Our Verdict
Black+Decker 16V MAX dustbuster Cordless Hand Vacuum
Shark WANDVAC
The Black+Decker 16V MAX dustbuster Cordless Hand Vacuum and the Shark WANDVAC have different strengths. The Black+Decker is better on bare floors, has a much larger dirt compartment, and has a longer continuous runtime. Conversely, the Shark does a better job capturing fine allergens, has virtually no recurring costs, is smaller and lighter, and performs better on low-pile carpets. It also recharges much faster.
