The Black and Decker PSV1800 has a lot of things going for it that many other upright cordless vacuums do not. Not only does it have more power than the average cordless vacuum but it also has an affordable price tag when compared to many of the other stick vacuums in its class. There are three reasons however why this little stick vacuum rates so well with consumers and gets high marks at all of the major review sites.
Pivoting Head and Arm – This one feature alone makes the Black and Decker PSV1800 a winner, designed to get into places that most other vacuums can’t this handy little stick vacuum folds to allow to use it under couches and other furniture without having to reach down to the floor to do so. A pivot half way up the handle allows you access under beds, chairs couches and more.
Pivots on the sides of the head offer you the ability to get up close to walls, into corners, and around furniture without having to crawl around on the floor to do so. This is one of the first stick vacuums that have come up with an effective work around to allow you to do all of your vacuum with the vacuum rather than try to use a hose to finish up your cleaning.
The Black and Decker PSV1800 is Incredibly compact - Looking for a vacuum to take with you in your motorhome or that will fit in your tiny apartment? This little stick vacuum folds in half and will fit neatly in a closet, under a counter or table or any other corner that you have available for it. It comes with a charging cradle that it sits in for stability and is small enough that it can be tucked away just about any place.
A three Stage filter ensures the Dirt Stays Where it Belongs - One of the things that vacuums have not always been very good at, especially stick vacuums was trapping the dirt. In many cases dirt ended back up in the air which then means that it ends up back on your carpet. The three stage filter is designed to trap all of the dirt keeping it in the vacuum where it belongs and not back in your house.
Overall the Black and Decker PSV1800 gets 4 stars where ever you look, some people found it a bit unwieldy to use while others did not care for the fact the design did not leave room for a removable cup. Unfortunately these are less design flaws than they are necessities based on what the vacuum is designed to provide which is a highly compact and easy to maneuver stick vacuum for those who need it.
