Black & Decker dustbuster extra Cordless Hand Vacuum - Washable, Bagless Dust Bowl Review
Cleaning up small messes around the house or detailing your car doesn't have to be a hassle anymore, thanks to the Black & Decker Cordless Hand Vacuum, model HHVK320J00W. This compact yet powerful vacuum has quickly become one of my go-to tools for quick clean-ups, and here's why.
Design and Build Quality
Right out of the box, the first thing that impressed me was how lightweight the vacuum is. Weighing in at just 3.3 pounds, it's easy to carry around, even for extended cleaning sessions. The design is sleek and functional, with a translucent, bagless dirt bowl that makes it easy to monitor dirt levels. This feature is particularly handy because you can see when it’s time to empty the bin without having to guess.
The vacuum also comes with a built-in crevice tool that extends up to 5 inches, making it much easier to reach tight spots. I found this especially useful for cleaning between car seats and reaching into the nooks and crannies of my couch. However, I did notice that the crevice tool can sometimes retract back into the vacuum when you're using it, which can be a bit annoying.
Performance
When it comes to suction power, this little vacuum packs a punch. It features multiple power modes, including a high setting that is particularly effective for more demanding tasks like cleaning carpets or dealing with pet hair. I was pleasantly surprised by how well it picked up pet hair from my sofa, making it a great tool for pet owners.
The battery life is another strong point. With 90% more runtime than previous models, I found that I could complete most of my cleaning tasks without needing to recharge. The LED battery indicator is a thoughtful addition, letting me know exactly when it’s time to plug it in. However, running the vacuum on its highest setting does drain the battery more quickly, so it's something to keep in mind for larger cleaning jobs.
Usability
One of the standout features of this vacuum is its ease of use. The power button is conveniently located on the handle and allows you to switch between different suction strengths effortlessly. The vacuum is also relatively quiet, even on higher settings, which is a nice change from some of the louder models I’ve used in the past.
Emptying the dustbin is straightforward and mess-free. A simple press of a button releases the bin, and the wide opening ensures that all debris is easily disposed of. The washable bowl and filter are also easy to clean, making maintenance a breeze.
Storage and Charging
The vacuum comes with a wall mount for easy storage, which is a great space-saving feature. However, the charging setup could use some improvement. The vacuum needs to be plugged in with a small plug and a relatively short cord, which can be inconvenient if you don’t have an outlet near your storage space. A docking station would have been a more user-friendly option.
Areas for Improvement
While this vacuum excels in many areas, there are a few aspects that could be improved. The retractable crevice tool, as mentioned earlier, doesn’t always stay extended, which can be frustrating. Additionally, although the vacuum is powerful, its suction strength can vary depending on the charge level and the mode you’re using. It’s also worth noting that the vacuum’s body is somewhat bulky, which can make it challenging to maneuver in very tight spaces.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the Black & Decker Cordless Hand Vacuum is a versatile and powerful tool that excels in many areas. Its lightweight design, strong suction, and long battery life make it an excellent choice for quick clean-ups around the house and in the car. The built-in crevice tool and washable components add to its convenience, though the charging setup and occasional issues with the retractable tool leave room for improvement.
Would I recommend this vacuum? Absolutely. It’s a reliable, high-performing tool that makes cleaning small messes quick and easy. Whether you’re dealing with pet hair, crumbs, or dirt, this vacuum has the power and features to get the job done efficiently. If you’re in the market for a handheld vacuum that offers both convenience and performance, the Black & Decker Cordless Hand Vacuum is definitely worth considering.
