the Morphy Richards Vorticity bagless vaccuum doesnt have great reviews on the Which report - well its good on hard floors but not on carpet, and also rubbish at picking up hair apparently if that is a concern!0

Morphy Richards one is sitting outside, I had it about a yea but things would get stuck in the tube a lot and it used to be VERY loud, i could not hoover at night at all. Also the tools are a real faff and the cord is not long enough so I'd be moving it from plug to plug to get the house donw which used to really annoy me. And it used to fall down the stairs when I got half way but the tube was not long enough to do all if the stairs in one go. I don't think I'd choose that brand again. I've gone back to Vax now.
Which vax would you recommend? Am seriously looking to get one from Argos today. Thanks.You are 48% tight

I picked one up a couple of hours ago, easy to set up, feels like a quality item (certainly better than the vax we have had nothing but bother from for the last two years anyway). Happy with it!
Dont forget to register it online so you get the 5 year waranty!To anyone that tells you "There is no I in team" say no there isn't
But there ARE TWO I'S IN COMMISSION and I dont get paid "Team"

Thanks am going to get it in about an hour time. Do I have to register it after buying or before? I see they have up to 3 years replacement product care for £18.99 but I can't purchase online.You are 48% tight

I am a bit of a Vax convert in the hoovering stakes as long as you get over 1800 watts, you'll be fine. The Centrix is a but plasticy but it does the job really well and has really good suction which is all I want it for.

I keep on thinking I'd love a Dyson but I get a bit bored with the hoover and need a new one and it's a lot of money to fork out and then get bored with it.
How can anyone get bored with ahoover? !:( I have had a dyson upright for for about 15 years and it is still going strong0 -

I really can't believe that this was ever worth £199.99 though!0 -
I wouldn't bother with the extended warranty from argos on this as all you have to do to get a free 3 year (Over the standard 2 year) warranty is to register it on line within 28 days of getting it home. If you feel the argos warranty is still better for you, you can go back to argos and buy the extended warranty from them up to a week after picking up your vacuum.To anyone that tells you "There is no I in team" say no there isn't

If you look on amazon these sell for over £80 plus delivery, so I too question the £199.99 tag (Even though on amazon they refer to over £220 as the price) I would say it is a good buy when under £50 though, thats why I bought one!To anyone that tells you "There is no I in team" say no there isn't

I bought a Morphy Richards Vorticity at the weekend and it's brilliant. Works great on hard floors and carpets and has no trouble picking up hair. Hair was my main concern as my house is always covered in my long hair, but this picks up brilliantly. My mum got one before Christmas too and she loves it. She has a German Shepherd which malts all over the place, and she says its brilliant for picking up his hairs. Best hoover both me and my mum have ever had! Still at £199 at John Lewis too.
