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

I read several reviews before deciding on this item. I agree with most that this is great for the vehicle. It has great suction, an extension spout for slender areas that are otherwise hard to get to and a little flip out brush to loosen hair from the carpet. I haven’t used it anywhere other than my car, because that’s what I purchased it for, but would imagine that it would be good anywhere you need to vacuum a small space. It holds a charge fine for me to clean out my 2 cars.

Ive sent 3 of these type of vacs back. This is a keeper. As a ride share driver with a black interior I need something quick and efficient. This delivered in spades. There is nothing negative to say. For the price its worth every penny. The reviews where people didnt understand how to work it? You gotta be dense. Its just what you need. Sure itll work around the house but its a car or shop vac. Itll pick up large objects but theyll get stuck. Use your hands, but for for dust, dirt, hair, smaller objects this is the bomb. Happy Uberman. Update. I charged the unit fully the 1st time. Approx 6 hrs. The LED light went off. It functioned very well as described above. The run time seemed short but I did not time it. Recharge took over 2 hours. The next use I timed. 8 1/2 minutes. Recharged again over 2 hours. Run time 8 minutes. Im assuming a bad unit so Im exchanging it for another. Its a great unit but run time and Recharge are poor. Lets see what the next one does. Final update. The new unit, again, works for about 10 minutes before the charge fails. Recharging its 2 1/2 - 3 hours. It works very well for quick cleaning jobs. For an uberman like myself itll be fine. Ill keep it. Its great to quick vac van after ubering.

First, This is a PUBLIC APOLOGY for my previous review which was based on hearsay and prejudice on my part. To all the engineers, machinists, technicians, designers and A SPECIAL well-done to rare upper management individual who allowed and supported such a RADICAL and FUNCTONAL, SOLID DESIGH TO come out of B&D and to REACH THE MARKETPLACE, please accept both my apology and also stand and accept my OUTSTANDING AWARDS for both BEST HANDHELD VACUUM FOR 2015/16!, MOST INNOVATIVE HANDHELD VACUUM OF 2015. Certainly looks as if you REALLY got it RIGHT the second time out. If there is another comparable vacuum in features, function and design on the market at even twice the price I havent found it t to waste my money yet. As far as I am concerned this B&D Swivel 20V Lion vacuum will be the last handheld I ever have to buy. Course I am 76, so I only have another estimated 15 years. *Design has the following outstanding features: 1. Quiet yet powerful Lithium battery powered what appears to be over-sized rare-earth magnet brushless motor. 2. Completely gasket sealed canister and filter cartridge that can be taken apart, IMMERSED if need be to clean off ALL dirt, dust and particles every time you empty it. To remove canister, nozzle from motor ONLY requires a gentle push of a large accessible and well marked button, a simple CW 10 degree turn of the pick-up nozzle with built in brush and extension for nooks and crannies, and 5 degree turn and it literally falls off. The nozzle/canister assembly allows easy pull out washable filter and a gentle push and 15 degree turn to remove pre-filter for washing/hair and debris removal, A dry damp cloth to wipe down motor and canister mounting as final touch. Then an easy reversal of above steps provides you with an almost antiseptically CLEAN (YAHOO!!!) vacuum cleaner, inside and out! 3. As with this type of spin-clean design, the vacuum maintains suction until canister is over 50% full (Max. capacity 1 1/2 cup of dirt, dust and debris ( approx. max 3/8 x 3/4 ).And you would require either a full-house renovation or once yearly house cleaning to accumulate that amount in one cleaning. Manufacturer suggests complete cleaning after every use. I fully agree because you can START with a NEW vacuum every time! 4. Oh and the pick up nozzle has built-in brush and extendable smaller nozzle and the whole thing swivels 115 degrees from handle , hence the name PIVOT. Besides allowing access, this feature allows you to swivel nozzle away from exhaust preventing pushing dust around on the floor! Think statically charged Styrofoam balls NOT being blown around the floor! 5. Priced very reasonable for the included features like the neat way it swivel folds into charging stand taking up only 5 1/2 square inches, Allowing it to store right on your kitchen counter cause, remember how you just rinsed it inside and out, and ready to vacuum up flour, bread crumbs, tec. BUT NOT liquid! As with all EXCEPT wet/dry vacuums you should never vacuum liquids. Based on observation after use to Based on my vacuuming ultra fine fireplace ashes, the filters appear to remove 95-98% of even fireplace ashes (cold), but even though washable, they cannot filter out water. 6. Did I mention its really sleek, soft smooth curves, and easy to hold with full circle handle so tight grip is not required.. 7.Unit is built from relatively thick impact resistant plastics , trade-off between solid and tonnage. The is mechanically sound and should last 10 + years with reasonable care and cleaning along with low impact dropping and minimal use of nozzle as a pry bar. The motor is large for this size vacuum, reasonably dust protected and easy to clean, has sufficient air flow completely around the entire motor and no discernible way to stall it. That said and with PROPER AND REPEATABLE after-use cleaning, proper charging per manufactures instructions, unit should out-clean and out-last any comparably priced vacuum on the market at time of writing (1/25/2016). Finally, I do NOT work for Black and Decker and am not being paid or receiving free use of a vacuum by anyone associated with them, or Amazon nor its vendors. (Not that couldnt use the dough as Im 76 on SS and I paid full price for my Pivot on Amazon.). My background is 50 plus years buying the only unit in the store that doesnt work and cant find receipt, the unit fails one hour/day/week after warranty expires and I have to fix as cant afford a new one. Oh and 30 plus years as a mechanical and electronic/electric design and maintenance Engineer/Manager. Worked as Jack-All-Trades for 25 years in the Electronic Semiconductor field (think chips w/o salt, calories and non-edible, except occasional family pet with your new I, Android, et al. My major expertise is in de-bugging, repairing, redesigning and evaluating equipment to improve function, reliability and ease of use and cost due to early failure attributable to misuse, wrong materials used,, marginal or poor design. I have fully checked out the vacuum over last 30 days and feel confident enough to recommend purchase. Reason for 4 star rating is due solely to lack of data over long term ownership and use.

es difici aspierar todo el carro por que la duracion de la bateria es muy corta, deberian mejorar eso, la verdad si succiona bien es de facil mantenimiento pero un trabajo tan simple como aspirar un auto normal se queda a la mitad, no es justo

Very powerful and must addition to your kitchen.

It works good. Good

I wanted to take a little be of my time to contribute to that brand, I bought the vacuum 1 year ago, now a weird noise was going on and it was not sucking as before. I reached out to the customer services and in 5min they reply asking 3 information, once I sent it took other 10min and they reply letting me know a new product was on the way :) 4 days later, here is the new product! Loved, thank you guys! I recommend 1000%

This hand vac was ranked best by a NYTs article and another best hand vacs of 2023 article. The one minus mentioned was the small cup capacity. What was not mentioned was that the area between where the nozzle dumps into the cup will clog if you pick up ANYTHING other than dust. You then have to stick your fingers into the cup and drag out the debris making sure you get it out of the nozzle where it gets stuck. In my case it is dog hair from a 10 lb doxie (not a lot of shedding) so if you have any pet that is a heavy shedder this will not be the hand vac for you. If you are picking up fine dust the suction is great.

A good design that works well. Construction is definitely a step above the lower priced vacs. The only addition I think would be useful would be a wider attachment since this has so much suction.

easy on off buttons. easy to clean. great power. foldability takes up less charging station space. it is jus a really well designed tool. have one upstairs and one downstairs. good product
