Review - The Vorticity Plus Bagless Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner from Morphy Richards

I love twitter, I really do, you meet great people and get the best pitches from people!
One day I was complaining about housework (nothing new there) when I got sent this great tweet

@Caroljs If ur ever in a housework mood, we've got new products that could make life easier. Wld you consider reviewing this sort of thing?

OK so it’s not quite “we’ll send a team of cleaners over” but I was intrigued. The tweet from a very nice man who was running the @MRLoveYourHome account, which is the twitter account for Morphy Richards and their blog Home Of The House Proud.

 This is what they sent me....


This is what Morphy Richards say about the Vorticity....

At Morphy Richards we know people regard vacuuming as a chore. People have less time these days for housework, but still want excellent results. So we have developed Vorticity; a new spin on vacuum cleaners. With its intuitive and simple design it really does give our deepest clean ever. 

This bagless vacuum cleaner comes with a groundbreaking floorhead which uses the power of a cyclone where you need it most. It uses the power of 22 mini cyclones to gently dislodge dust and dirt with ease. And Vorticity’s unique new head design glides across any floor surface for our deepest ever clean.

This brand new technology means there is the power of a cyclone whe
re you need it most.

Sounds pretty great doesn’t it? Well actually it is.

Apart from being on the heavy side (my excuse for not cleaning the stairs) I found that myself really liking this vacuum.

It is really powerful, its picks up everything first time which means no going over the same area. The head swivels slightly which means it vacuums right up to the edge of the wall without having to switch to the attachments. You can tell the difference when you move from wood flooring to carpet, you can feel the power.

The handle extends really easily and the head fits under my sofa perfectly which means again no taking the floorhead off and adding the attachments. I have never found vacuuming so quick and easy.

Other features I like is the handle clips onto the front of the voracity so it keeps nice and tidy, the cable automatically retracts and is a decent length. The attachment clips on to the handle and doesn’t fall off!

It has a 2.75 litre capacity which is rather large and to empty it you just twist and pull the canister off and empty it, so simple.  It’s pretty quiet for a high power vacuum.

It’s not cheap at £219 .99 but sometimes it pays off to invest in decent equipment, and this is a good investment.

Would I buy it? Yes

    Thanks for taking the time to write the review. So glad you liked the Vorticity and I hope it makes housework less of a chore for you. We made every effort to make it as easy and intuitive to use and it sounds like you found it to be just that. Make sure you get the stairs next time!
