Good suction, different levels and not noisy. Main handle has few plastic clamps which seem cheaply made and could break after some usage. Besides that good product.

I liked the design, the light weight and yes at the beginning it has great power. But that soon wears off. And here I am again looking to buy another vacuum. Sigh.

Type
Barrel vacs [aka cylinder vacs] are the type you pull along behind you – their long hoses and wands make them well-suited to cleaning a variety of spaces, including stairs and car interiors. Upright models are good for cleaning large areas of carpet as they have built-in power heads. Stick models are included in this review if they are plugged in rather than cordless.
Barrel Dust collector
Bagless vacs have on-board bins which can be messy to empty, but at least you don't need to worry about buying bags. Bags can be less messy to remove and replace, but are an ongoing cost. See our buying guide for more info.

Recommended
We recommend barrel and upright vacuum cleaners with a CHOICE Expert Rating of at least 75%, and at least 70% for both quick carpet cleaning and complete carpet cleaning.
CHOICE Expert Rating
This overall score is made up of cleaning performance score [55%], ease of use [30%] and pet hair removal [15%].
Cleaning performance score
This score is a composite of the quick carpet clean score [67%] and the complete carpet clean score [33%].
Quick carpet clean score
The quick carpet clean score is based on just four passes over the carpet rather than the eight performed in the deep clean test. This test simulates typical everyday cleaning. We pre-load the vacuum cleaners with artificial household dust, and embed sand evenly into a section of carpet before vacuuming it to a set pattern and speed. The sand collected is then weighed and recorded as a percentage of the sand applied; this is repeated twice for each vacuum cleaner and results averaged. We rate all models based on the dirt pick-up performance from carpet using the standard cleaning head.
Complete carpet clean score
The complete carpet clean score is based on eight passes over the carpet. We pre-load the vacuum cleaners with artificial household dust, and embed sand evenly into a section of carpet before vacuuming it to a set pattern and speed. The sand collected is then weighed and recorded as a percentage of the sand applied; this is repeated twice for each vacuum cleaner and results averaged. We rate all models based on the dirt pick-up performance from carpet using the standard cleaning head.
Ease of use score
Ease of use is based on how easy it is to manoeuvre the cleaner, and move the cleaning head on the carpet and under low furniture. We assess how difficult it is to empty and change the dirt receptacle; operation of the controls; and how easy the supplied accessories are to use and store.
Pet hair removal score
To test pet hair removal, we embed cat hair in the carpet and, as with the dirt pick-up test, vacuum it to a set pattern and speed. We rate the results based on how much cat hair is left behind after the test. Where supplied, the turbo brush or power head is used for this test; otherwise, we use the standard cleaning head. Pet hair for testing supplied by Woof Cat & Dog Grooming, Bondi, NSW.
Cleaning corners and edges score
To test this, sand is spread into a right-angled corner. Using the standard cleaning head, it's vacuumed to see how close to the corner each cleaner is able to pick up dirt.
Noise [dB]
Noise is measured at the user's position at maximum power setting. For comparison, a typical conversation is carried out at about 60dB, while city traffic is measured at around 80dB.
Availability
Tested models are currently available in shops. Discontinued models are from earlier tests and are no longer available, though you may find them in second-hand stores or discount retailers as stock is cleared.

Warranty [years]
This is the manufacturers stated warranty.
Shop Ethical rating
Shop Ethical rates the environmental and social impact of the company [not the product] using independent sources. This rating is not included in our total score. N/A means there is no rating for that company.
Reliability score
These scores are taken from our latest brand reliability survey and do not contribute to the CHOICE Expert Rating. The score refers to the brand, not a particular model. N/A or Not available means there weren't enough responses for that brand to get a score.
Satisfaction score
These scores are taken from our latest brand reliability survey. When rating satisfaction we ask owners to tell us what they think of the products they own. We use this information to give each brand an owner satisfaction rating so you can see what people who use the brand each day think of them. N/A or Not available means there weren't enough responses for that brand to get a score.
Country of origin
The model has a claimed origin. This ought to be taken with a grain of salt, given it's rare that all the materials for a product came from the one country.
Hungary
Power stated [W]
The vacuum cleaner's stated power consumption [usually its claimed maximum power].
1600 Power measured [W]
The power consumption we measure in the lab, on the maximum power setting after a two-minute running-in period. This can be different from the stated power consumption – this may be due to differences in how manufacturers measure it. Take the stated power consumption as a guide only.
Measured dust collector volume [L]
The bag or bin's volume in litres, measured in our lab.
Reach from power point [m]

Carpet-hard floor head
The standard head for many vacuum cleaners, this head can be used on either carpet or hard floor, and usually has a foot-operated switch to adjust between the two modes. It usually has brush edges that lower in hard floor mode to protect the floor.
Yes Power head
Has a motorised brush and is a good option for quickly cleaning up pet hair and lint as well as extracting dirt from carpet.
No Turbo brush
Has a rotating brush driven by the vacuum's air flow. Good for picking up pet hair and lint, though generally less effective than a power head.
No Hard floor tool
A head or tool attachment specifically for cleaning hard floors.
No Crevice tool
A long, narrow attachment for cleaning narrow gaps [e.g. between sofa cushions].
Yes Upholstery tool
An attachment for cleaning soft furnishings such as curtains, sofa cushions and so on.
Yes Dusting brush
An attachment for dusting and vacuuming hard furniture, along skirting boards and architraves, and so on.
Yes On-board storage
It's more convenient to store the tools and attachments in or on the body of the vacuum cleaner than to have to keep them separately elsewhere. Some models only have storage for one or two of the supplied tools.
Yes Wand suction control
A small hole with a sliding cover on the wand that allows you to reduce the suction for delicate cleaning jobs by letting some air escape through the hole.
Yes Variable power
A control on the body or handle of the vacuum cleaner that lets you set different power levels for different jobs, from delicate cleaning of upholstery to more powerful suction for carpet or hard floors.
Yes HEPA filter
High-Efficiency Particulate Air filtration - a filter for trapping very fine dust and pollen. Useful if you have allergies or asthma. Some are washable, others need to be replaced every year or so.
Yes Washable HEPA filter
A washable HEPA filter means you won't need to buy a replacement, but remember to clean it regularly for maximum performance.
Yes Dust bag full or clear bin indicator
An indicator that the bag is full and needs replacement [or a clear bin that lets you see when emptying is needed].
Yes Blower facility
The vacuum can switch from suction to blowing out air. Handy for inflating things like airbeds and balloons, or for blasting dust from hard-to-reach areas.
Is Electrolux vacuum a good brand?
While many of us today know Electrolux for its excellent large appliances, such as the best washing machine we've ever tested, our grandparents and their parents recognize the brand for its incredible reputation in the vacuum industry. In fact, making floor cleaning easier was one of its original missions.
What happened to Electrolux vacuums?
Aerus is the successor to Electrolux USA, the iconic manufacturer of vacuum cleaners. However, the Electrolux name is now used in the U.S. by the Electrolux Group of Sweden, which until 2016 also manufactured Eureka vacuum cleaners.
What is a good vacuum cleaner wattage?
Air watts are a European test standard [IEC60312] for vacuums. An upright vacuum cleaner should be around 100 air watts and a cylinder vacuum cleaner needs to be about 220 air watts.
How long does the Electrolux stick vacuum last?
Ergorapido features high performance Lithium TurboPower battery for optimal cleaning performance and longer run time [up to 35 minutes on low speed]. The LED battery indicator shows when its time to recharge.
