Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker CS100 12-Volt Cordless Electric Broom Hard Surface SweeperCustomer Review: Buyer Beware! Summary: 1 Stars
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY: This is the first review I've ever written for a product, but I felt compelled (or maybe "impelled") in this case. Like everyone else who has ever owned this product for more than one season, it worked okay for the first year. Then in season two, the impeller started vibrating during use, and eventually burst into dozens of pieces. The most annoying part of this is that you cannot replace just the impeller, even though it would be very easy to do. So you have to spend $50 to buy the entire blower assy (everything but the battery charger and tube), all to repair a $75 blower, which has the same inherent defect. No thanks. I cannot believe that Black & Decker has not stopped selling this product and not offered a free replacement blower assy to all who have bought one. Last Black & Decker product I will buy.
Customer Review: Buyer beware - breaking fan blade Summary: 2 Stars
This was a great little blower. It had enough battery power for about 15 min, just the right amount of time to clean out the garage and deck. But...the impeller fan broke after about two years of use for no apparent reason. This seems to be a common problem and the only replacement part is a new blower assembly for ~$50 instead of a $2.50 fan blade.
Customer Review: C Zimmerman Summary: 3 Stars
I have a huge yard so a heavy duty yard electric blower/vac is a must, but they are cumbersome and heavy. I bought this product 27 months ago and LOVE it. Light weight and gets the deck OR large patio blown off before battery goes out. Recharge time is pretty fast so I'd rather wait for it to recharge then lug out the heavy duty blower. Another plus is the long nose which allows you to efficiently direct the debris rather than spread it around. Now the bad news...3 months after the warranty expires the plastic propeller literally blows up without warning. I love the product enough to consider another but am going to shop around first to see if there is an alternative to the plastic propeller without getting too heavy.
Customer Review: Cheap Summary: 1 Stars
I got this for my home. 15 minute battery life ok for blowing off a few sidewalks ... but then the plastic fan/impeller broke (just shattered while in use). No replacement part available so now I have to junk an $80 tool over a $2 plastic part. Dumb.
Customer Review: Cordless Blower Summary: 5 Stars
The product operates and performs exactly as the literature describes. It has good power and a reasonable battery life while in use
