You ain't seen a vacuum cleaner like this before...

For the first time in my life I have finally found a vacuum cleaner that can handle my home and the messes in it. It’s been a life-long search and the Electrolux Ergorapido can not only handle anything my family throws at it, it’s also stylish and it’s an upright so my poor back no longer has to suffer.

When I think of how my previous vacuum cleaners suffered at my hands…oh the humanity. Who would have thought I would try and blame their lack of performance on my poor pets?

Here’s what happened…

Just as an FYI, you should know that this advertorial is sponsored by Electrolux Ergorapido. 

There was one thing my husband and I always agreed on just weeks after starting to date. We agreed that as soon as we moved in together we’d buy a dog or two, and not little handbag dogs. We both grew up with medium to large breeds and wanted pets that could run alongside us and that our children could grow up with.

We ended up with two large mixed breeds and were in heaven, until the first time our vacuum cleaner jammed. I was vacuuming away as I did several times a day because they shed everywhere, when I noticed the brush roll had come to a grinding halt. It wasn’t spinning at all.

I exclaimed in frustration and called out to my husband while saying, “Bloody dog hair has jammed the vacuum cleaner”.

My husband started taking it all apart to fix it and asked me to come over and take a look. There was the vacuum cleaner brush roll, snugly wrapped with lots and lots of long, auburn hair, which clearly came from me, not the dogs. Well, one less thing to blame them for.

Life is messy and in the case of homes containing women AND pets, a bit hairy. Vacuum cleaners have to be able to handle all of this and finally I have found one that does.

My new Electrolux is the first vacuum cleaner I’ve used that has a brush roll that can cope with my home. It uses a unique technology that requires little effort to get rid of all entwined hairs or fibres in the brush roll, so I’m thinking it can also handle the incredible amount of loom bands on my carpet as well, thank God.

I’m not quite sure how I shed so much hair and it was shocking to see it all tangled up in our own vacuum cleaner. I should be bald! But it’s just hair. It’s such a relief to know that my Electrolux Ergorapido can take care of it all.

Basically all you do is give your home a vacuum, push the pedal, an internal blade cuts the entwined hair before it is absorbed into the dust cup, and the hair is gone. Even better, the nozzle LED lights help me see if I’ve missed any spots.

This vacuum cleaner is so amazing that you can use it specifically to clean up hair messes. So whether you have groomed your pets, given your kids hair a quick trim or done a major blow dry on your own hair, you don’t have to sweep up first, you can just go ahead and vacuum instead.

The Electrolux Ergorapido is the best vacuum cleaner I’ve ever owned. It’s fast, powerful and easy to use. So instead of vacuuming being a huge chore, it’s something I can do to quickly clean my home, bathroom and even the rug the dogs sleep on. I’m tempted to vacuum their fur while they are lying down. I know my Electrolux could handle it, but dog therapists are expensive, so I’ll avoid doing it, for now.

What do you blame on your pets?
