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!

You can charge it standing up complete or pop the handheld out for charging.

Over 10 years ago we got suckerd into the whole Kirby vacuum craze and tbh, it does not work well now at all I’m talking vacuuming over a FEATHER over and over just to pick it up! We spent thousands on it 🙁 we need a new one so bad and we have only carpet in the bedrooms so I love that I could use this on both carpet and hard floors and I LOVE the detachable handheld OMG I can’t tell you how many times I said I wished I had one around!
Shannon at Fox Hollow Cottage says
I’m so sorry! I grew up with one and they are so heavy too. You would love this for sure. Good luck!

This is an OCD girls dream come true! ? This would make daily cleaning routines so much easier especially before jetting off to 12 hour shifts at the hospital. Fingers crossed and Happy Holiday ?

Jill says
I would love to give this to my sister-in-law as they lost their home to a fire two years ago and are still working on their new home which is a used mobile home. Their funds are very tight and I know how much she appreciates a clean home. She would love this! Thank you for the opportunity to enter this giveaway. Merry Christmas!!

Wow! If I won I would have lots of uses for this awesome Vacuum! I have two kids who love to make messes whether they are eating crackers or we are making crafts where we are having to cut up paper and it gets all over the floor. Our family also has one dog and five cats so between spilled dog and cat food pieces on the food to shedded hair, we would put this vacuum to good use! Thank you for the chance!
Brenda Haines says
I would use it to clean up before AND after Christmas dinner, This is the first year in 12 year that we are having the whole family come to our house. I need it CLEAN!
Happy Holidays!

Denise Edenfield says
H my gosh! I love it? Cordless! That’s the only thing that makes vacuuming a drag! I’d be running around the house just LOOKING for gingerbread men crumbs! This would make swift work of cleaning up after the gift extravaganza! Oh my…. I may have just met my new best friend! Maybe black n decker will send me one for Christmas…..
Amy says
Looks and sounds like a great product!
Would love to win one!
Jane@Cottage at the Crossroads says
Shannon, I’m so glad you did a review of this vacuum. I’m in the market for a cordless but I don’t want to give an arm and a leg for one! This looks exactly like what I need-to vacuum up dog hairs daily! I didn’t even know that Black and Decker even made a cordless vacuum! Thanks for the chance to win one!

Sounds great, and it’s purple- it’s fate, I tell ya! 😀 I think it would be just the thing for sucking up all that flocking that escapes its intended purpose.
Mary Beth says
I would use it to clean the needles that are falling from my tree and the corners in the kitchen….and under the china cabinet….and…everywhere!
Brenda Galiher says
I watch my grandson.. and after he eats I have to sweep around his high chair.. this would be so handy for this GiGi!!
nell says
This would make clean up a breeze. I would use it to clean up my house that has carpet, wood floors and tile. I wouldn’t need 3 different tools to clean them. Yippee.
