Black and Decker Dustbuster CHV1510 15.6v Review

- Hi Guys, today I’m reviewing the Black and Decker Dustbuster 15.6 Volt cordless hand vac. LINK TO Black & Decker Dustbuster: amzn.to/2stCstT The unit weighs about 3 pounds so it’s extremely light and easy to handle. When you buy the unit, it will have some charge right out of the box so you can vacuum right away. You will have to charge the unit for 24 hours for a full charge.
Plug the charger into this socket and the indicator light will turn on. You would expect the light to turn green when it is fully charged but it doesn’t. It would have been such an easy feature for Black and Decker to add to the vacuum. This is the on/off switch. Press this button to release the nozzle. Press this button to release the dust bowl. Inside is the plastic pre-filter. To remove it, twist it clockwise. This is the cloth filter which is re-usable. B&D recommends changing this every 6 - 9 months. To assemble it, put the plastic filter over the cloth filter. Twist it into the slots counterclockwise. Put the filters into the bowl and push it into the handle until it clicks. Put the nozzle back in until it clicks.
The nozzle is slim and can get into crevices. A brush and crevice tool are on the nozzle so there is no extra storage to worry about. The crevice tool can be pulled out until it locks. The brush can be flipped up for use. That’s a nice feature because it doesn’t get in the way when you’re vacuuming.
Press this button to rotate the nozzle until it clicks. If you want to mount this unit to a wall, a bracket and screws are included.
I came back from the beach and couldn’t wait to clean up the sand in my car. As you can see the suction is very powerful. Reaching down to clean the mats isn’t hard because the vacuum is light. Car seats are easy to clean and the Black and Decker gets into the crevices to pick up crumbs.
It also did a good job of getting dust off the trim on walls.
The vacuum works well on hardwood floors and tile floors. It picked up oats and flour even from the cracks in the floor.
The vacuum is loud but it’s not high pitched and I’m happy that it doesn’t hurt my very sensitive ears. After use, remove the bowl and empty it. The filters and bowl can be washed with mild soap and water. Make sure they are completely dry before assembling the vacuum.
The Black and Decker Dustbuster is a good value at around $50. - Jak na to + styl
Short and to the point. This video answered all the my questions. Great review.
Excellent video! Wish all demonstration videos were as short and to the point as this one. So many folks doing demos talk, and talk, and talk. This is great.
+Christine Blake Hi Christine, thanks so much for the positive comment. Please subscribe :)
Wow I have had this dustbuster for a few years and only after seeing you video did I know about the extension --lol I had looked this up since I had a mental block on how to get the filters out which you help to refresh my mind!! Got an added bonus learning about the extension--thanks so much!
Valerie Rose Hi Valerie, you're welcome! Sometimes we all need a refresher - glad the video was useful. Please subscribe :-)
Thanks, I'm back in business, duster-wise. The review was easy to understand and well-lit.
It covered everything I needed to know, and nothing I didn't.
Thanks Judy! Glad you enjoyed the review. Please subscribe if you haven't already :)
My parents and I have the same brand of vacuum cleaner at home. It’s white and burgundy whereas my 👵 never used it. She also never charged it. Good review! 👏🏻
Thanks for sharing 😀
So far now it works really really good.
Great review. I just bought one the other day. I think I’m taking it back. It cuts on and off. It’s fully charged.
I have a lab & a German Shepard who shed like crazy & this vacuum is amazing🌼 I literally use it on everything; bed, stairs, window sill, base boards, etc.
Great review! Love your channel!
theoboegoddess Thanks, glad you enjoyed the review :-)
wow! it's really helpful for choosing my best vac.Thanks.
Thanks, glad the video was helpful :)
I need this for my kids' stroller. Nice review!

im sold. thank you for the great review
Sushi Glad you enjoyed the review :-)
Hi Julio, after a full charge, the vacuum ran for about 15 minutes. Glad you enjoyed the review :-)
Do a review on the Hyla gst vacuum

First, per CA requirements, the LED does not turn green when charged so there is no drain on the electrical grid. Yea, one small LED draws so little that even moonbeam would not know. But it is a requirement. Besides....if it is not red and it is OFF and it is plugged in, very easy to determine it is charged...DUH!
Second, I purchased one of these in April 2012; it is now May 2016 and the battery is just now starting to not hold a charge. Over 4 years with heavy use is NOT bad and will most likely replace with the exact same model (unless I can find a replacement battery).
And when I say heavy use, I have two plus 100lb Alaskan Malamutes that shed garbage bags of fur on a daily basis in the spring. And the dustbuster was used along with a floor vacuum.
Lightweight, easy to connect, durable, good suction
Why is mine blowing the dust from the back? I'm sure that I installed the filter correctly
Wow, you really know how to do a review. I'm inclined to accept your opinion on any product.
theimmaculatecrown Thanks so much. Glad you enjoy the reviews :-)
what does it mean when a blue light shows up and it goes dead??
finally a decent review - thank you

