Hardly an icon of luxury, the vacuum is more commonly viewed as the weapon of choice for janitors, maids, stay at home moms, and those who rank somewhere along the Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder spectrum. Companies like Dyson, Kirby, and Hoover may offer state-of-the-art sucking technology; but the offensively loud, droning, cat-terrorizing machine is still seen as considerably less sexy and luxurious than, say, a feather duster from The Dollar Tree.
Enter the most expensive vacuum cleaner in the world: The Crystal Ergoripado by Electrolux. Created in 2009 by Polish Fashion designer Lukasz Jemiol, the vacuum was commissioned to commemorate Electrolux’s popular Ergoripado model. The limited edition black and white version of this model was chosen to be adorned head to toe with 3,730 Swarovski crystals. Electrolux lovingly states “Inspired by (the Ergoripado’s) beautiful form, we decided to create something extraordinary” Electrolux has already won several design awards for the sleek Ergoripado.
This one-off, record-breaking vacuum cleaner is still available at a hefty $19,340, leading one to question the overlap between those who could afford the pricey cleaning device and those who actually vacuum their own houses.
Not since the iconic 50’s Stepford wife glided a Hoover around in high heels has the vacuum had such an image make over. The lesson here is that with enough diamonds, Swarovski crystals, or even just a bedazzler, the most humble household item can discover it’s inner diva.
