Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker CHV1408 DustBuster 14.4V Cordless Cyclonic Hand Vac
Customer Review: Poor design. Awful filter. Old models much better
Summary: 1 Stars
Pros: This unit has very strong suction, extendable nose seems useful.
Cons: I'm trying to replace a CHV9600 who's battery has died. Amazed to find that Black and Decker no longer makes good dust busters. They're all cheap, gimmicky and meant to earn them the most money with devices which need frequent replacement.
The filter in the CHV1408 is a joke. If sucking up dust, it will clog within a few minutes. We used our CHV9600 with the pleated VF100 filter for months without ever having to clean it.
The slider to "clean" the filter is a useless joke. Gimmick with no value.
The battery is not replaceable and B&D doesn't list is as a replaceable part even though they list other internal parts.
The dustbuster is advertised to have "triple filtration". Another gimmick. The last filter can't even be accessed, so if it clogs up, you have to buy a new unit. The first filter doesn't count much as a filter, leaving the junk VF08 filter which clogs very quickly.
Once clogged, suction is understandably non-existent.
And some of the prices listed here are outrageous. Its $40 at Sears. But its not worth it anyway.
Sad that B&D has stopped making decent Dust Busters and is instead trying to gouge consumers. Their strategy seems to be working too. Haven't found a competing handheld vacuum thats decent either.
