opportunity to get inspired by the innovative ideas of design students all over
the world,' says Keith McLoughlin, President and CEO of Electrolux.

thinking. Their conclusion was, 'The Portable Spot Cleaner is built on very solid
consumer insight and is highly relevant. It is an instant laundry device that has a
