Black+Decker Dustbuster BHHV315J: what works and what doesn't
What works well
- Very inexpensive: often around €48, the bargain pick in the comparison
- Extendable crevice tool: reaches tight car seat gaps without changing attachments
- Light & handy: only 1.1 kg, usable overhead and one-handed
- Bagless + washable: no running costs, container emptied directly
- Large 0.7 L container: rarely this big on a mini handheld vacuum
Points of criticism
- Short runtime: 10 to 16 min, intended for short jobs, not the whole flat
- No pet hair brush: for heavily furred upholstery the motorised attachment is missing
- Only 20 AW: top for light crumbs, weaker for ingrained dirt
