Review on Gray Cordless BLACK+DECKER Dusbuster Handheld Vacuum (Model: HHVK415B01) by Stephanie Slevira

This vacuum cleaner is bulky and heavy. My wrist hurts when maneuvering. It's supposed to be the "new" model, but it doesn't have the old model's brush head and it doesn't have the 180* crevice tool option, which would be more comfortable on my wrist. The retractable crevice nozzle keeps coming back. I keep having to withdraw it. It really should have locking technology, not just a "click". The base is so big and chunky that even with the crevice tool you can't vacuum under things very deeply. This also makes control more difficult. It definitely doesn't "slip" across the floor that easily. I liked the easy one touch drain option, but the filter (and pre-filter) look like they need to be taken out and cleaned after just a few uses. This is not ideal for every hair as it will get stuck in the filter. The suction power is pretty good, but I HATE the power boost on the "ON" button. It gets SO LOUD and you MUST click on that option to turn it off. Will be returned.
