Great little floor vac November 7, 2008 J. M. Daley (Salisbury Center, NY USA) 71 out of 73 found this review helpful
I recently purchased this vac for touchups between regular cleanings, and am very pleased with it. With three cats in the house, our main problem is cat hair. This vac does a wonderful job on the area rugs with the power brush engaged, and on the bare floors with just the suction. I can do the entire downstairs of about 1300 sq. ft. before the charge shows any signs at all of diminishing. There is no bag and it's very easy to empty and clean the dirt catcher. The fact that there is no cord to deal with makes it very convenient. It's more expensive than most vacs of this type but is well worth it, and I would recommend it to anyone.
HELPFUL HINT March 23, 2009 TNFlower 47 out of 48 found this review helpful
I enjoy using this vac for quick pickups on hardfloors and even upholstered furniture. We have two dogs who track in from our incomplete landscape and grass planting. Also, I can see using this periodically as a take with in the camper or RV. Being able to leave it in the recharge cradle all the time without damaging the battery is helpful. HINT: I had been just opening the door and emptying the unit into the trashcan. when emptying the canister, remove both filter drums. I found that a great deal of dirt was trapped underneath the filter drum mount. Also, BOTH filter drums are easy to remove are totally washable. the inner filter drum takes a while to dry but is durable for washing in a sink of warm soapy water.
I am 73 and a vaccum junkie! November 24, 2008 jhmsable ' Atlanta,GA 34 out of 36 found this review helpful
I have been searching for the perfect vac for 50 years. THIS IS IT! I have had central vac, hand vacs. I have had canister, etc. This is the first vac I dont mind using. It just sets there on the charger and has NO Cord! I keep looking for the cord- so I wont trip over it. THIS VAC IS IT! No trouble about pulling out of closet and hunting the hand tools. Use me please it seems to say - I will help you. Yea I am a nut case for the perfect vac. OH! dont for get the price; it is great -under one hundred dollars with prime shipping.
My House is Cleaner than Ever February 9, 2009 Pescado Amarillo (USA) 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
I purchased this item from WalMart as soon as it came out. I'd been looking for a lightweight rechargable vacuum that could handle our carpets, hardwood and tile floors, and this is it. I have never been as pleased with a vacuum as I am with this one. I only hope the rechargable battery withstands the test of time.
I alternate cleaning down stairs one day (1200 sq ft, mostly hardwood), and upstairs the next (1200 sq ft. of mostly carpet and some tile- it doesn't make it to one or two of the small bedrooms before it fades). It takes less than 15 minutes of vacuuming each day to clean most of the house. It's also perfect for cleaning the carpeted stairs, and I even run it in the garage to pick up dirt before it gets tracked into the house.
One reviewer called it heavy and ackward...I can't imagine. We just weighed it; it weighs about 5 pounds. The pivot feature is perfect for fitting under all my furniture, including a hope chest that I hadn't cleaned under for years.
I do empty the filter every couple of days, as I am finicky about that. I use our air compressor to blow out the inside of the filter area, and both filters. I'm searching now for a replacement paper filter as I know I'll need it sometime in the future.
I'm not certain it cleans quite as thoroughly as my heavy Kenmore canister vac, but I do know I vacuum about 10 times more often because it's so easy. I'm sure I'm coming out ahead, and when I see the dirt I get every single day in my pet-less house, it bothers me to think that I used to vacuum only every 2 or 3 weeks because it was so hard.
It's a great vacuum, and I highly recommend it!
Easy handling November 29, 2008 L. Whitley (Outer Banks) 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
With 3 dogs and a cat, I have owned lot of vacuum cleaners. This Black & Decker is powerful, yet lightweight. It holds a charge long enough to get through my kitchen, dining & living room (about 1000 square feet of tile, hardwood & scattered rugs). It is easy to maneuver and folds up to fit into recharger easily. Also easy to clean the bagless canister.
