We don’t vacuum like we used to apparently. Where once we performed a deep weekly clean, households today prefer instant cleans several times a week, according to Electrolux.
This gives life to products like the Ergorapido ($299), a lightweight, manoeuvrable and colourful battery powered cleaner that can be plucked from its charge stand for quickie grab-and-go tidy ups (or solo air guitar concerts).
It’s so light and easy to handle, in fact, that the company says even the elderly and kids can use it with ease – not that any kid would, though.
Cleaning cred includes a motorised brush head for scooping up crumbs, hair and dust from carpet and hard floors, and cyclonic centrifugal force for separating particles from the airflow inside the Ergorapido. In a nice touch, there’s even an LED headlight in the nozzle for spotting the grot in dark corners and under furniture.
Life sucks a bit less now! all we need now is Hawaiian Shirts to be accepted mainstream and life will be rosy
Indeed. Although Pete’s shirts aren’t actually Hawaiian. They look it… but they’re not!
