We recieved this vacuum for Christmas from my mom who purchased it because we have a lot of stairs and I am constantly wrestling a large vacuum to get all the dog hair off of them.  This vacuum doesn't really excell on stairs or long carpet but I love it anyway.  We have quite a bit of Pergo flooring... read full review »

This machine just doesn't perform. It doesn't have the power on low carpet or hard floor with little exception. It clogs with hair around the roller before you have time to accomplish anything . Emptying the dirt container isn't pleasant and seems impossible to do without gettting dust up at your face....

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 tried using our full-size vacuum and it was a laughable effort).

2) We had quite a bit more vinyl, hardwood, and tile in the new house, and even though our old vacuum has a "hard floor" setting, it just didn't cut it.

CONDITIONS FOR PURCHASE

We also had conditions for the purchase: We wanted to keep the cost under $100 and we wanted to buy it from Lowe's (if...

I recently brought a Pronto for $30 (the regular price is around $100) from Big Lots.  Because of the Electrolux name, I took a chance on purchasing the model in a refurbished condition for the big discount in price.  The vacuum works well, and the cordless convenience is great. 

I bought the vacuum for quick jobs because my kitchen floor seems to be continually in need of cleaning.  While the Pronto picks run-of-the mill dirt well on hard floors (I have concrete and hardwoods), my guess is that carpet cleaning may be a little more difficult. 

I will say, however, that two little pads on...

Scatterback.  I have INDOOR:  four cats and a small cat-sized dog.  Hard tile floors.After almost two years of pulling hair out of the brush to get it to move for a couple sweeps, it now does not hold a charge. 

So:  It scatters cat little and almost any BIG like cat litter.  It can't pick up cat hair without getting it wrapped in the brush holder on the right side.  This renders the machine uselessER.

The hand-held is okay and performs like a high-end bagless hand held should, but put the handheld into the holder for service.  I DONT GET ANY SERVICE!

I purchased the Electrolux Pronto mainly looking for something lightweight and cordless to pick up kid messes in the kitchen, i.e. crumbs, cereal.  Most of everything I tried to vacuum up ended up pushed around the floor. Everything had to be pretty miniscule in order for this vac to pick up. Now the removable handheld vac is another story. That was awesome, it would pretty much pick up any cereal size crumbs and debris. Only thing is, I'm not looking for a vacuum that I have to be hunched over on the floor to pick everything up. It's going back to the store and I'm going to continue my search.... read full review »

This stick vacuum works wonders on my hardwood and tile floors.  After using this vacuum you wouldn't even know that I have a 90lb chocolate lab that sheds buckets!
