BLACK+DECKER dustbuster Cordless Handheld Vacuum, Home and Car Vacuum (HHVI315JO42)

Great vacuum for the price. Love that the brush attachment pivets out of the way when not in use. I don't have to go try and find the attachment. The end also extends out if you need more reach. Clever and useful design!

I like it better than my hand held Dyson. Better suction and holds a charge longer.

I have had two or three B&D dust busters in the past. One of them I had when I first got married in 1988, on the original battery, lasted 12 years! I can't say that I counted the years, but I couldn't believe how long it lasted. Sure, after that long, and on the older technology battery (NiMH or maybe even NiCad), it would only last a couple of minutes on a full charge and then the battery was dead, but most spills only take a minute or two literally.That's my overall LOVE of B&D dust busters. About a year ago, I bought model CHV1410L and absolutely loved that - it's quick and easy to give it a 5 star rating (that model). My son went off to college, and took that model (CHV1410L), so I had to buy another one. Being so many models looking nearly the same, I figured it didn't matter which model I bought - they are all "awesome" right?Well, I've had this one a couple months, and figured I would write this review just to get my two cents in to say "YES - Buy a B&D Dustbuster, but DO NOT buy this model, buy the CHV1410L model instead." I give this one 4 stars instead of 5 stars for 2 reasons. They are MINOR - but nonetheless - I think this model and the CHV1410L are the same price, so buy the CHV1410L model. What don't I LOVE about this model?1 - to charge it, you have to plug it in. What's so bad about this? well nothing BAD, but, the other model (CHV1410L ) has a "pad" that plugs into the wall, and you simply place it onto the plate-shaped charging disc, where it makes contact and charges. It's nice to not have to plug it in and unplug it every time you want to use it - I know - MINOR - but I personally prefer just setting the hand vac down on the pad to having to plug a wire in every time.2 - no charging light. OK not a BIG deal, but the other model (CHV1410L , which I prefer) has a charging lamp so you know when it is ready.3 - the biggest reason why I prefer the CHV1410L model to this model, is because the filter cup basically just sits inside the housing, it does NOT connect or sit tight over the motor and suction housing. Is it loose or did I have a problem? Well, yes. NO, it was not loose, and it functioned perfectly. Then what is my gripe? Just today (and what triggered me writing this), when I went to use it, I noticed it sounded a bit funny - like something rubbing against a bearing or hitting the motor propeller. So I opened it up to empty it and take a look. TO MY SURPRISE - NO FILTER!. What am I saying? I am saying that due to the fact that the filter does not connect via half-turn or bayonet-type (or ANY type) of connect, and just sits inside the clear plastic housing, it means that the last person to empty the main housing must have not noticed that the filter emptied out with the debris into the trash container, then after emptying it out, put it back together not knowing that the filter was missing.So THIS to me is a poor design. Again no problems functionally, but due to the design of not connecting or clipping and staying put, it means that the filter is going to simply fall out into the trash like it did to one of my family members. And whether it was me, my wife, or whatever, the point is we've been using these things for years, but this "gotcha" of a floating filter design has resulted just a couple months later of me now having to buy another filter, AND, I will have to take this one completely apart down to the motor innards to try to clean the hair and other debris inside where I can see it, where it should NEVER get to.And just to add another small negative in this filter thing: when I search for "filter for HHVI315JO42" on Amazon... none found. Someone says the VF110 fits, but, when you find that filter on Amazon, it has a text box to "see if your model fits" - when I enter this exact model, it says "do you mean" another, similar model (ending in 32 instead of 42), and even if you click that alternate, the message "we are NOT sure if this fits your model". And worse - when I search for the MANUAL online for this, I do find it quickly. But in the manual for this model, NO PART NUMBER MENTIONED FOR THE FILTER.OK, so you get me now. Nothing huge, and this vacuum operates flawlessly, and I can't knock anyone who rates this as 5 stars. But, with my history of owning a few of B&D dust busters, and LOVING every one with a 5 star rating, when you read above, it should be understood why I prefer the model that drove away with my son to his college dorm instead of this one.

Good suction, very easy to figure out and use. I’m really glad I chose this model!

One step assembly to set up, charges easily & haven’t had to recharge during use. Filter pops out for easy cleaning. Looks slick hanging on wall…exactly as advertised!

Pretty good little hand vacuum for the price!

It works fine, but functionally it's a bit disappointing! No charging light, the power plug is separate from the wall hanger, so you have to remember to unplug it before you walk off with it, and it doesn't have a reusable filter like my last one did! Their research and development is going backwards!

Easy to use and great quality! Incredible value for the price!!
