Which brand to buy
Under $200 these two meet on cordless sticks: the Tineco Pure One S15 Essentials at $169 and the Tineco Pure One S11 at $179 against the Black+Decker POWERSERIES Extreme Pet Cordless Stick Vacuum at $185 and the Powerseries Extreme at $180. Above that, they split. Tineco adds wet-dry hard floor washers and pricier sticks; Black+Decker adds dustbuster handhelds.
The Tinecos bring a dirt sensor Black+Decker lacks. S11 owners say its iLoop sensor idles on clean floors and surges on dirt, so runtime stays closer to the rating, and several report it out-picking a Dyson cordless on dry pet food; complaints are 25-30 minutes of real runtime and clips breaking around a year. The S15 Essentials tests well on carpet but pushes larger debris on hard floors. Black+Decker owners like the Extreme Pet's anti-tangle brush on carpet and the Powerseries Extreme's removable 20V MAX battery, but report brushroll stalls, seized wheels and filter-related suction loss.
Tineco's floor washers are its other draw. Owners of the Tineco Floor One S5 at $350 say dried spills vanish in one pass but warn that the dirty tank must be cleaned after nearly every use and that warranty service has been slow. The Tineco Pure ONE Station 5 at $459 cleans its own brushroll and dirt path, which owners say prevents the smell sticks develop. Choose Tineco for hard floors, sensor-driven sticks or a mop-vacuum. Choose Black+Decker for carpeted stairs, a handheld, or a battery that also runs your drill.

Black+Decker vs Tineco: common questions
Is a Tineco Pure One S11 better than a Black+Decker Powerseries Extreme?▾
Owners give the Tineco Pure One S11 the edge on suction and battery management, thanks to its iLoop sensor. The Black+Decker Powerseries Extreme costs about the same at $180 and its removable battery fits Black+Decker tools, which matters if you already own them.
Does Black+Decker make a wet-dry floor washer like Tineco?▾
No. Black+Decker's vacuums are dry-only, so for vacuuming and mopping hard floors in one pass Tineco is the brand to choose, starting with the iFloor 5 Breeze Complete at $300.
