Useless, even for small spils
We live in a carpeted apartment, and we bought this vacuum because spills are inevitable, even if you’re careful. Therefore, the idea of having a cordless wet/dry vacuum cleaner was quite appealing, as you could in principle vaccum spills at once. However, the B&D Wet/Dry DustBuster proved to be quite useless for this purpose. The dust/water container fills up quite rapidly, becoming full with about 2 fl. oz. of liquid. When the container fills up with water (or wine, or whatever nasty stuff you’re vacuuming), the liquid passes through the sponge filter, literally hitting the fan. The outcome: the nasty stuff you’re vacuuming sprays in a thin mist all over the place (an you).
Pros: portable, powerful, cordless.
Cons: small dust/liquid container; bad design allows for overfilled liquids to be sprayed.
Botton line: ok for small dust jobs; worse than useless for spills larger than 2 oz.
Update (2/6/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

great wet/dry vac–very powerful and handy
I like this wet / dry vac because of the size, I have a bird and dog and a cat and this Dustbuster in constant use - the size is perfect and it is powerful. The combination of its location, collect them and the dirt is quickly also helpful. Cleanup and disposal of dirt and liquid is very easy to do, just snap-off filter and the landfill over the next trash receptical. I like the power of concentration that are good for 20 minutes or so - a lot of time before a recharge is required. The 7.2 Volt Wet / Dry DustBuster is proving to be a very good machine.

I’m not using it for big jobs, I have a 2 1/2 year old… and I use it for the occaisonal spill & cleanup and for that purpose alone it’s well worth the price I paid.
