Black & Decker Cylinder Customer Review(s):
Summary: Basic review Rating: 5 (out of 5) Comment: I just received my vacuum cleaner today - B&D CV1400, and I already vacuumed my 1,000 square apartment. I am very pleased with my purchase so far (bought it for $112 which included shipping). B&D did a great job designing this vacuum, as it is very functional - several sturdy attachments, and filter and canister which are very easy to clean, take off and put on. Btw the 2 additional filters are washable - that is what it says on the box, I have not tried it. Also, the vc comes with a 2-year warranty. After vacuuming the apartment the vc did get hot, which to me is perfectly normal, as I put it on the high setting (my apt. is carpeted). I totally love the attachments, the hose and the telescopic handle(which is metal!!!) and I assure you that they will not come off as there are metal balls that hold them in place. I have read so many reviews of other vcs, where people would complain that the hose would come off when pulling the vc around the house. That did not happen to me! The hose clicks into the vacuum and does not come off. The turbo beater spins like crazy and takes all hairs off the carpet (I have long hair). The smaller attachment, which is both for carpet and hard floor, also did a great job. The speed settings do make a difference and you can really see it on hard floors. All the attachments are very maneuverable, which makes it easy to pick little things around and under furniture (that is why I wanted a canister vacuum and the first place). The cord might be a little short for people with big houses, but they probably would not be looking for this vacuum anyway. I do not have a problem with that because my apartment is small. The vc is not noisy and it is easy to carry around when you have carpet like me, on which the wheels do not work as well.
The negative thing that I noticed was that the vacuum cleaner is actually 1300W, not 1400W as it says on the pictures on the box and on amazon. The label on the vc itself does say that it is a model number CV1400, but it is 1300W. But again, I am happy as long as it keeps working as good as it does now and does not break.
That is it from me. I just wanted to leave some information about this vacuum, since I could not find any when I was researching it. .........................................................................................................................................................................
