BLACK+DECKER Powerseries+ 16V Max Cordless Vacuum (BHFEA420J)

I recently purchased the BLACK+DECKER POWERSERIES+ 16V MAX Cordless Stick Vacuum (BHFEA420J) and it has quickly become an essential tool for keeping my home clean. Here’s my detailed review based on its performance and features:

**Performance**: This vacuum delivers impressive suction power for a cordless model. It effectively picks up dirt, dust, and debris from various surfaces, including hardwood floors, carpets, and tiles. The 16V MAX battery provides enough power for a thorough cleaning session, and the vacuum maintains consistent performance without losing suction as the battery depletes.

**Lightweight and Maneuverable**: One of the standout features is its lightweight design. Weighing just a few pounds, it’s incredibly easy to maneuver around the house, making it perfect for quick clean-ups and reaching tight spaces. The swivel steering adds to its agility, allowing for smooth navigation around furniture and obstacles.

**LED Floor Lights**: The built-in LED floor lights are a game-changer. They illuminate dark corners and under furniture, ensuring no dirt or dust is left behind. This feature has made a noticeable difference in the thoroughness of my cleaning routine.

**Multi-Surface Capability**: The vacuum transitions seamlessly between different floor types. Whether it’s hardwood, carpet, or tile, the POWERSERIES+ performs well across all surfaces. The motorized brush head is effective at lifting embedded dirt from carpets while being gentle on hard floors.

**Battery Life and Charging**: The battery life is adequate for a small to medium-sized home, providing about 30-40 minutes of runtime on a full charge. The vacuum comes with a wall-mountable charging base, which makes storing and recharging convenient. However, for larger homes, an additional battery might be necessary to complete the entire cleaning in one go.

**Ease of Maintenance**: The dustbin is easy to empty, and the filters are washable, which helps in maintaining the vacuum’s performance over time. The design ensures that maintenance is straightforward and hassle-free.

**Aesthetic and Build Quality**: The vacuum has a sleek, modern design with a white finish that looks great in any home setting. The build quality feels sturdy and durable, indicating that it can withstand regular use.

**Cons**: The only minor drawbacks are the noise level, which is a bit higher than expected, and the battery life could be longer for larger cleaning tasks. However, these are minor issues compared to the overall performance and convenience.

In conclusion, the BLACK+DECKER POWERSERIES+ 16V MAX Cordless Stick Vacuum is a highly effective and versatile cleaning tool. Its lightweight design, powerful suction, and LED floor lights make it a valuable addition to any home. Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers excellent value for its price and significantly improves the ease and efficiency of daily cleaning routines.

I have always wanted a cordless vacuum for quick pickup and now I have found the perfect one! My husband and I are retired, no pets, grandchildren are all grown, but we still manage to get stuff on the floor every day. What I really like about this cordless vacuum:
It is small, lightweight and easy to maneuver and since we have a very small utility room it fits perfectly next to dryer. (see picture).
It does not have to stay plugged into charging unit. Again, small utility room no extra plug or space for charging unit. It has a separate charger that can be plugged into a wall outlet.
It lasts a long time on a charge (average about a week for us and we use it every day to do quick pick ups.)
It is so convenient! Instead of getting out the big vacuum or the broom/dust pan when there is a mess on the floor, I grab this vacuum.
The dirt cup is easy to take off and clean. Filter can be easily washed.
I love, love, the light on the front that shows what needs to be picked up.
I like how it goes from hard surface to carpet. We have wood/tile floors in all our rooms except for one room. But we do have small throw rugs in front of our doors. As soon as you move the vacuum to the carpet, the vacuum senses and changes to carpet mode.
Last but not least, it was SO affordable! My kids have an expensive Dyson cordless and having used when visiting, I can honestly say this Black & Decker cordless does just as good if not better job.

Excelente por el precio. Tenia un Dyson antes y aunque no es tan bueno es cerca y por ser 4 veces mas barato es excelente. Comodo a usar, me gusta la luz en frente, agarra todo es bastante poderoso.

I love it !! Have 2 dogs and hair is everywhere. I was picking up clumps of dog hair everyday – somewhere in the house. I researched and almost ordered several different vacuums until I found the shark. It works on hardwood floors and carpet. The suction is amazingly strong. I love how easy it is to empty and clean the reservoir that holds the dirt and dust. The vacuum is extremely light weight and stands up by itself. I was so thrilled with it. I bought one for my mother.

I love this vacuum so much! It is one of the best purchases I’ve had when it comes to vacuums. For such a small and compact device I am quite surprised at the sucking capacity. It has automatic sensors and you don’t need to switch if you go from the rug to the floor. It is lightweight, flexible and best of all…. NO CORD!! It saves me so much time and energy just wrangling around the heavy cord. It also saves me time from unplugging and plugging it if one can’t reach areas of your home. I can clean under the furniture without having to move them! I also love the light fixtures that lets me see invisible dust and crumb particles that usually get ignored. Cleaning it is easy! The only downside is that the battery lasts for 20-30 minutes but I’m perfectly fine with it. It takes a long time to fully charge, about 5 hours but its nothing compared to the time and energy saved from how easy it is to handle. It also compact and does not take up a lot of space in the corner. I absolutely love this vacuum and cannot stress enough how good it is for a 2BD apartment! I won’t recommend it for a more heavier duty cleaning with a bigger house.

Bueno Bonito y Buen precio, esta aspiradora limpia perfectamente, dura bastante la batería, yo aspiro limpiar dos veces mi departamento antes de tener que volver a cargarla. tiene una luz que te ayuda a ver el polvo que normalmente no se nota, sus cabezas son excelentes y ayuda a limpiar pelo extremandamente bien.
