Electrolux Ergorapido

Electrolux Ergorapido is a 2 in 1 stick vacuum that is interchangeable into a portable hand held vac at the same time. Since it comes with a battery there is no need to worry about wires and thanks to the hand held "converting" feature, if you have cars or vehicles filled with dust then by simply buying the Ergorapido upright you also "get" a hand-held that can be used on those places as well.

Below are some of the main hardware details...

(ZB2813 Model)

*. Just by pushing a button you can convert it into a lightweight hand-held vacuum.

*. Cyclonic vacuum suctions.

*. Comes with a swivel head for smoother rotations (very useful for edge cleaning and "navigating" around too).

*. Handle has a soft-grip section.

*. Rechargeable Ni-MH battery and the whole unit uses about 9.6 Volts.

*. Bagless (comes with a dust cup).

*. Comes with a standing charging unit (meaning you'll have to put it into an upright position to make it start the charging process).

*. A crevice tool is embedded to the nozzle.

*. The cleaning head is not the most widest but for its size and caliber this is pretty much the standard anyway.

*. Comes with double layer filtration.

*. It does not have that many features but still the price is not that cheap which could be a drawback.

Some User Feedback

 

In general one of the advantages of getting a lightweight vac such as the Ergorapido is the ease of use (because of the low weight mainly) and even a child can operate this thing. But the apparent drawback is the battery life. Which is not bad (depends on the usage) but don't hope to cover the whole house once fully charged.

The vacuum suction is also good and has the ability to suck in smaller things such as food spills, etc. The noise is also quite moderate which should be expected when considering the small motor. Takes very little space while storing too. If you're doing frequent house cleaning then make sure to left in the charging mood otherwise you'll have to wait several hours until it get re-charged. 

So if you're willing to pay the higher price, the electrolux ergorapido ZB2813 is capable of doing normal cleaning but cannot be recommended for heavy house cleaning jobs.
