Product Reviews

Ideal for quick pick-ups around the house, this rechargeable-broom vacuum cleaner features a lightweight, cordless design for enhanced mobility. Push the switch on the handle and lower to an operating position to turn the unit on. For convenience, the vacuum cleaner will stop running with the handle in the upright position. The unit’s powered brush roll can be used on both carpets and bare floors, while its exclusive rotating nozzle cleans around tight corners and narrow spaces. In addition, the vacuum provides an ultra-slim, fold-flat profile for access to hard-to-reach areas like under beds, dressers, and other furniture. The cleaner fully assembles with just one snap of the upper handle into the lower handle, and its compact, highly efficient motor lasts a long time on a single battery charge. For ease of use, both the washable filter and the bagless dirt cup pop out for quick cleaning. The rechargeable-broom vacuum cleaner measures approximately 10 by 6 by 42 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

Better options are out there
My family has owned three cordless stick vacs (Electrolux, Eureka and Hoover brands) and the Electrolux Pronto is the best. The Hoover was light and had great mobility but suction was poor, not much better than a carpet sweeper. Eureka had much better suction and good battery life but could not fit into tight places. Electrolux Pronto has the best of everything with good suction, enough battery life to sweep up one floor of our house. The best feature is the removable hand vac - we can clean up between our couch cusions or along floor trim. We have two kids (3y.o. and 1y.o.) and the Pronto keeps all the crumbs and hair off the floor, we use it at least once per day. We bring out the canister vac for whole-house cleaning but the Electrolux Pronto cordless helps us keep the house neat on a day to day basis.

Best of three I tried
Based on the reviews in Amazon, I purchased three stick vacuum cleaners: Hoover's Slider, Dirt Devil 083414 Extreme, and Electrolux Pronto Stick Vac. I found the Electrolux the weakest and least effective of them all. The Dirt Devil was more effective but noisy. The Slider was the best of the three and is the best value for money. Stick vacs are great for small clean ups between regular vacuuming.

Good but not great
I purchased the Hoover S2105 to use primarily in the kitchen. I have a 2.5 year old daughter who makes a lot of messes with food so this electric broom/vacuum seemed to be just what we needed. I knew this item would not replace my regular vacuum nor my regular broom and mop. I mainly wanted it to pick up in between heavy cleanings.

Overall, I am pleased with the product. It's very lightweight and easy to use. Even my daugher likes to push it around. The fact that it is cordless is a huge plus and was one of the deciding factors that lead me to purchase the BrushVac. The only problem is that it doesn't pick up some of the larger peices of food very well, such as Cheerios. It will also push cat litter around a bit so you sometimes have to go over an area a with a couple of strokes before it's clean. Other than that, it's great. I'd rather run the electric broom over an area a couple of times as opposed to getting the broom and dustpan out and doing it manually. Therefore, I would recommend this product.
