BLACK+DECKER 20V Max Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner with Floor Head & Pet Hair Brush - Lightweight, Powerful Suction for Hardwood Floors & Carpets - Ideal for Pet Hair Removal & Quick Home Cleaning (BDH2020FLFH)

Despite some negative comments here and on the web, I am actually quite happy with it. Let's break it down how this product scores:Usage: It is a very portable device, with a very useful flexible hose. It’s meant for those few minutes clean up job so do not expect it to have suction power like a corded vacuum. It work very well for the purpose it is made for.Worthiness : It is rather pricey compared to the lower end B&D 12v (FHV1200) which sells for half the price (USD 55). But what u get here is more powerful suction (pls see below for suction review) + a longer operation time (15mins). You also get more accessories, however I have the feeling I won’t be using the floor tool so it’s up to individual usage preference.Suction: Do not rate it via the voltage power and expect the 20v version to have 60% more power than the 12v version, the suction power do not go up with the voltage ratings. I do not own the 12v model but I have tried it in the local shop, my guess is that the 20v version get 25-30% more suction power than the 12v model, or less… I cannot really gauge.Will I recommend it? : Yes if you want the longer running operational time and you need the floor tool, and you want the best suction . No if you want to just vacuum a small area that can be done within 10 mins and you do not need the floor tool. The 12v one at half the price is better value if you do not need these extras features which is really not that crucial to get the cleaning job done.Also pls note that the charging time for the 20v is 4-6 hrs, while the 12v is like 12 hrs or so ... therefore, if u use it once a day the 12v model will not be a problem.What I do not like: It is noisy (noisier than my corded Bosch), the brush and the inlet to the vacuum is too far apart making it quite ineffective in cleaning, the suction power drops when the floor tool with extended tube is used.
