BLACK+DECKER HFVB320J27 Eggplant Lithium Flex 2 Ah Hand Vacuum

I am soooo happy with this vacuum!! We bought it for cleaning our carpeted steps and it is perfect for that task! Its light weight which makes it super portable. They include three attachments in a clinch sac which was great since one of the tools was for pet hair removal. I wish that they would include a flat brush which would be easier for the steps but the pet hair works fine. We use this to also clean the car since you can charge it up and take it outside and do a quick vacuum of the car. The battery DOES NOT last very long so it could probably do the stairs and the car on one charge but after that it would require another charge. The biggest negative for me is that the light that says it is being charged never turns off so you can't be sure when a full charge is received. Other then that its a great vacuum and does the job well for what I needed.

We had the older version of this vacuum, that was powered by a rechargeable nicad battery pack. Worked great for us for 5 or more years before the batteries just gave out. But we used it so much, we needed a replacement. And we found it! This new one is also rechargeable, but it's got lithium-ion batteries that charge faster, stay charged longer, and drive this little vac for a fairly long time before running down. The vac itself is redesigned a bit, also. More compact motor, cleanable filter, and fairly long reach with the included wand, brush end and pet hair picker upper. We love this thing, and use it several times every day! (Makes a great bug sucker!)

I grew up with Black+Decker tools when they were made in America and lasted forever. The same applies for Stanley tools who now owns B+D. Sadly neither are made in America any longer. That said while this is no Dyson, it is a much improved model over previous B+D handheld vacuums. The ability to remove the hose is a great feature and adds to the ease of use and functionality. The selection of attachments are well designed and provide options for your projects. The suction is improved over previous models but still lacks the 'horsepower' for some fairly basic jobs. For example, I have a very hard time getting embedded pine needles out of the floor and trunk carpeting in my vehicle, even with the improved suction. Maybe I am asking too much for this small vacuum. The only other issue so far is that if you vacuum fine dusty surfaces or sawdust, the filter will clog rather quickly and you have to stop what you're doing and clean it, even before the basket needs emptying. The good news is that you can clean the filter under the sink faucet so you don't have to throw it away. The bad news is that you need to ensure the filter is completely dry before you can reinstall it again. Purchase extra filters so your projects aren't delayed further. For the price this is a well performing little vacuum with great battery life. Lifespan of this now foreign made tool remains to be seen.

This is my second one of these. The only reason I bought another one is I wanted it to be cordless. I passed my corded one, which was perfectly fine, to a family member. The suction is powerful and I like that you can take it apart to wash the filter and the "tank" comes off completely so you can wash that as well. I've tried everything you can think of to get cat hair off furniture, couches, beds, you name it - the pet attachment that comes with this is amazing. It's the only thing I've ever found that works great.

I had the first generation of this Black & Decker hand held vacuum. I gave it to my daughter-in-law. I always wanted to get another one. I am glad I purchased this model. They have made improvements on them. It's easy to use, easy to clean, and mine keeps the charge longer. It is lightweight and doesn't take up much storage space. This is perfect for steps, baseboards, corners, and for any quick pickup messes. It's a nice color as well. I would definitely purchase this again. I love it.

This vacuum cleaner is not any good. It has no real vacuum cleaner power at all. I have had this vacuum for about four years and it has never, never, never ever never preformed with any good sucking power.I repeat do not buy this vacuum. If I could give this product a 5 zero rating I would. The battery doesn’t last long. You may do a little more then half of your car interior. You can not take your time to vacuum because the battery will start dying.

Great little DustBuster. Works perfectly for toddler messes, car vacuuming, steps or other small jobs. The pet attachment works extremely well to pull dog hair off our steps. I have zero issues with the battery. I am able to use it multiple times without having to put it on the charger. I do not charge until it is completely drained and usually just let it charge overnight. I love the easy open side to empty the dirt and also that the filter is accessible from the opposite side for easy cleaning.

Vacuum is pretty good for what I bought it for, which was to clean small pieces of food, crumbs, etc. from the kitchen counters. I don't usually run it for very long, so I can't say how long the battery lasts, but it hasn't run out on me on my small jobs. I do wish it had better suction. It works well for the countertops, but didn't do as well on the carpet when trying to vacuum up some dirt. Overall, I'd say it's an average hand vac.
