Another great tool from Black & Decker.September 6, 2010 Daniel G. Jones Another great tool from Black & Decker. Easy to use and ready when needed. Easy to recharge battery. I even use it to blow water off my car after washing. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH BLACK & DECKER PRODUCTS.
okAugust 29, 2010 Dan S. Hazlett(greenwood sc usa) Works well but has bothersome noise that I hope is not motor going bad .
Works wellAugust 23, 2010 Louis G Roepke(Maryville, TN USA) I read the user reviews of this product and researched on the web before purchasing. I did not want a gasoline-powered blower and was looking for a 24 volt cordless, but did not find one. After I bought this unit, I also bought a second battery, since it only runs about 15 to 20 minutes on a charge, which I had learned in reading the reviews.
It works as I expected, is lightweight and easy to use.
Does a good jobAugust 23, 2010 ss_holmes(Texas, USA) I bought the 18v hard surface sweeper along with its 18v hedger counterpart and have been extremely thrilled with the purchase.
I used to have an electric sweeper, pulling wires everywhere I went, but moved into a newer and larger house and the old sweeper just could not reach all the spots in my yard.
The B&D sweeper is extremely light weight, one hand is all it takes to operate. The packaging came with a 18 hour charger and I got myself a free 1 hour charger from [...]. My advice is to get yourself a 1 hour charger otherwise the unit might stop midway through your task. On a full charge the unit lasts me 15-20 minutes and then starts the painful slow death to loosing power. I really wish the battery held its charge longer. I make do because I have another battery that I keep fully charged.
I also wish the unit had an adjustable low/high blower speed because there are a couple of sections around my house where I wish the unit did not blow that hard! Those are just minor inconveniences though. The unit is powerful enough to blow away yard clippings/leaves but is not powerful enough to move small pebbles/stones.
If you are using the blower for small to medium sized yards then you will not have any problems. My full thumbs up to the unit.
Black & Decker NS118 18-Volt Cordless electric Broom Hard Surface SweeperAugust 22, 2010 sllys37 I love this Black & Decker Cordless Broom. I didn't purchase it for heavy-duty sweeping, just to save a little sweeping with a regular broom. It performs as described, not to be used as a lawn sweeper, but great for the porch and other places that you would use a broom.
