BLACK+DECKER BV6000 3-in-1 Blower Vac review

A 3-in-1 corded blower, vacuum and mulcher at 400 CFM and 8.1 lb, with disposable bags and a metal fan, for $79.

All-in-one

The BV6000 blows at 400 CFM, then flips to vacuum and mulch into disposable bags. At $79, it matches the WORX WG509 on price with a higher CFM figure.

Cost over time

Disposable bags are convenient, but you keep buying them. WORX uses a reusable bag.

Protection

Wear eye and hearing protection, and keep the air stream away from people and pets. Noise figures on listings do not always say whether they are sound power or sound pressure.

Prices quoted in this text are dated readings and can differ from the live price in the buy box.

What this machine usually gets asked

Why does a metal fan matter?

Black+Decker says it prevents clogging when mulching. A plastic fan is more likely to be damaged by twigs.

What noise level does it make?

The table says 68 dB, without saying what that figure measures, so it cannot be compared directly with other blowers.

Our score

7.6/ 10

A strong 3-in-1 for the money, with a real metal fan.
