Introduction to Electrolux Ergorapido 2-in-1 Vacuum Cleaners - EL1014, EL1012
This lightweight but powerful, cordless 2-in-1 vacuum cleaner is a must have for any household. With a click of a button it goes from a stick vacuum to a handheld. The Ergorapido has a powerful 9.6 or 12 volt motor (depending on the model) that offers more suction power to quickly clean up messes on bare floors, counter tops, furniture, and other hard to reach places. Packaged with a charger stand, it is always neatly stored and fully charged ready for when you need it.
Features of Electrolux Ergorapido 2-in-1 Vacuum Cleaners - EL1014, EL1012
2 Vacuums in 1: combination stick vacuum and handheld vacuum easily fulfills all your quick cleaning needs with a powerful 9.6 or 12 volt motor
Versatile: 2 vacuums plus cleaning attachments and cordless convenience allows easy cleaning in, under, and around anything
Powerhead: the motorized brush roll on the Ergorapdio's powerhead is designed to clean bare floors and area rugs and it swivels 180 degrees to easily clean around corners and furniture
Accessory Tools: the Ergorapido not only has the built-in handheld vacuum, but also comes with a crevice nozzle and dust brush cleaning attachments that store neatly in the charger stand
Finger-tip Controls: the stick vacuum has on/off with two speeds, high or low, and the handheld has on/off.
Cyclonic Dust Cup: more powerful cyclonic suction technology maintains suction power longer with an easier to clean filter system
2 Filters: the ErgoRapido has a pre-filter for large particles and a secondary filter for fine particles
No-Touch Dust Empty: with two ways to empty the dust cup (vacuum out the dust cup or use the release buttons, remove the filters and empty into a waste basket) you'll never have to touch the dirt
Charger Stand: provides a neat place to store the vacuum while not in use and keeps it charged so it is always ready to clean – initially full charge requires 24 hours, to fully recharge if battery power is all used up takes 15-20 hours
Easy Assembly: the vacuum easily snaps together with only 1 screw required to secure the handle
Easy Maintenance: a quick cleaning of the filters is recommend every 3rd cleaning or when the suction power seems less powerful (the filter has a built in cleaning mechanism that shakes dust off the filter), a thorough washing of the filters and dust container is recommended every 5th cleaning

Expert Review:

Pluses:
More powerful then the Electrolux Pronto
Lightweight and easy to use
Cordless convenience – no area restriction
Good value - two vacuums for the price of one
Versatile with multiple uses and abilities
The 12 volt motor provides strong suction power for a stick or handheld vacuum
Bagless with washable filters
Included charger stand provides neat storage and keeps the vacuum charged so it is always ready to use (the stand can also be mounted on a wall to conserve floor space)
Minuses:
Not a sealed HEPA filtration system
Does not work well on thick carpeting.
The vacuum does not stand on its own and needs to be placed in its stand.
Although the dust bin is extremely easy to clean out, it is small and needs to be emptied frequently
Since it is battery operated its power supply has a time limit - approx 10-15 minutes
Needs 15-20 hours to fully recharge
Summary:
With a more powerful 12 volt motor, the gray Ergorapido 1012A is a step above the 9.6 volt Electrolux Pronto in cleaning ability. The orange Ergorapido 1014A is the replacement for the 9.6 volt pronto. Either Ergorapido would make a great little vacuum cleaners for a small apartment with mostly bare floors, or the perfect quick pick-up vacuum cleaner for a household. The following is the summary of my testing experience of the Ergorapido 1012A. "It was lightweight and easily carried up stairs to my 3rd floor apartment. The 180 degree swivel head made it quick and easy to maneuver through my apartment as it seamlessly glided across the hardwood floors picking up the dust and debris that lurked in the corners and under the furniture. It handled low-pile area rugs impressively maintaining suction power and mobility. When it came to the living room, being able to push a button and instantly have a handheld vacuum to clean the couches was very convenient. The charger stand requires only a small amount of space and provides a neat place to store the vacuum when not in use. The only problems I could foresee relate to large household use; the dirt cup is small and fills up fast and if used for a long time without being re-charged it will lose power reducing its efficiency." Overall I give it two thumbs up.
