TOWSON, Md., April 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BLACK+DECKER announces the 40th anniversary of the iconic dustbuster® hand vacuum and celebrates the milestone with the launch of the dustbuster® Advanced Clean+™ Hand Vacuum. Four times more powerful than the current leading hand vacuum from BLACK+DECKER, the dustbuster® Advanced Clean+ Hand Vacuum also incorporates an extra-long, extendable crevice tool that makes it easy to get into hard-to-reach spaces.
This year, BLACK+DECKER is celebrating the anniversary of the dustbuster® with the launch of the dustbuster® Advanced Clean+ Hand Vacuum. A primary feature of the new dustbuster® is its extra-long crevice tool that gets into tight, hard-to-reach spaces around the home. Its powerful motor sucks up messes with ease and its lithium ion battery is long-lasting and holds a charge for up to six months when it's not in-use. The dustbuster® Advanced Clean+ Hand Vacuum also has an extra-large dust bin which allows it to run efficiently for long periods of time without being emptied. When it's full, the new dustbuster® has a one-touch button that opens the bin to allow for easy emptying directly into the trash, helping to keep hands clean.
Ana Garcia, Vice President of Product Marketing for BLACK+DECKER said, "Families and home cleaning has changed, so the dustbuster® has changed. Busier than ever, we all need better solutions for quick cleaning, in the home or on-the-go. The new dustbuster® is within reach for fast and powerful cleaning, helping save time and effort."
Designed around innovations that were used in the first explorations to space, the original dustbuster® hand vacuum debuted in 1979. Revolutionary for its time, the dustbuster® was one of the first battery-powered home cleaning products on the market. Over the course of its first 10 years, the popularity of the cordless hand vacuum category – which was brand new at the time – and the dustbuster®, grew to icon-status marked by its prominent feature in the 1989 film, Back to The Future Part II. Not only featured in pop culture, but it was a mainstay on wedding registries and in households across the US. Since 1995, the dustbuster® has held a place in the National Museum of American History, part of the Smithsonian Institution.
The new dustbuster® Advanced Clean+ Hand Vacuum and other dustbuster® hand vacuums can be purchased to suit a wide variety of needs. Existing dustbuster® products are available in versions designed for pet messes that can pick up stubborn pet hair, and wet/dry versions, designed to pick up liquid and dry debris. The new dustbuster® Advanced Clean+ Hand Vacuum and other dustbuster® hand vacuums are widely available now, ranging in price from $29 MSRP for basic models to $129 MSRP for advanced models with many features.
