Advantages: Reliable, Trustworthy and High performance Disadvantages: Doesn't vacum plaster dust well
I was delighted when my husband bought the Black and Decker PV1205B Dust buster for my birthday. Whilst the price might seem high anything with lower voltage is a waste of time and money. Lower voltage dust busters just don't work you need something with a bit of power, one that performs well and does the job you need it to do. The Black and Decker PV1205B Dust buster is powerful, practical and efficient basically you cannot go far wrong in purchasing this and I would recommend it to anyone. My dust buster has always been reliable and it has never let me down yet. It makes the perfect gift for any occasion and will last for years.
I have a 3 year old child and I cannot tell you enough how helpful this Dust buster has been with my child. You know children, they make a mess don't they? Then you have to clean it up, sometimes it feels ...
Advantages: Safe, Low Maintenance Disadvantages: No good for Lumber Jacks
This is quite a unique piece of kit. Ideal for the gardener who has small trees or bushes in the garden and likes to prune off branches.
In other words its for a gardener who does not see need to buy a petrol driven chain saw and have all the maintance problems that come with it. Such as mixing oil and petrol to the correct mixture. And when you have finished useing petrol driven chain saws they need draining off, otherwise they can be a hazard, and you allways have the smell of petrol in the shed or garage. So being electric its a lot safer.
I decided to obtain the Alligator as I had a number of overgrown and quiet wild Triffid like bushes that I needed to get rid of. I just wish I had known how quick and efficient it was, as I have become very popular with other members of my extended family, now they all want to borrow it ...
Advantages: Easy to use, empty and maintain - does what it says, and does it well. Disadvantages: I've not found any yet
Black & Decker 1205B 12V Pivot Vac.
£59.77 from Argos
A small cordless vacuum cleaner.
It lives in its charger/base, which can be screwed to the wall, but is small enough just to sit on the worktop (unlike other cordless vacs, it stands on its end, so takes up very little space). The base needs to be near a 13A socket, but it doesn't need to be plugged in all the time, as a full charge gives plenty of suck-time (I have not timed it).
The instructions (as is Black & Decker norm) are detailed, easy to understand, and helpful.
The rotating nozzle may seem like a gimmick, but it makes the device very good at vacuuming on high surfaces (e.g. cupboard tops) and low inaccesable spots. There are two speeds, but usually the lower one is fine. The spout is telescopic, and there is a little brush that can be clipped into the end ...
