Does a good job with surface dust. Not enough power to be effective with anything else. Design of product causes constant clogging.

Great little vac for the sailboat. Charge at home, no power needed on the dock.

I have had a lot of dust busters and this one is the best one I've had by far! It picks up almost anything...

the batteries start to age. Then it won't hold a charge for very long. Instead of a buying a new one, here's a way to "rebuild" the pack:

This is my second DustBuster and it's better than the first. It has a nice filter and enough power for small jobs when you don't want to lug out the heavy vacuum.

ONE WARNING: Sometimes it sold by Amazon.com with FREE shipping. Other times it's MORE expensive and shipping is not included. I love Amazon but wish they were more consistent.

I've only used this for three months. So far it's been excellent. I previously owned "dustbusters" and have been satisfied with their performance. Each newer model seems better than the one it replaces. I've read the other reviews, although not before purchasing this one. The suction of this one is FAR SUPERIOR to those I've previously owned. I use it mainly around the home to clean up small spills or my cars floor mats (rubber). Most of the complaints seem to be that it won't suck pet hair off a sofa or rug and only stays charged for only 10 minutes of use. I purchased mine to use on relatively minor clean up jobs and I'm very happy so far. For large jobs - pet hair, constant used for over 10 minutes and when greater suction is needed; I drag out my canister or upright vacuum. I'll try to update this review in about one year. Thank you.

Cons are nothing compared to the pros, but still listed them out bcoz this is not a wonder product and there shud be many choices out there and design of all them shud be failry similar.

Pros: handy, quiet , easy to use, good looking piece, quality product
Wiped off my car seat neat and clean in two if not just one sweep.
very effective in kitchen and dining area, can pick up stuff which wud usally leave smears if cleaned in any other way
easy clean filter, cud see fine grain dust also captured which is awesome considering the fact that this is no a heavy duty vacuum.
you will get a apprx 3" extension hose and a bristle end also hooked up to the same body which come in real handy.

cons: ok since it is naturally not that "all powerful" vacuum , it won't exactly suck off all stuff embedded in that lush carpet(car) of yours (using brush at the end might help at times ) .

The adaptor is a little clumsy, with the bulk head at the socket end and a thin wire the actual holder, I wud have rather designed it the other way around(carry AC power all the way and put that bulky AC/DC converter with the holder body.

The light indicator used to show charging status is on the back of the handle , and is small red led (a bad choice) , you really have to stoop on to it to see whether it is on , or the room has to be dim lit to see it clearly

I have three dogs and this really helps me keep up on the dog hair all over. Works very well and very easy to get into corners and hard to reach areas.

This is larger than my first dust buster but it takes up no more room than the original. It has great pick-up power and I find myself grabing it instead of the vacuum cleaner to do small jobs. It is lightweight and handy. I love it.

Received the product "Black &Decker Dust Buster" and so far really very satisfied with the product. It's so handy for picking up those little dust thingies on the floor and little sweeeping jobs are so now done easily with a touch of the button. So yes love it, and the fact it's always ready and charge to go.

This vacuum snail collector works on the principle that "masses are better", whereby collecting a large number of snails will thereby cut the labor time it normally takes to amass such creatures. It uses a .6g vacuum engine which is quiet and sturdy, doesn't need maintenance and can even be used near ponds, where snails tend to congregate. If you are a restaurateur, then this is a great product for selling "fake French escargots" for the amount it takes to pay a hermit to collect them.

Nice suction for a small vac, engineered well, lightweight and comes with a nice attachment for vacuuming in tight spaces. The only con is that the charge only lasts 15-20 minutes, which is OK, but wish it lasted a little longer. It charges fast though. Overall for the price and quality, I recommend it!

Hi, I can't believe I fell for all the other reviews. This did not even last the 9 min it states in the pamphlet, and yes, I did charge it for the 16 hours it calls for. It also does NOT pick up pet hair unless it's off a bare floor. The suction is terrible, do not fall for this gadget unless it's to use on bare floors or for quick non-stuck pick up.

This is a cute, powerful, versatile vacuum cleaner. The only drawback is the short battery life (~15 mins). It's great for quick cleanups, car cleaning, and to clean hard-to-reach areas.

