Eureka NES100
Score: 65/100
Black+Decker PowerSeries 16V Max
Score: 70/100Rankings
The BLACK+DECKER POWERSERIES BHFEA420J provides up to 40 minutes of runtime, AUTOSENSE suction adjustment, LED illumination, and a self-standing design in a compact form. Its single-speed operation and weight make prolonged handheld use less comfortable. It fits well for apartments needing a convertible stick-to-handheld vacuum with auto-suction.
The Eureka NES100 is a feather-light corded stick vacuum with a 3-in-1 convertible design and self-standing storage, delivering continuous suction for quick clean-ups. Its limitations include modest motor power for thick carpets and a budget-feel plastic construction. Ideal for small apartments, stairs and car interiors where portability and plug-in convenience matter.

Products in the top-left offer the best value (high score, low price).
Professional reviewers commend the NES100 for its feather-light weight, reliable corded suction, and versatile 3-in-1 design, noting it handles crumbs, pet hair, and hard-floor debris admirably. However, they caution that its 240-248 W motor lacks the power needed for deep carpet cleaning, and the plastic construction gives it a budget feel, making it best suited for spot cleaning rather than heavy daily use.
Everyday users consistently praise the vacuum's portability, instant plug-in readiness, and ease of storage, finding it ideal for quick clean-ups in cars, stairs, and small apartments.
“"surprising" 240 W power for a budget model (above typical 150 W)”
“"no way" for daily carpets”
“Reliable for carpets/hard floors/tiles without recharging”
Professional reviewers highlight the vacuum's solid construction, balanced feel, and premium-grade features such as AUTOSENSE, LED floor lights and an anti-tangle brush, noting that it delivers strong suction and good performance on both carpet and hard floors, though runtime drops on carpet and the unit feels heavy for prolonged handheld use.
Everyday users generally praise the strong suction, LED illumination, and the convenience of the handheld conversion, especially for pet hair and quick spot cleaning, while recurring concerns focus on the weight, shorter carpet runtime and the single-speed limitation.
