BLACK+DECKER POWERSERIES 20V MAX Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner, Household Vacuum Cleaners for Hardwood Floors and Carpet, LED Lights, Detachable, Anti-Tangle, Lightweight, Bagless (BHFEA18D1)

This vacuum works great. I love the light. I have cats and hardwood floors and I am always shocked to see how much hair is actually on my floor when I turn it on. (Need to use that push broom more often!) Battery life is decent for me, and about what I expected. I have other B&D power tools, and many batteries, so this was not going to be an issue. Still I bought a 2 pack of extra batteries on the cheap just to keep in the house. The vacuum is very lightweight and maneuverable. The suction power IS adjustable (on a properly working model!) by hitting the power button a second time. It does have a sensor which will kick it up to max should you hit a rough carpet spot, and usually on my berber carpet. If you suck up something that entangles the brush, it turns off until you remove the offending particle. In my case, usually a piece of sisal rope from a cat tree, or the edge of a blanket, etc. There are only 2 things I don't like about it. First; Although it does come with a screw-into-the-wall holder, and it does balance to stand upright by itself, I've had too many instances of knocking it over...sometimes falling down the steps and the dust cup popping off. Instead I wedge the top into a corner, leaning into the wall. This can leave a mark on your wall, but does work. Unless you wanna be a freak and purchase multiple wall holders... Hmm.. Secondly; The dust cup can be hard to empty, and I was surprised at how quickly it fills up. It is easy to get off the vacuum, but hard to pull out the top to empty it, once you do. I am not weak and people tell me I have a very good grip. Anyway I find that putting my left index finger into the opening on the side and pushing up while I pull the top works with less effort, every time. Neither of these "imperfections" is enough to deduct a star though. I've had it for 2.5 months and am waiting for another sale so I can keep one upstairs too. I wanted a vacuum with power, portability, and a powered head brush. Also one with a replaceable battery system. Already been through the "Battery is dead, so is your vacuum" saga with other brands.

I was looking for a smaller, inexpensive vaccum to use mostly on my hardwood floors. I have one cat and otherwise don't have much foot traffic. I mainly was wantinf something to clean up cat hair with. After days and days of research I finally settled on this bad boy(which was cheaper than the other options I found I might add). Other reviews I've seen bring up the battery life a lot. I personally have no issue with it. I vaccum my whole house daily minus my carpeted areas. I can get about 3 days out of my battery before needing to charge it. After vacuuming I usually pop it on the charger just so I know it's ready to go. The "turbo" mode, as I like to call it does take more battery and it kicks on when it thinks it's needed (think rugs, or areas with a lot of dirt and debris). I will say the vaccum does try to eat your rugs and will suck them up in the brush causing the vaccum to turn off. Otherwise no complaints there, the suction is great, almost too great for the rugs and cat toys haha. For those with cats, it does pick up cat litter decently, you do need to go over it more than once and of course when removing/emptying the canister, do it over the trash for any loose pieces. The added light on the front is great to really see what's on the floor and what spots you've missed. You can unattach the floor attachment for a handheld vaccum(works great for couches and vehicles) however I do wish there was a brush attachment. The canister is smaller but again I have no issues with emptying it after each vaccum and sometimes can get away with every two to three vaccums. It is pretty light weight considering however I feel like it would still be a bit on the heavier side for someone who is older. A bonus is that the brush roller easily pops out to be cleaned( to remove any hair wrapped around it) to keep it working as it should. The part with the filter is a little tough to pull out at times but overall not too much of a hassle. It handles good and rolls fine although the wheels can be a little squeaky. It is decently loud on the turbo mode but not too horrible on the level 1 mode. Overall I would recommend, it's great and better than expected. It's not big and bulky and gets the job done at a great price. I will say I'm not too sure how well it would hold up battery and canister wise for mostly carpeted houses with multiple pets. But for mostly hardwood with 1 or 2 animals you should be good to go!

Love the maneuverability of this little vacuum! It is super easy to use, charges fairly quickly and picks up most debris. We have two huskies and need to clean frequently to keep up with the fur. It doesn't do as well with larger or heavier debris but I will say it picks up most things quickly and easily. It has two suction strengths and will switch to more suction when it detects you are on carpet. The canister is small of course because it's attached and this is cord free but it is easy to remove and empty. The only complaint I have is that the canister removal feels a bit wonky..I feel you should be able to push the button with one hand so it releases and have it stay put until you can stabilize the vacuum then pull it off but it basically wants to fall right off so you need two hands to release and take off the canister. It also is a little more tough to push back in that seems necessary and a few times I guess it didn't latch all the way and it fell off. But all parts seem well-made and all in all this has made it so much easier for me to keep the house clean vs using our old Dyson vacuum which is very heavy and corded. I really do love this vacuum!

I’ve been using the BLACK+DECKER POWERSERIES 20V MAX cordless stick vacuum for a little while now, and overall I’m very pleased with it. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver, and convenient for quick cleanups, especially in small spaces. The cordless design makes a big difference—no hassle with plugging and unplugging, and it’s easy to grab and use anytime. It works well on hard floors and does a decent job on rugs too. The battery life is good for light to moderate cleaning, though for larger areas you may need to recharge. The dustbin is easy to empty, and maintenance is straightforward. Overall, it’s a practical and user-friendly vacuum. Not a heavy-duty replacement for a full-size vacuum, but excellent for everyday use and quick cleaning. This lightweight vacuum stick has a powerful detachable handheld with automatic speeds. It’s so versatile! I love it!!! And as a stick vacuum, it goes from floor to carpet automatically and visa versa.

