This is a very good vacum and does what it is bragged up to do. Very pleased
 Black & Decker CHV1568 September 2, 2010

This vacuum is as good as hand held vacuums get for under $75.00. My only concerns are the battery longevity and is Amazon a registered Black & Decker dealer that will process warranty claims. I read feedback on this unit from a few different sources and These people all had the same problems. They buy this to do big jobs with it and it doesn't work out for them very well. I use it for seconds at a time and this vacuum is the best one I have ever owned.
Best I've had so far August 30, 2010

Well i've owned quite a few hand Vac's in my time. Thus far this is the best one I've owned.
Good points
- Quietest one I've ever owned. Doesn't bother my ears at all and I'm whiny about noise
- Strong suction so far, not surprising with the bigger batteries
- Very easy to dump the holder. One button and its dumped. Don't have to remove anything else to get it emptied. Previous ones always required removing the end and then pulling some other thing out and cleaning this and that.
- Battery pack appears replaceable, so when the battery eventually is garbage on this I'll actually be able to replace it.
Bad Points
- Its a little on the heavy side with the bigger battery pack.
- The on/off switch is a little tough to turn on. My little one really loves to use the hand vac's but this one she can't turn on by herself since the switch is so tough to move.
 Don't Buy This Dustbuster August 25, 2010
Richard B. Triplett (Des Moines, IA United States)
Don't buy this dustbuster. Please read all these reviews and take them into consideration prior to making a purchase. I didn't read them and now regret not doing so. I have many of the same issues with this product that everyone else has. The crevice tool is totally worthless because there is not way to lock it in the out position. The filter stops up frequently. It does come with a washable paper/cloth filter and it needs to be cleaned after each use. Don't believe the literature that says the VF100 or VF100H filter will fit this dustbuster. This literature is misleading. Even on the Black and Decker web page the comment on the the VF100 is for ALL cyclonic dustbusters which is what this one is. They should say the VF100 is for ALL cyclonic dustbusters EXCEPT the CHV1568. Since retailers don't carry filters for any model of dustbuster they sell, I had to purchase filters on the internet. I took, as truth, these filters would fit my vaccum. Now I have filters that are totally worthless to me because they won't fit. I finally found a phone number to Black and Decker and called them and was told at no place do they advertise that these filters work on the CHV1568. When I convinced the woman on the line to look at their web page she saw what I was talking about. It is misleading and false advertisement. If you purchase this product, order a number of replacement filters so you can change them frequently when you are using it. Then wash all of them and let them dry prior to using them again. Once that filter starts stopping up, the suction power diminishes considerably. I would recommend purchasing an additional 4 filters to have on hand and get use to changing them frequently if you insist on purchasing the CHV1568. Good luck.
 Shame on B&D for still using NiCd batteries! May 23, 2010

Just got this thing today but just found out that it uses archaic NiCd batteries, the technology you may remember from crappy cordless phones and toothbrushes that after a few months of use completely lose the ability to hold a charge. No wonder the unit is so freakin' heavy. I assume that in just a few months it will no longer perform the way it does today. It also scares me that there are so many posts about the filter getting clogged, even though B&D provides a nifty filter cleaning lever on the side. Just a non-functional gimmick, I suppose. You know, NiCd batteries have been outlawed in Europe for about 10 years because they are especially toxic when dumped in a landfill. My beef with NiCd is mostly that they are much more poorly behaved than the lithium-ion batteries that are in modern laptops and ipods and whatnot -- they have annoying memory effects, lousy power density, and unimpressive lifetime when cycled. Maybe I should have spent another $150 and got the Dyson...
