Top Cordless Vacuums

What We Loved

  • Airflow (CFM)
    air flow at the wand was 27 m/s
  • Battery runtime / Charging time
    battery life is up to 55 minutes but in real life on the high setting you'll see around 30 to 35 minutes
  • Build quality & durability
    feels sturdy
  • Cleaning performance on carpet
    picked up 96%
  • Cleaning performance on hard floors
    works well on carpet and hardwood
  • Hair-wrap prevention / anti-tangle tech
    actually it seems to be like surprisingly anti-tangle
  • Replaceable-battery convenience
    you can swap batteries between any tool or vacuum in the Black & Decker ecosystem
  • Suction power (air watts)
    suction at the wand was 22 kilopascal

Just Okay

  • Dust-bin capacity
    this canister is kind of small

Needs Improvement

  • Dust-bin sealing (to prevent dust escape)
    it's not sealed so fine dust is definitely getting back into your room

Top Cordless Vacuum Under $150

What We Loved

  • Airflow (CFM)
    was 27 m/ second
  • Battery runtime / Charging time
    this does have better battery life than the Kenmore
  • Brush-roll agitation strength

  • Build quality & durability
    is actually pretty good it feels pretty solid
  • Cleaning performance on carpet
    picked up 95%
  • Cleaning performance on hard floors
    picked up 100% of the sand we dumped on hardwood
  • Filter replacement cost
    you get one of these for $10 on Amazon
  • Hair-wrap prevention / anti-tangle tech
    it actually is pretty anti-tangle
  • LED headlights brightness / usefulness
    it has l s on it
  • Maneuverability & swivel steering
    it's just a little bit less flexible a little bit less maneuverable
  • Replaceable-battery convenience
    pops out like this is the 20 volt battery
  • Storage footprint & upright-stand stability
    it stands up on its own
  • Suction power (air watts)
    had 22
  • Wall-mounted charging dock
    it charges up while it is sitting on the wall
  • Weight
    is 6.9 lb so it's about a pound heavier

Just Okay

  • Dust-bin capacity
    is about 75 L definitely does not hold as much
  • Stair-cleaning convenience
    frankly is not quite as good on stairs as the Kenmore is

Needs Improvement

  • Dust-bin sealing (to prevent dust escape)
    this is not sealed at all and this totally does not pass the smoke test

  • Value-for-money

  • Weight

Just Okay

  • Dust-bin emptying
    emptying the canister is pretty easy just pop it off you open the lid into the trash there's a washable reusable filter but we found the canister can be a little tricky to get off sometimes
  • Status indicators (battery, bin, filter)
    there's no digital display but it does have these little LED lights which tell you how much battery life you actually have left

Needs Improvement

  • Airflow (CFM)
    its airflow was around 28 meters per second
  • Filtration quality (HEPA rating, multi-stage)
    this filter did not pass
  • Hair-wrap prevention / anti-tangle tech
    this was actually the least anti-tangle vacuum of all four of them
  • Suction power (air watts)
    its suction was about six kilopascals which is actually pretty low
