Cleaning is a nightmare
Ergorapido ZB3113 (Dark Grey, 5th Gen)Firstly the good news
It picks up well and is very easy to use
The bad news
the filter becomes clogged after a few minutes. Cleaning is difficult, long winded and messy.
No wonder it's discontinued
Now I know why Harvey Norman are selling it at a reduced price
Hi Vanary
After effectively cleaning a 2.5m by 2.5m carpet mat the device is immediately full with mainly cat fur. To fully clean the main filter requires the use of a conventional vacuum, which I co
Very handy too have but has its issues
Ergorapido ZB3117G (Green, 5th Gen)We have had our Model ZB3117G Stick vacuum for about 4 years now. We bought it to supplement our large plug in conventional Electrolux vacuum, but have found we use the stick vacuum 90% of the time. I does not have the suction of the large vacuum but is quite sufficient to pick up most of the rubbish.
I give it a 7 out of 10 for suction. It does have its faults however, this generally around the difficulty and fiddly nature on how the empty the waste container / filter is to clean. My wife hates this cleaning and emptying of the container ( ie

The battery has lasted well and always seems to be able to do a good vacuum when removing from charging stand. I have had to do several repairs : a) the small steel contacts on the charging stand seem to bend a little and i have had to bend adjust them to make a proper contact b) the starting switching has recently broken a was causing it to stop and start, as I am retired I had the time to pull it all to bits and make a handy mans repair on the switch, seems to work ok now Haha:) Had I not been able to do this repair we would have thrown the vacuum in the bin. Recently bought 2 new filters, Harvey Norman do not sell these, you have to go the website and buy online. $34NZ for a pack of 2. Overall the concept of a battery powered stick vacuum is great, the ease of use and portability of it.
So easy to manoeuvre
Ergorapido ZB3113 (Dark Grey, 5th Gen)This machine is a few years old now and it was passed on to me by my sister a year ago. She said I would probably find it lightweight to use as she’d lent it to a friend recovering from surgery and they had found it good. It was the best present she’s ever given me!
I have quite severe arthritis and struggle to stand upright and walk. I have sore wrists and other joints. This is hands down the easiest vacuum I’ve ever used. It is lightweight and amazing to manoeuvre. I keep it on it’s charging dock near the combustion heater to quickly clean
... Read moreup the area after adding wood. It is so easy to just keep going and do the rest of the floor. The battery lasts around 20 mins by which time I should probably give my body a rest anyway or I will be paying for it later. I like how it has a freestanding dock that is sturdy and holds the attachments. I like that the dark grey colour doesn’t attract attention. I love the headlights to illuminate dim corners. I like how it easily runs over tiles and rugs and mats without changing the head. It has some attachments but I haven’t even tried any of them I just use the standard head. It picks up most visible particles but there are larger wood chips or the odd bit of paper or bread tag it can’t pick up. There a couple of downsides to this machine. One is that the bin fills up very quickly if used on rugs or carpet and has to be emptied 2-3 times in 20mins. If the bin is full suction becomes very weak. Another issue is hair wrapping around the roller. Every time it is used it has to have the hair cut off with scissors. I see that later models include a hair cutting tool. That is good as it is the most off putting part. There are two long haired humans, two short haired humans, a cat and a very thick coated long haired chihuahua in this house. I now have a Dyson v15 to compare it to and it is not a patch on the Dyson for deeper cleaning. The v15 can replace our old Dyson barrel vac as it even cleans carpets better. The Dyson is far superior in managing hair and in easy emptying and cleaning it, but it is heavy and you have to change attachments a lot more. I like both machines very much but for a quick clean the Ergorapido still wins out in ease of use. It is just so much lighter and easier on the body, and as it is relatively cheap I’d buy another one again for sure.
It works very well
Ergorapido ZB3113 (Dark Grey, 5th Gen)When you clean the filter, clean the roller. This vac works very well, the let down is the battery doesn't last long, at the moment I'm getting 3mins from fully charged. Such a shame when the vacuum works brilliantly.

Why did I wait so long, love this
Ergorapido ZB3113 (Dark Grey, 5th Gen)I have tiles, floorboards, carpet and this baby works brilliantly on them all. So quick for a quick tidy up before visitors, for the accidental spill.. It is always ready to go when I need it.
Have vaccuumed 1/2 of my large house (approx 35 minutes) and this baby kept going. Didnt push my luck any further - so put back on charge had a cuppa. Then finished the rest. Never missed beat. Love love love it.
Great vacuum
Ergorapido ZB3112AKB (Watermelon, 5th Gen)Bought this from Myer on 6th Jan 2022.
I only use this machine on tiled floors and part of a rug covering part of the tiled floor once a day but I've tried it on carpet as well and it works splendidly. I love the lights on the vacuum head as it's easy to identify particles, especially under the furniture. The only downside is that even on full charge it lasts 15 minutes maximum, and would have given it 5 stars if it lasted a bit longer, as I always end up leaving part of the house unfinished.
