5.0 out of 5 stars Great for daily upkeep, easy to unclog

I have used this vacuum for about 6 months now, and I LOVE IT. A few things I want to point out:First of all, with any cordless vacuum you are not going to get the same power or suction as a corded vacuum, period. Manage your expectations - you are trading suction power for the convenience of having no cord. Cordless vacuums are great for quick, daily upkeep in between your full cleaning days (where you should be using a regular corded vacuum).I got this vacuum because we recently got a bunny, and therefore introduced a lot of hay - and a LOT more fur - into our home. This thing picks up anything and everything, and works great on our hardwood, low pile rugs, and high pile carpeted bedrooms. We use it every evening for at least 10 or 15 minutes straight on the high setting, and it doesn't run out of juice.Some of my favorite things about it:1) It is easy to unclog. As an ex housekeeper, this is everything to me. Like I said, we use this mainly to pick up hay that our rabbit has scattered around. Inevitably, long bits of hay will get wrapped around the brush and cause a clog. We know and expect this to happen, considering the abuse we put this thing through. This vacuum has a simple, effective design that makes it easy to take apart and clean/unclog. The brush easily detaches with a button on the side of the head, and you can look down the neck to spot where the clog is.Since most people aren't vacuuming hay on the regular, you really shouldn't need to take this vacuum apart often. But if you need to, its nice to not spend hours fussing around, unscrewing parts, cursing like a sailor, and watching YouTube videos on how to put your vacuum together again. The design of this vacuum really is so simple and user friendly.2) It DOES stand up on its own. You just need to make sure you hear a click sound when you move the neck and handle to the upright position.3) It's very lightweight. I don't get fatigued using it or carrying it around.4) Good battery life. I am able to use this on the high setting for a quick once over of my entire ~1300 sq ft. home (with hardwoods, rugs, and carpets) before I need to recharge. If you have a larger home, again, manage your expectations.5) The handheld option and attachment is very convenient. I love to use it for sucking up the dust and dead bugs that get stuck in the tracks of our windows and sliding glass door.My not-so-favorite things about it:1) The low setting is basically useless. Even on hardwood floors, it doesn't seem to do much. I always go immediately to the high setting.2) The dust cup falls forward when you press the button to remove it. The first time you do it, it will feel like the thing practically jumps out to attack you. Just remember to have one hand on the clear canister part when you press the release button. It's really not a big deal, but it did surprise me the first time I went to empty it.Overall its a great little vacuum. Perfect for our evening tidying up before we go to bed, and its a quick and easy grab for random spills/messes. For a deeper, more thorough clean I will always rely on my corded Shark vacuum. For literally everything else, this B&D cordless vac is a winner. 10/10. You don't need to break the bank on a Dyson, I promise. If you have one really good cordless vac (this one), and one really good corded vac (I recommend the Shark Navigator Lift-Away), you won't need anything else.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended!

Five stars because the price cannot be beat for what you get. Insane suction power! Smaller canister paired with the insane suction means you have to empty it often. The battery charge doesn’t last long but it’s $100 vacuum so 15 min is expected in my opinion. I want to get a second one for my upstairs to do daily touch ups. It’s perfect for vacuuming a 1000 sf or so hard floors. Rugs take a little more out of its but I vacuum our hard floors and 2 area rugs with it daily and it doesn’t run out of battery. I can’t get over the suction power for it being cordless.Things I’d change: I wish it had more attachments. I wish the canister was a tin bit bigger and the battery lasted like 30 min but can’t complain because it’s so cheap.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good and versatile for different surfaces. Headlights are especially useful.

I got this used at half the price. What can I say, it's a lightweight battery powered vacuum but it''s especially nice in that it stands on its own so you don't have to mount it and it does a very creditable job of minor vacuum messes. It has two features that make it very useful. One is that it has LED lights that really help you to see what is and isn't picked up; the other is that it automatically adjust the suction speed for carpets or bare floors. The second is a little bit hit and miss, but overall its useful. I mostly use it for cat litter getting tracked on Saltillo tile floors and its been terrific for that. The lights make the litter almost florescent, so it's easy to see if you miss something and it works better than any other vacuum for the uneven surface. But it does a good job on my area rugs as well.The capacity of the storage cup is pretty small but it's adequate and it's easier to empty and clean than other low cost battery vacuums I've used.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lightweight and Versatile Cordless Vacuum for Everyday Cleaning

S.P. · June 2, 2025

The BLACK+DECKER POWERSERIES+ 16V MAX Cordless Stick Vacuum (BHFEA420J) is a lightweight and versatile cleaning tool, weighing just 8 pounds. Its AUTOSENSE™ technology automatically adjusts suction power based on floor type, optimizing performance and battery life. The vacuum offers up to 40 minutes of runtime, making it suitable for quick cleanups in small to medium-sized homes. Features like LED floorhead lights, an anti-tangle brush bar, and cyclonic filtration enhance its usability. However, some users have noted that the battery may deplete quickly on high suction settings, and it may not be ideal for high-pile carpets or heavy pet hair. Overall, it's a solid choice for those seeking an affordable and efficient cordless vacuum for everyday use.

Me encanto y más por el costo, es facil de utilizar, se ve de buena calidad y la presión para aspirara todo es muy buena.Sólo que la pila dura poco, como media hora, pero de todo lo demás esta super bien.

Best stick vacuum for the money

N.N. · May 16, 2025

I don't leave many positive reviews, but this is onemof those times where I really want to give credit where credit is due. This is by far the best value for money stick vacuum out there. I own two, and bought one for my parents. They are extremely functional, light weight, and bulletproof - my first one is still going strong after four years of use. My parents use this one more than their old Dyson, which barely holds the charge anymore. I've tried half a dozen other stick vacuums as well, including other well known brands like Shark and Hoover, and this things Beats them all in use and reliability. If you're on the fence - buy it, you won't regret it.

its 18v, not 20v as described...

...and 40 mins estimated use instead of 44 mins. But the biggest concern is that it uses a small 2-hole adapter that plugs near the handle instead of just having charging connectors / pins like most rechargeable vacuums. Worried that the plug won't last long enough with having to plug and unplug it many times to charge. Will return it most likely.
