My Electrolux Ergorapido Review
Tags: Electrolux Ergorapido
Because I have 4 mess-makin’ kids the convenience that the Electrolux Ergorapido really appealed to me.
While I do systematically vacuum my carpet fully at least once a week, I also need a unit that’s light and easy to work with that can clean up the spontaneous spills that are all too common in my home. If you’ve got the same problem I do then you’ll probably fall in love with the Ergorapido like I have.
The first thing that I liked about it was it was cordless. Another cool feature is the built-in hand held vacuum, which officially would make this stick vacuum a “2-in-1″. For around a hundred bucks you’re getting the handheld along with the stick unit so it’s really not a bad price compared to other vacuums.
Here’s a quick video showing how the Electrolux Ergorapido actually works:
What Do Other People Think About the Electrolux Ergorapido?
Because this is a top-selling product there’s no shortage of opinions/reviews about it.
On Amazon it has an overall score of 4/5 Stars. Here’s some of the reviews (both positive and negative).
“Bottom line? My house (and my car) has stayed clean and almost free of DOG Hairs ever since I bought this thing! .. and my back thanks me for it!
A Tip!
The best tool I’ve found to remove strings, long hair and threads that gets wrapped around the rollers and brush is a little $2.00 SEAM RIPPER! And oh yes, the little rollers sometimes get jammed up, they can be popped out with a little screw driver for cleaning.”Tony Thiel @ Amazon
“PROS: Two in one vac, love how you can go from cleaning floors to using the hand vac in seconds. Has enough suction to pick up crumbs in the kitchen or dirt tracked in from outside by the exterior doors. It’s light and easy to maneuver to get underneath tables and chairs. The charging station has a blue backlight when it’s docked which makes for a convenient night light. I also like the option of emptying it by using a conventional vacuum to suck the dirt out a front access hole.
CONS: Like any bagless vacuum, when you try to dump clean the container, you get a dust cloud. That’s why I like the option of vacuuming out the dirt. Also, the rotating brush seems to kick dirt around half the time. Fortunately, the brush is removalable for cleaning. I just leave it out all the time. More suction would be nice as always for a vacuum, but it’s adequate for a stick/handheld vac.
Overall, I would recommend this vacuum for light, everyday cleaning.”

“I bought this stick vac 1 year ago to use on the wood floors in my kitchen. At first it picked up really well, but after several months of use the pick up power was not as it should be. I wouldn’t buy another one, even though I do hava an Elextrolux vacuum cleaner for the rest of the house. The warranty has expired of course.”