no need for a green light to indicate that the unit is charged because the red light automatically goes off when unit is fully charged
Hello. Thank you for sharing this test. Very informative. However you have not mentioned anything about the flip out brush. Was it intentional ? Can it be used with the extension ? Thanks
NacNac Mott You're welcome, glad you found the review helpful. The flip out brush is to be used separately from the extension. It's tucked away and I only realized after I uploaded the video that it's use wasn't shown :-(
Just wish I could use it long enuf before the battery runs down. Seems like only use about 3 minutes if even that long and its ready to be charged again. I love the power it has..... just disappointed that it won't stayed charged long enough. I defiantly don''t get 15 minutes use out of it.
After 1 year and 2 months of light, occasional use the battery will not hold a charge, then it is useless.
Matt Warren Hi Matt, I believe there is a 2 year warranty on this vacuum. I would suggest calling Black and Decker and informing them of the issue.
I just bought this. I am having trouble slipping the nozzle into the base. One side seems to slip in place correctly. The other side does not...doesnt lock in place. Any suggestions please,
What if mine does not have a light at all blue nor red :/
I have owned many vacuums, namely a Dyson, Shark, Royal, and Miele C3. The Dyson and Shark have not held up and I no longer own them. Miele (C3) and Sebo (D4) are the only vacuums I will own in the future. Thier quality is beyond anything being made currently (my opinion).
After 3 months the battery doesn't recharge any more. Returned it tow times , same problem. It is a junck.

Where is the charge port located?
Great review. My question is... How long does the battery last? Thanks a lot.
My battery lasted for less than 6 months. It no longer holds a charge. Runs for a maximum of 10 seconds. It is a piece of garbage.
jwilleck I too made the mistake of buying this pos, total bad buy. 1) No green charge is complete indicator light 2) Doesn’t work when the power cord is connected 3) 15mins of use with a full charge(that’s when it was brand new) a real pos.
I don’t like handheld vacuums. Here’s why.
When I use handheld vacuums, they barely have any suction. Plus the filters are a pain to clean. I had one and I gave up on it a few months because it just picked up loose debris. I ended up upgrading to a ridgid. I still kept that handheld when I vacuum out my go kart and when I spill something so I don’t have to get the Ridgid out.
which one is better This one or the pivot one?
Hi Sunny, they both perform well but the pivot has a stronger suction :)
I just bought this vac I connect it to charge it and the red light doesn't come up the first time... It's that normal? Or I have to send it back cause I bought it online
radamantis001 Hi, check to make sure the cord is plugged in correctly and that the outlet is working. Also, the vacuum's switch should be in the "off" position. If everything is fine and there is still no red light, I would contact Black and Decker customer service. Hope that helps :-)
Is it good for dog hair?
Mine doesn't even come with a light to show it's charging....
Mine turns off on its own and it’s fully charge
We have two #CHV1510 Black & Decker Cordless Hand Vacs, 15.6V. They die out after a few minutes of vacuuming. What a waste of money. We had only had them for less than a year. Would love to have our money back.
Hi Blanche, I suggest contacting Black & Decker customer service. Hopefully, they can find a solution.
its worth it..for the price

The biggest 90% Complaint on this unit is the battery does not hold a charge for very long & begins to die down, make sure you turn the housing on the filter because it holds alot of crap which makes a strain on your batteries...yes you can remove the 6 screws & replace the bad battery out of 4 & voila your unit will have power again, the nickel cadmium batteries are notorious for dying down within a year, but the new Lithium battery is much better.
I bougt 3 units 6 monts ago 2 of the units do charge, I took it to the black and decker repair store, I was told that I need it a store bill, since I loss it, did not accept it I will never buy a black and decker product

No wall mount.
This is my fourth DustBuster. I love them. This particular one seems to have been designed in an engineering department located on the Dark Side.
Oh, it does all the picking up that all the other DustBusters but when you press the button to turn it off, watch out! Notice that the off button is only a HALF INCH from the dirt cup release button.
If you are not paying very close attention, the big dirt cup will detach and fall to the floor (or worse onto the couch) spilling all the contents collected in the cleaning session.
I think the expression is , "Aarrrrgh!" (Followed by a few choice invectives not for children).
I am literally afraid to use it anymore. Too many unexpected premature releases.
How could a company that invented the single most handy light in-house cleaning tool and set the standard in the engineering of this great idea let this dirt-dumper loose?
I dunno. But mine is now in retirement in the storage shed.
For heaven's sake, pick another model from B&D unless you're a housekeeping sadist.

This appliance does not hold a charge at all. Even when fully charged it gives out after a few seconds. Am really disappointed.
Robin K Hi Robin, the vacuum holds a charge for about 15 minutes. If yours doesn't, contact Black and Decker - there could be something with your unit.
Robin K I agree ... mine is only a few months old and does not hold a charge for more than 1-2 seconds
It has bad batteries I would pull them out and drop in a rc car li-po

I bought one of these and within a couple weeks it sounds like a jet engine and feels like it’s going to explode. It was $70. Waste of money, don’t recommend
lol u running it flat lol lol lololol
The failure to have a "charged" light in inexplicable. What a horribly designed product.