I've now had this B & D vac for one year and I previously had an Evereze branded one that only lasted a year before it's unreplaceable battery went bad so I have to compare the B & D with that . All that I can say about it is that the B & D has had zero problems in that time . Pick up power is acceptable , it always surprises me how much this picks up every time I use it . It could do better on hard floors , I do run it on mine , but have to sweep afterwards . The filter assembly comes out easily for cleaning and the filter housing is a very nice set up that's not bulky or going to get in the way or break like the cheaper brands . What is a bit disappointing about the filter is that it does not have a fine filter element in it . What looks like the filter is really just a plastic debris catcher and anything that makes it through that gets filtered only by a small foam disc . The good thing is that cleaning the filter assembly is simple , you can use soap and water on everything , and you don't have any paper filter that needs to be purchased and replaced regularly . The bad thing is that foam isn't a very good filter , it is no doubt letting a lot of fine dust through and is blowing it back into the room . I would recommend getting a pack of the foam discs so that you can swap them out after each use and then wash them when you have a few to do at the same time . Replacement foam filters : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CBBY1J3T/ . I would rate this stick vac a 7 out of 10 , it's strengths being ease of cleaning , durability , and proven 20V Max battery system . Weaknesses are the filter element and hard floor performance . Recommended .

I have had this vacuum for less than a month and I just want to throw it on the trash heap! It started out fine but a couple weeks ago the vacuum started going into high range while vacuuming wood floors. We'll this uses up the battery. I thought it was me hitting the high range by accident so I repositioned so it wouldn't happen again. We'll, it wasn't me. Here 2 weeks later, it is working in high range longer than low range, so I get a total of about 10 minutes of use. I may expect this from a cheap off brand, but I've used B & D for years with no problem. Their quality has gone waaay down if this is how they work! This is my second B & D within about 18 months - the last one was the pet version and it did fine until the wheels fell off , that you cannot find replacements for! But this one has me pulling my hair out. I don't think I'll be buying another Black & Decker. Don't waste your money or your time on this one!!

2nd updated review: I called Black & Decker and submitted a warranty claim and they are sending me a replacement vacuum. So I'm changing my review to three stars because of this. It's still not good that the vacuum had problems one year and two months after I purchased it but at least Black & Decker is honoring their warranty. Hopefully this replacement will last longer. Updated review: Changed from 5 starts to 1 star because after 1 year and two months, it stopped working. The bearings are making a horrible screeching sound and dust blows out from the engine. Black and Decker should be ashamed of the quailty that they are producing. I followed all the instructions about cleaning the vacuum and the filter...didn't matter. If Black and Decker even reads these reviews, they should contact me and send me a new vacuum. Original review: This is an excellent stick vacuum. It has very powerful section compared to other ones I've had and it's easy to use. The battery system is great because Black and Decker allows you to use the same battery across many of their tools... so there's no issue with buying a new battery and not being able to find it. The only issue and it's not a very big one is that you can't put the vacuum permanently in low power. The auto sense will put it in low power when it's on floor vs. carpeting, and you can permanently put it into the high power mode, but you cannot set it into the low power mode. This would be helpful for some throw rugs I have because the suction is powerful and I have to be careful on the throw rugs.

Love it. All floors. Real hardwood vinyl stone throw rugs even the couch seats. Easy clearing. Worth it. I’d buy again

He aprendido costosamente a leer las reseñas a partir de esta mala experiencia con Amazon. Ya que, además, me confié en que las devoluciones eran fáciles en Amazon y este lo tienen mal clasificado, pues no contiene gases ni líquidos inflamables.

Debated between several cordless vacuums and ended up choosing this one, I love it. The battery lasts a really long time, it is not super noisy, and picks up everything and anything from the ground, super easy to clean the base and to clear the reservoir too. Very lightweight as well and the light at the end of the vacuum to see the floor is super helpful when cleaning dark spots.

I had a Dyson stick vacuum that cost a ridiculous amount that lasted for less than four years. I did love it initially, but now not the value for money. So I figured I might as well pay way less and see how this one goes! So far so good. This is more functional than a corded vacuum for what I need and is pretty easy to manage, but not quite as maneuverable as the Dyson was (although the low profile ability to reach under furniture is better). Also the B&D is not quite as light, but in the same ballpark. The canister is small, but not that much smaller than and is MUCH easier to empty compared to the Dyson. And if I notice the "sucking power" is lacking, emptying the canister (because like I said, small for some jobs) always fixes it right back up for me. The one thing I'll say is I am taking care to handle to plastic piece that releases then locks the canister back on with a delicate touch- read that some other users had worries about the longevity there. Also read that it's "need-hearing-protection loud"- for me, it is comparable to any other vacuum I've ever had and not at all a problem. And I love that the battery is interchangeable with other B&D products I already own so the battery life is a non-issue. I LOVE the light because it's so obvious what it is that you're trying to pick up. Bought it in March and if this vacuum lasts another 8-10 months, which I fully expect it to, it will already be better value than my Dyson was. (Disclaimer: got this for about $175 on sale)

Very good

Super merci
