Merry ChrisMess – BLACK+DECKER Stick Vac Giveaway
Hi friends!! With the hustle and bustle of the holidays, and all the extra people, pets & stuff coming and going, that can mean a lot of extra messes for the designated cleaners in the house, and most of the time, that is US. I think having the right tool for the job can make all the difference, and the new BLACK+DECKER cordless stick vac has impressed the heck out of me! I know I can’t be the only person out there that loves to vacuum. If you do too, you’ll love today’s post. And if you don’t… I think you’ll still love today’s post because this is really a versatile, wonderful vacuum, and it might make you like doing this chore a little more!
Please make sure to read to the end so you can enter to win yourself a BLACK+DECKER cordless stick vac, because every home has messes, and the easier they are to clean up, the better… right?
Okay, so I’ve been blogging a long time, and I don’t know if you notice or not, but I don’t do a ton of sponsored posts. I have to really, realllly like something to talk to you guys about it. I say “no”. A lot. In fact, I said no to this… until I heard vacuum. Them my ears perked up. The Little Cottage could use a vacuum, so I checked it out and this one sounded perfect. Plus, I love to vacuum. I always have and there are a ton of different versions of vacuums for Comparison out there right now. I’m an instant gratification kinda girl, and I love seeing clean floors appear as I go. It’s a little bit magic. Sucky-cleany magic. In fact, I opened it up and then shared it right away on Facebook LIVE because I was so excited about it.
I’ll totally understand if you don’t want to hear my thoughts on the vacuum, just Click HERE and get the skinny directly from BLACK+DECKER.
If you do want to hear my thoughts, here you go:
- It’s Lightweight
- Handles great
- Has a pivoting head
- Has dual power, with a button right on the handle
- You can conserve power usage by turning off the spinning brush feature, located right at your fingertips, in the handle (great for smooth surfaces like wood, tile and laminate)
- It’s a 2-in-1 – Stick Vac AND a Handheld all in one
- The handheld features a telescoping nozzle and comes with a brush attachment
- It was faster & easier (while still efficient) to clean my entire upstairs than anything I’ve ever used
- I went from hardwood floors to carpet and back, effortlessly
- It’s CORDLESS
- (which I was spoiled by in a about a nano second!)
It’s brilliant that it’s got the vacuum and the hand held, in one.
I used the integrated telescoping nozzle to clean the skinny spot under my fridge that a regular vacuum can’t reach. Boom. Done.
And it was SO nice to do my stairs without feeling like I was going to trip myself and die. I mean, who would vacuum then?
The “in handle” power, tap again for boost and brush buttons.
And the Lithium Ion battery life monitor.
It’s just a really well thought out device!! I was impressed with so many features, like the push button release of the brush, for cleaning… without having to sit on the floor with it upside down. It’s the little things that make me happy.
Okay I’ll stop… Now, for the giveaway!

It would be so much easier to use this on our floors. Our grandbabies drop a few crumbs everywhere they go!
Justine says
I would use this vacuum everyday on my whole house! With two kids, it’s a daily struggle to keep our home clean, and this would make my OCD dreams come true!
Colleen H says
I have a Dyson Allergy & Animal that I LOVE but this little guy would be a great addition, especially during the holiday season for those little messes or times I don’t want to drag out the big Dyson. So, I hope to win one!
Brigette piccolo says

Shannon. I had my mother’s old vacuum and then my sisters. I’ve never had a new vacuum before and Im especially loving the little guy. Keep on cleaning girl! Does it work good on the cat hair?
Shannon at Fox Hollow Cottage says
Well extra good luck to you – I have not tried it downstairs yet, and the kitties don’t venture upstairs much, so I’m not sure. But it DID pick up all my crazy long hair. lol
Sara says
I would use this for everything, it looks great!
Bethany P says
I’m most intrigued by the stairs function. Vacuuming the stars is my least favorite cleaning task bc of the cord and a bulky vacuum. But this would make vacuuming the stars a dream! That’s what I’d especially use it for!
Ali says
I will definitely use this after the big family party at our house!
Jenny says
I would so love to use this Black & Decker versatile vacuum to pick up all the fur my pug sheds on a daily basis !
Jenny says
I would so love to use this to pick up all the pug hair my dog leaves all over our floors and then could pop out the vac part to clean the fur off our upholstery as well!
Linda Cole says
I would definitely use this! My laundry area is cramped and hard to clean. This would reach all the nooks and crannies easily. Would love to have this!
Sophia c says
I would use it to pick up all the glitter. 😉
Rachel says
I need a new vacuum and this one would be perfect. It would work like a charm sucking up the pine needles, cookie and chip crumbs, and all the other gazillion things that end up on our floor. Thanks for the helpful review! Merry Christmas!
Sarah Eaton says
I would love an opportunity to own this vacuum. I own my own salon and am constantly sweeping and maintaining the space. Clients would see how well this works also and surely inquire about it. When I love a product or brand, I shout it from the rooftop, I share that love with everyone I know. As a business owner, I appreciate brand loyalty and word of mouth referrals. I hope I get a chance to try this vacuum out! It really looks like an awesome product. Thank you.
