Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about BLACK+DECKER HNVC220BCZ01

  • Extremely lightweight and portable design makes it easy to handle
  • Convenient wall-mountable charging station doubles as out-of-the-way storage
  • Translucent, bagless dirt bowl allows you to easily monitor the fill level
  • Effective for quick cleanups, small dry spills, pet hair, and crumbs
  • Washable filter and dirt bowl simplify maintenance and keep it hygienic
  • Affordable price point provides solid overall value

What customers don't like about BLACK+DECKER HNVC220BCZ01

  • Battery drains quickly during continuous heavy usage
  • Extremely long recharge cycle (can take up to half a day to fully charge)
  • Relatively small dust bin capacity requires frequent emptying
  • Power button must be continuously held down manually to keep it running
  • Suction power may drop significantly if the filter is not regularly cleaned

Verdict

The BLACK+DECKER HNVC220BCZ01 Dustbuster is an ultra-lightweight, 1.4-pound cordless handheld vacuum powered by an 8V lithium-ion battery. It features a bagless 13 oz. translucent dirt bowl, an 14.4 l/s airflow capacity, and comes equipped with a built-in crevice tool, an upholstery brush, and a wall-mountable charging base. Its main pros include superb portability for quick cleanups on both hard surfaces and upholstery, easy debris tracking, and highly convenient storage. However, its primary cons are a relatively long battery recharge time of up to 10 hours and short operational runtime typical of compact, low-voltage handheld vacuums.
