- Good points:
- Very powerful vacuum - taking apart for cleaning needs practice but good once mastered. It certainly picks up the finest dust as well as larger bits.
- Bad points:
- A longer extension would have been useful. The small extension pops back under a little pressure so not very handy.

- Very easy to you, flexible, with good pick up. Use it all the time and for short bursts is as good as the vacuum cleaner. Highly recommended. Ingenious design gets everywhere!

- Cannot say have noticed any!

Maurice, Great Dunmow Retired
- Good points:
- Excellent little machine - does exactly what we bought it for, i.e. a quick simple to use light weight vacuum cleaner that can get in tight corners.
- Bad points:
- a little noisy, but suction is good so doesn't need to be on for long

Here’s a list of the questions other shoppers have asked owners of the Black & Decker Dustbuster PV1205B
-
is there a way to run this directly from main or car power?
-
probably not

I am the owner on my second B&D Dustbuster. They have both suffered from a dissappointingly unsatisfactory battery life lasting aproximately 6-9 months. I have not yet established whether it is a fault with the battery or the charger or both. I consider this a great shame because the rest of the product is first class.
-
I Have found that if these batteries are left on charge you get the best out of them, if f you do not keep it on charge the battery will degenerate. Either way you have a 12 months warranty so take it back :-))

I'm very pleased with my purchase yesterday. No memtion of how long it should be left on the charger.
-
Can't say - just hope for the best.
