Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Providing the ultimate in power and convenience, this 15-3/5-volt cordless handheld vacuum features a cyclonic-action filter system that prevents dirt from sticking to the filter. Dirt and debris, instead, are circulated in the bowl and around the filter, allowing air to pass through the machine with no reduction in suction power. With its efficient filtration system, the unit has more power and more run time to accommodate tough cleaning jobs. And when the dirt bin is full, it’s easy to tell with the translucent dirt container. The unit also comes equipped with a filter-cleaning wheel that allows for shaking off fine debris that gets into the filter by merely turning the dial--one turn increases suction power by 80 percent. Other convenient features include a quick-slide charging system, a 23-ounce capacity, and three-stage filtration for clean air exhaust, as well as a HEPA filter that traps 99.7 percent of dust particles, keeping air free of allergens. On-board attachments include an upholstery brush and a crevice tool for hard-to-reach areas. The vacuum measures approximately 17-1/2 by 5-1/2 by 7-1/2 inches and carries a full two-year warranty.

Product Description

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!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best mini-vacuum ever..., January 27, 2005

This review is from: Black & Decker CHV1500 15.6-Volt HEPA Cyclonic DustBuster (Kitchen)
I am going to try and keep this short and sweet because this 15.6V DustBuster does exactly what it is supposed to do: it has tremendous suction. Suffice it to say, I was a little leery of buying it because it's a little pricey and I have had really bad experiences with these types of products in the past (check out my review of the Shark EP750ST Deluxe Cordless Handheld Vacuum).

Well, color me impressed. The suction is FANTASTIC. The battery seems to last forever. I have yet to run low on a charge in usage up to 15 mins continuously. Also, if the battery should ever begin to lose its power charge duration over time, the CHV1500 has the ability to swap it out for a new. This is a big coup! It also has a HEPA filter and a great canister for storing dirt that makes it easy to empty. All in all, someone finally did their research here. Kudos Black and Decker.

So, if you are thinking of buying a dustbuster, I can wholeheartedly recommend this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars This thing sucks, January 7, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker CHV1500 15.6-Volt HEPA Cyclonic DustBuster (Kitchen)
I'm sorry, as terrible a pun as it is, I couldn't help myself.

This replaces a 3 year-old DustBuster that finally couldn't keep a charge. We use it to clean up random small messes around the house which, with two small kids and a cat, means it gets lots of use. Lots of power, great pickup, reasonable single-charge performance (8-10 minutes), with a very effective and easy to clean filter make it a HUGE improvement over our old unit. In fact, it's enough of an improvement that I'm sorry we didn't replace the old one earlier. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that $10 for the replacement HEPA filter is highway robbery; I also suspect that the replaceable battery is too expensive to really make it a useful option.

Oh, and don't expect it to pickup cat hair, etc., it won't; This unit is designed for things like lose dirt and cereal.

Update: It does have one brain-dead design flaw. On prior models the vac exhaust is on the unit's side, on this unit it's on the bottom opposite the handle. On several occasions now I've managed to blow dust, hair, etc. all over the room after overrunning what ever it is I was trying to pick up. The rating stands though.

4.0 out of 5 stars They've done a much better job this time!, September 10, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker CHV1500 15.6-Volt HEPA Cyclonic DustBuster (Kitchen)
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!
