Editorial Review:
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
Lightweight, sleek, and versatile, Electrolux's new Pronto Stick vacuum makes cleaning anything simple.

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

If you have kids or pets, you will wonder what your life was like before you had this. Parents, you understand the annoyance of the daily kitchen-floor-crumb-removal. This thing makes it painless. I used to drag out my upright vacuum, attach the tube, etc. and suck up crumbs from my kitchen floor and it was a pain. This thing has no cord and is quick and easy to use. The little handheld part pops right off and is great for doing stairs. I love this vacuum.
Big disappointment:
I bought this little vac for quick cleanups and vacuuming the stairs. I thought it was expensive but was willing to pay for Electrolux quality. Pluses: the vacuum is very quiet, is light, and swivels nicely. Minuses: The charge lasts only about 5 minutes and has very little suction. Also, the spin of the brushes prevent the vac from moving forward on carpet. The only alternative is to pull it toward you, and then pick it up and move to a new spot. It is fine for picking up crumbs on hardwood floors but... more info
Very disappointed:
I had high hopes for this vacuum since it has the Electrolux name on it and was more expensive than competitive models. But it has NO suction. I bought it for cleaning hardwood floors and small area rugs. The rotary brush works fine while in the air, but once it touches the floor it stops. I haven't been able to pick up anything other than dust bunnies. I WILL say that it swivels nicely and reaches under furniture well. Just wish it would actually work while under there!
Top of the line vacuum:
I've had this vacuum for over 2 years without any problems. In fact, it's become my main vacuum since I have hardwood floors and short carpets. It charges easily, the swivel head makes it very convenient, and the pullout hand vac is really easy to use and clean. Obviously this is not for big jobs or thick carpets. Also, I've never had a problem with the charge running out...never. I'm sure if you were to try to do your whole house that might happen, but this is meant as a quick cleaner upper.
