Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker CHV1500 15.6-Volt HEPA Cyclonic DustBuster
Customer Review: They've done a much better job this time!
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this several months ago---I've been burned before with handhelds, so I was pretty skeptical about the mfg. claims. I have cageful of parakeets, and I hate having to drag out the corded big vacuum to clean up seeds and feathers all the time. This really does a good job, altho' like another reviewer said, I have to be careful what direction I face the exhaust. The crevice tool is stored onboard so it doesn't get lost, and just the right size for cleaning out sliding door tracks (every other vacuum attachment I've tried is JUST a little too big to actually fit into the groove). They need to figure out a way to store the little upholstery brush onboard, too.
The HEPA filter really does seem to keep dust from flying around. I ordered a replacement from Amazon to have it on hand, but I haven't needed to use it yet. This vacuum's easy to empty, and designed so when you put it nose-down in its charger, stuff doesn't fall out like it did with older models. It is a pain, however, to get the filter cover locked back into place if you take it out.
My friend (who also has birds) got a cordless Shark, and it's utterly useless. I'm going to order one of these for her---I think she'll like it a lot better.
PS: SHE DOES like it a lot better!~
02/23/08 Update:
I'm online to order my sixth one of these----and not because they haven't held up. I now have the original one in my pottery studio, the second near the catbox & bird cage, and the third in the kitchen. Today I'm ordering one to have near the paper shredders. I've ordered two more as gifts, and the recipients are just as happy with them as I am. Gave one to the bachelor son with three shedding dogs, and he loves it.
I've replaced the filter on the original one once in the past 2+ years. I shake the filter out over the trash bin about once a month. It still sucks up bits of dry clay like a champ, and doesn't spew the dust back into the air. With the crevice tool on it, it gets into nooks and crannies and along edges that are hard to clean well any other way.
This is just a great, hard-working tool!
Description of Black & Decker CHV1500 15.6-Volt HEPA Cyclonic DustBuster
Do you want in ultimate power and the convenience of cordless? Black and Decker is the first to bring Cyclonic Action to a Cordless Hand Held Vacuum! It is also the first to bring HEPA filtration to a cordless hand held. If you notice that your hand vac doesn't seem to pick up as much as it used to or it doesn't have as much power as you think it should, it's probably a clogged filter. With the new Cyclonic Action DustBuster, dirt and debris is circulated in the bowl and around the filter, allowing air to pass through the machine with no reduction in suction power. With the filtration system running so efficiently, the DustBuster has more power and more run time than any other cordless hand held vacuum in the marketplace. With the translucent bowl, you can actually see the dirt moving around the filter and you can tell when it's time to empty the collection bin. This 15.6 volt DustBuster also has a Filter Cleaning Wheel that allows you to shake off the fine debris that gets into the filter by merely turning the dial on the unit. No more touching your dirty filter to clean it out. And, because you are enhancing your filtration system by cleaning out the filter, one turn of the dial turns up the suction power by 80%. Additionally, the new 15.6 volt DustBuster also has a HEPA filter, the first cordless hand held in the marketplace. HEPA filters are the highest efficiency air filters available for the filtration of small particles. Defined by the Institute of Environmental Science, a Certified HEPA filter must capture a minimum of 99.97% of contaminants. Allergies? No problem!Handheld Vacuums
