Electrolux Ergorapido EL1012A 2-in-1 Stick/ Hand Vacuum Cleaner

My husband tried to warn me but after reading all the great reviews & remembering the Electrolux cannister my mum used daily for over 15 years I was sure this model would be up to the task. Initially I was lured by the idea of being able to zip around without the hassle of cords & wall plug changes but you know the old adage - if it sounds to good to be true .... Bottom line? Extremely poor suction. It had trouble picking up a couple of almond slices off the kitchen floor or anything for that matter that did not resemble a piece of fluff or a dust bunny. I give it a star for styling - it's a nice looking vacuum & another star for the ease of use. Just a shame it didn't deliver on performance.

I bought this to use on our hardwood floors and it works fine, but the biggest unseen benefit is that my 3 year old loves it. He unclicks the hand vac and cleans up his own mess! He asks if there is anything he can vacuum for me. Love it. I gave it 4 stars out of 5 only because it is not as powerful as a plug-in vacuum.

I bought this for my son's dorm room and was impressed from the first use. I trusted the previous reviewers and was not dissapointed. This unit has great sucion power and a sleek, compact look. It takes up little space, was easy to set up and ready to vacuum right out of the box. I like it so much, I bought one for my home.

I love this Vacuum! We have gone through several in the last year and just never found one with enough power to do the job. Well this one did it!! It is very comfortable to use and clean and has great suction power. I love the little vacuum extenders it has to get into tight spots or clean delicate surfaces. I would definitely recommend this to a friend. I am actually getting one for my mother.
