BLACK+DECKER 20V Max Handheld Vacuum, Cordless, Grey (BDH2000PL)

I had one of the very old models of black & decker and the difference in suction is phenomenal. Only complaint I have is that I wish I came with a few attachments.

Like the heck out of this vacuum. Good suction and power lasts for long time. Easy to use and to empty. Comfortable to hold and light weight.

It takes about 4 hours to charge. Based on other reviews, I timed how long the battery would last for the charge. Mine is consistent with others; it lasted 9 minutes and 30 seconds. I vacuumed half of my mid-size SUV, charged the vacuum, did the other half of my car the next day. Its not very productive to begin a chore and complete it the next day. It did a very nice job, though! I was able to get into some nooks that I didnt think was possible. I like the pivot feature, too. The interior of the car looks pretty darn good, and clean too! Using the vast capabilities of web searches, it is also a true statement that a replacement battery for this product cannot be located. This is good: the product guide has directions on how to safely remove the battery for disposal when it can no longer take a charge. This is awful, not environmentally friendly, and contrary to common sense: there is no replacement battery option at the time of this writing. I really like this product. It performs well for my needs. I hope B&D will have a battery option when mine decides to die.

This is the best hand held vacuum we have had, and we have had many. Time will tell but so far it’s good. Great pickup.

Its a nice little vacuum. I have been buying them for years. This particular model leaks debris when placed in the charger, the flap inside is flimsy and does not locks well to prevent dirt from coming out. I usually place the vacuum in the palm of my hand and turn it on to make sure debris is all in. Secondly, the batteries died out after about 16 months and to replaced them you have to solder them and also, they are expensive- Its cheaper to replaced vacuum than replacing the batteries. I wish they correct these flaws since it is a nice vacuum.

It’s just what I was looking for and has nice features built in for that you don’t have to search for while using.

Will this replace your canister vacuum? No. The power is nowhere near what you get out of shop vac or a decent canister. That said, who wants to haul out the vacuum from the closet and drag it into the kitchen to pick up a handful of spilled sesame seeds, or pickup small debris on car mats, or capture a stray dust bunny in a corner. This thing is all about convenience. It’s always handy and easy to deploy. The features are nice and it looks well build. I just hope it lasts because we don’t like the idea of creating more e-waste. B&D should be ashamed that they created a product that uses a non serviceable battery. And we should be ashamed we bought it, but there’s no hand vac we found with replaceable batteries. So good enough piece of cleaning equipment. I suspect better than most.

Great suction. Holds charge. Good job on upholstery and everything Ive used it on. Just what I was looking for (and disappointed with in others). We dont have stairs, but I think it would be great for that as well. Plan to use in car also.

It is a little difficult to open the machine to remove the dust filter and wash it. But after you do it a couple times you get the hang of it.

I have another hand vacuum from the same brand, but do not like it nearly half as much as I love this one. This hand vacuum is an amazing size, you can fold the nozzle when you are finished for space purposes. It is easy to charge. The charger is not huge. The suction is amazing easy cleaning. Nothing to install. I use this hand vacuum mostly to clean my sofas. It is extremely durable.
