Black & Decker 12v Dustbuster

As a full time childminder I much prefer this traditional design and the children I look after can easily access this cleaner and tidy up their own mess. I have a new dustbuster every 2 years, although my last model is 3 years old and I wanted to...

When taking the buster off its base its proving a little tricky, hopefully this will ease with regular usage.

Effective suction for larger bits of dirt and from smooth surfaces such as linoleum.. Good size and weight.

It's hard to remove from the charge base. It tends to stick fast and requires both hands to remove. Not effective at vacuuming carpets.

So easy to use, so easy to put back on charge. It is extremely useful, versatile and efficient at picking up dust, dirt, food, anything light and small. The motor is powerful and gives a considerable time of use before needing to recharge.

Charge time is relatively slow, 16 hours from new and a few hours if you run it down to far. This model is the basic model with no fancy attachments.

Powerful & very easy to use. I thought I would use it for inside the car now I have children but I find myself using it everywhere around the house. It's great for when you have wooden floors that collect fluff in the corners that you just want to...

Haven't found any yet - I'm just so pleased with it!

Not easy to get in and out of the holster assembly.

East to use very efficeint light weight I have 5 cats so as you can image I need to clear up most of the time Picks up cat liiter and crumbs no problem

No attachment for getting into corners

So easy to use: would not like to be without one. Saves getting out a vacuum cleaner. Excellent value.

It has a powerful suck and is easy to store.

Its 'gills' send out an equally powerful blow which makes my eyes smart and I have to wash them out with a saline solution. Also it doesn't have the tools that my original model had, although I gather that they can be ordered on line.

Kepps its charge very well

not easy to empty
