Electrolux EL1000A2 Pronto

Pros: Excellent on hard floors! Great on carpeted stairs! Decent for light carpet work. No cord!

Cons: A tad expensive.

The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this vacuum to anyone who has stairs or lots of hard floors. It's both extremely easy and fun to use.

Review: WHY WE NEEDED A VACUUM We just moved into our first two-story house and needed a vacuum that would solve two issues: 1) We needed a vacuum that would work well on stairs--something that was light enough and that also had enough suction (we ...

Pros: Light, cordless, easy to use and efficient with a very high quality feel

Cons: None yet found.

The Bottom Line: I have never tried a floor sweeper or vacuum I like better - high quality and very user-friendly.

Review: The title says it all. I LOVE this thing. We are the family that has never kept a vacuum running for more than a year. In fact, we have so conclusively proved that we kill them (long-haired dog, messy humans and general NOT vacuum-friendly folks) ...

Pros: Light weight, durable, bagless

Cons: cheaper

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this product to anyone that couldn't lift heavy objects. For someone who wanted a durable vacuum it is an awesome investment!

Review: Let me just start off by saying this is the best Vacuum that my husband and I have ever purchased. This is a very light weight vacuum weighing in at 5.5 pounds. We have pet and of course hair is always a problem with them. With this vacuum has a ...

Pros: Power, ease of use, gets the dirt (and cat litter) up

Cons: On the expensive side

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quality stick vacuum that does what it's supposed to.

Review: I have tried all of the cordless, rechargeable stick vacuums out there (Eureka, Shark, Dirt Devil, etc.) and had to keep returning them--until the Pronto. The problem they all have is they do not hold cat litter. They suck it up, but as soon as you ...

Pros: Extremely lightweight and maneuverable, long lasting charge, great suction for a stickvac, and visually appealing!

Cons: Roller brush needs cleaning often, NOT meant for large objects, and a bit expensive

The Bottom Line: At least buy it and try it. If you don't like, 99% of stores will let you return...but if you use it as intended to be used, you'll love it!!!

Review: I have never been a fan of hardwood floors only because of the need for frequent sweeping, but since we recently purchased a new house with most of the first floor being hardwood...I set out in search of the "perfect" sweeper. While strolling ...

Pros: Light, powerful, easy to use, awesome maneuverability, great battery life, durable, ready when you are!

Cons: Not recommended for carpets.... that's the only negative!

The Bottom Line: If you have hardwood, linoleum or tile floors this stickvac is a Godsend.

Review: Came across this little baby at Sears trying to find out how to spend a $75 gift certificate I got as a prize. Was going to get a lawn edger. I am SO glad I went with this! We have a Hoover Wind Tunnel as our main vacuum. It is an effective ...

Pros: lightweight, maneuverable, works great

Cons: Somewhat pricey, takes up an outlet for the charger

The Bottom Line: If you have hard floors, this is an excellent vacuum.

Review: We have a 6-month old baby and 3 cats at home, and hardwood floors or linoleum in all the living areas of the house. Even though we only have a one-story house, dragging the big vacuum out all the time was a huge hassle, but the dust bunnies that ...

Pros: Easy to put together. Good suction. Lightweight. Looks good. Ergonomically designed. Removable handheld unit.

Cons: If you choose to mount the charging stand on the wall it requires some fumbling.

The Bottom Line: Great looking, lightweight machine with good suction. Well balanced and easy to use. Higher cost justifies the fact that is has the detachable handheld unit.

Review: I just bought my Pronto and I am loving it. It was a snap (literally) to put together and is easy to set in and out of the charging stand. No fumbling. The handheld unit snaps on and off without a struggle. The handle tilts *all the way down* to get ...

Pros: Quiet, powerful and fun to use.

Cons: The cloth filter in the collector cup that stuff sticks to.

The Bottom Line: Definitely recommend: Cordless, powerful yet quiet, glides across the floor, swivel head, stylish looks.

Review: I bought this vacuum for my husband... sort of. I always cut my husband's hair at home. His job, to vacuum up the hair afterward. We previously had a Bissell electric broom, and every time my husband had to vacuum up the hair, I'd have to listen to ...

Pros: Light weight, cool looks and very efficient for small spaces

Cons: Not very good on carpet but great on hard surfaces

The Bottom Line: Nice little unit that is always ready in a snap to clean up little messes or for a quick vacuum before company comes over.Recommended for ease of use.

Review: Just purchased this vacuum today based on a number of reviews and recommendations on different web sites. I have to say that so far it has been awesome, especially on hard surfaces like ceramic tile or hardwood. I vacuumed my steps and couldn't ...