I got this product in January and have been using it everyday to manage crazy shedding of hair by my dog all around the house. Its so handy and efficient I have not used my regular cleaner in months. This does most of the work on my all hardwood floor apt. I use a dry mop to clean the floor and this cleaner to suck dust off on all my furniture, high traffic areas, counters, mats, carpets and the list goes on!!!

This dust buster works better than any I have ever had. The suction power is at least as good- if not better than my regular vac. I bought it for the little messes that come with having 3 sons...my only mistake was ever telling one to pick it up and use it himself! They LOVE it! They either are on the hunt for something to suck up- or have gone so far as to make something messy to suck up! This is a great product that is easy enough for a 3 year old to use! Luckily it charges very quickly and holds a charge for a very long time- since it has gotten LOTS of use and my boys aren't great about putting it back where it belongs!

With a five year old and a two year old this dustbuster helps me easily keep my car clean. It is very handy and easy to empty! I am very happy I purchased it; I just wish I would have had it a long time ago!

I got the whole thing delivered for under $16. And it works great. I am very happy

works great for little jobs and gets those spiders and cobwebs that drive me nuts!

I bought 2 of these because they were on sale. I have many vaccums, but this is the one we use the most! They are great, the kids love to use them to clean up their messes! It is lightweight, easy to use and empty.

I like this Dustbuster after having had it for about a month or so. It's got lots of suction and so far I've only had to charge it once (when I got it). I considered a higher voltage model but went for this one since it was a little cheaper. So far, so good.

This is our second one - one for downstairs, one for upstairs. I could never get my 13 to sweep up little dry spills and messes, but he readily vacs them up with the dust buster, which is discreetly stored under a chair in its charging base.

Great dustbuster! This one replaces a 20 year old dustbuster that was still working. I just needed an update. It's perfect and Amazon prices and services CANNOT be beat!!

Have had similar product for years. It finally quit picking up much. The Dustbuster is just what I wanted. Thanks.

Great for the neat-freak stuck in a dorm room! Works well on carpeted floors, holds a charge, easy to store.

We ordered the Black and Decker dustbuster on a sale and got it for $29- a fantastic buy for the money. It's very lightweight and can get into small spaces that you don't want to lug out your big vacuum or attachments for.

very good product,I have been using dust busters for years.I would not buy anything else.

How did I get by without this for so long? Back in the day we had a dustbuster that worked at low strength and only for a few minutes before it needed recharging. This thing has pretty good suction power and lasts long enough that I have yet to run out of juice while using it. The suction could be a little stronger, but overall, this is an excellent product. Defintely not the dustbuster of yesteryears.

1. It works perfectly. I use it to clean up some small ares in the house and in my car. It gets the job done. It's not terribly noisy when turned on.
2. Once in a while, I might find dead bugs on the carpet or floor. This becomes really handy picking them up.
3. Price is good: I paid only $[...] from amazon.com w/ free shipping. This is a steal.

REMEMBER: Charge the battery for at least 16 hours before you use it for the first time!

The charge on this Dustbuster lasts a very long time-pick-up is very good-
the price is right-great for all small cleanups

This isn't the most powerful DustBuster out there. However, I use it daily for crumbs (and there are a lot of them), dirt, pet hair, and anything else that falls on the floor. It holds it's charge for several minutes and sucks up most everything. It is a little difficult to get all the debris out, but worth the price.

I got this as a Gold Box Special on Amazon, so it was even less than the listed price, and it was really a bargain. It's a very strong little sweeper. It's great for sweeping the inside of the car. I especially like that I can just leave it plugged in without it overcharging. I'd buy it again.

we bought this vacum from walmart for 25 bucks about 6 months ago,actually it works great.my husband is using it for his new car and i use it for kitchen,the most important part to keep the suction power works as long as you can is to charge it for 3-4 hours and recharge it again but after fully emptying its charge [i mean after the battery is really dead] every time,and not to put it in plug after evey use,just after the battery is dead.ALSO it is not for big area cleaning.i recomend it to afriend.

What a great product. It took me awhile to decide if I wanted to buy an "appliance" online. But I am glad I went with this choice. I love how the attachements are built right into the bottom of the dustbuster so you do not have that to worry about. It also has excellent sucking power which I got to use last night when my 2 year old spilled a whole jar of parm cheese on the floor. It picked it right up no problem!!! Great product!!!

I bought this product in $17. In this price its a very good buy and i found it very powerful also.
