Product Description
It's the everyday home cleaning maintenance that people find most annoying. Yet every day we generate dirt. Here's a simple way to deal with it. Eureka Pronto acts as a lightweight stick vacuum to completely clean the hard floors in your home. Plus, with the push of a button, Pronto transforms into a powerful hand vacuum with a built in crevice tool, allowing you to reach everywhere. Pronto's cleaning ability increases with the 180 degree swivel head that lets you clean in, around and under anything in your home. Pronto combines a motorized brush roll with a cyclonic dust cup to increase its cleaning effectiveness. The cyclonic suction technology actually spins dust away from Pronto's two-filter system to help maintain suction power longer. And Pronto has two power settings. Choose between full power or, if someone is sleeping, select the quiet mode.
Emptying the dust cup has never been easier! Pronto's innovative design gives you three different ways to remove the dust without ever getting your hands dirty. You can remove the entire dust cup to clean the cup and filter, or simply snap open the front cover and tip out the dust. Also, the vacuum port allows you to vacuum clean the cup so you never have to touch the dust again. Pronto is always ready to clean, with a built in stand and no cord to worry about. You can even hang the charging station on the wall to save space in your home. Now you will never have to hide your elegant Pronto in the closet and it will always be charged and ready to give you a superior quick clean. Pronto lets you know when everything is running smoothly. When the brush roll is working, the blue brush roll indicator light will be illuminated. Powerful cyclonic suction with four-stage filtration; its no-bag technology saves money and hassle, too Permanent, removable dustbin is easy to empty without ever touching any dirt
Amazon.com Review
Lightweight, sleek, and versatile, Electrolux's new Pronto Stick vacuum makes cleaning anything simple. With a special 2-in-1 feature, users can employ the Pronto as either an upright or opt to remove the nexus of the appliance for a handheld model. Equipped to tackle filthy carpets, stairs, upholstery, and hardwood floors alike, the vacuum further endears itself with an environmentally friendly bag-less format. The vacuum extricates dirt away from floors by using a two-filter system with four stages of cyclonic suction. A motorized brush roll collects pet hair and dust while a built-in crevice tool address tight corners. The vacuum's head swivels up to 180 degrees for enhanced mobility. The vacuum offers two power settings, high power and quiet mode for times when others are sleeping. Debris collects in a large dust cup that can be emptied in three different ways. Cordless in design, the vacuum eliminates tangled cords while providing endless range of movement. A wall-mounted charging station accompanies the Pronto, allowing convenient storage while recharging. For the best results and safety, read all enclosed material prior to use. This item is covered by a two-year limited warranty. The vacuum measures 42 by 11 by 5 inches and weighs 12 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

 Great for quick cleanups September 4, 2008
D. F. (Greenburgh, NY)
I bought this stick vac to replace a swivel sweeper which replaced a hard to replace cordless stick vac Oreck. The Swivel Sweeper was horrible. What a nightmare, didn't pick up a thing.
Then I saw the Electrolux. The color was hot but how would it perform?
I missed my Oreck, it had a removable dust buster and it was cordless; perfect for messes caused by kids and husbands.
The Electrolux also has a removable dust buster which I must say does quite a good job, especially since it has a built in crevice tool. Some people don't like that you must hold down the on button while you use the duster buster but I love it. The jobs for the duster buster are usually fast so I don't need to hold down the button too long.
The full stick vac is superb on my carpet and on my floors.
Its great for fast cleanups due to messes or just a quick clean up before an in-law visit.
On floors it can get a little tricky to use, it may throw around the debris a bit before actually picking it up but like my title states its great for quick pickups. I would definitely not buy this as a one and only vacuum. This is perfect as a second vacuum for quick small jobs.
A quick word on price.
Amazon had the best price by far.
Even after those 20% off coupons that all those chain stores may offer they still can't match Amazon.
 Disappointment August 25, 2008

I had high hopes, but this has no power. Clogs instantly and then loses power after only a few pushes of the broom. Took it for "repair" and was told not to bother -- that there was nothing I could do and that it wasn't even really an Electrolux product. A waste of my time and money.
Handy, versatile vacuum! August 11, 2008
dawn (California)
This is a great light weight vacuum. I have 2 dogs and this vacuum really comes in handy. It has good suction, it is easy to clean out the filter, and the charge really lasts. I originally purchased it to keep up on the pet hair, but then discovered how great it works on the hardwood steps! No more lugging my heavy vacuum up and down the steps. I highly recommend it!
WOW, THIS IS A PIECE OF CRAP August 10, 2008

It looks great. I was so excited. I would just whip it out and vacuum my floor and stick it back on its charging stand. No cord to dance around. What could be better? Well, first of all, the suction comes from basically a dust-buster, so don't expect to be able to pick anything up. The beater bar runs for about 30 seconds before it craps out and requires an overnight recharge. Electrolux, if you could make it do what it should I would pay triple the price. As it is, mine is sitting down at the Goodwill.
Bad Suction August 9, 2008

Doesn't even pick up tiny pieces of paper or large crumbs. Really bad suction. Picks up some pet hair.
