I have dark hardwood and some area rugs. I need to vaccum/sweep very night. My old dyson really does not do well on these floors. I used to have and love the ergorapido. It totally died after 8 months and I went through the trouble-shooting/repair process with Electrolux. They sent out a new base, but it was the wrong one (European model). Then the correct base, then a new charger, then a new hand-held part (where the brains of the machine are), and it still didn't work. I then took it to a repair shop per their direction and he said it needs a new stick. Well, this whole process has taken about 6 months, and now the warranty doesn't apply. I am beyond annoyed.

The point is, I need something like the ergorapido because it was so convenient, but I am not too keen on getting an Electrolux again. Can you recommend something?

We love this cordless vacuum, it is super highly rated on amazon. It picks up cheerios on linoleum!
