Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about BLACK+DECKER DVA325JP07-QW

  • Strong suction power that effectively picks up crumbs and daily debris.
  • Excellent at removing pet hair from couches and chairs using the motorized brush.
  • Ergonomic handle makes it comfortable to hold and easy to maneuver.
  • Large, transparent 500ml dust cup that is simple to empty and clean.
  • Washable filters and container add convenience for ongoing maintenance.

What we don't like about BLACK+DECKER DVA325JP07-QW

  • Operates with a very loud motor, producing a high-pitched buzzing or beeping sound.
  • Relatively short battery runtime, lasting around 7 to 15 minutes per full charge.
  • At approximately 1.4 kg, some users find the unit feels heavy for a handheld device.
  • The wall mount design is basic and lacks a premium feel.

Verdict

The BLACK+DECKER DVA325JP07-QW is a cordless handheld vacuum cleaner featuring a 10.8V 2.5Ah (27Wh) lithium-ion battery that delivers a maximum input power of 27W and 21 air watts of suction performance. It is equipped with a bagless 500ml transparent dust cup, a 2-stage cyclonic filtration system, a wide suction opening, an extendable crevice tool, and a specialized motorized turbo pet hair brush with rubber tines for lifting embedded fur. Key advantages include its lightweight 1.41 kg ergonomic design, a consistent 15-minute fade-free runtime, an easy-empty waste system, and an Eco Smart charging technology that prevents overcharging. However, notable drawbacks include a remarkably long 16-hour full recharge time and a loud operating noise level during use.
