the filter as well to brush it out to get even more dust out.
The only thing negative I can say about this is the fact that when I received it in the mail, it took 24 hours to fully charge up- however you are going to find that with anything like that- when you get a new cell phone is a prime example.

If you are on the fence about purchasing this, I can tell you first hand it is a worthwhile purchase. My husband was doubtful that we really “needed” this, after all- we have a full size vacuum cleaner. However given the fact that I am pregnant, I needed something lighter and more portable. This is great for a quick cleaning or if you just need to clean one room of your house. I am cleaning my whole house with it now and it is working great!
