Our Verdict

Black+Decker 16V MAX dustbuster Cordless Hand Vacuum

Shark UltraCyclone Pet Pro+ [CH951, CH964AMZ]

The Shark UltraCyclone Pet Pro+ is better than the Black+Decker 16V MAX dustbuster Cordless Hand Vacuum. The Shark has fewer parts that need regular cleaning, takes less time to recharge while offering a similar overall battery life, comes with a turbo brush attachment, and is significantly more effective in clearing debris on low- and high-pile carpets. Meanwhile, the Black+Decker incurs lower recurring costs, has a larger dustbin, and delivers better performance on hard surfaces.
