Tower VL30 Review

The Tower VL30 Vacuum Cleaner is a cordless and lightweight 3-in-1 appliance with a multitude of features and a modern design to make vacuuming easy and convenient. It can be used as an upright stick, a long range cleaning wand, and a short range hand-held. Suitable surfaces include hard floors, carpets and upholstery. We particularly like the motorised brush head that extracts dust, dirt and allergens from below the carpet line.

The Tower VL30 has a 140W motor that generates suction inside a cyclonic system. Essentially, dust is separated from the air intake using rotational acceleration. There's an HEPA filter present which is highly effective at removing dust, pet hair, and allergens, emptying them into a large and easy to empty dust tank. For more stubborn dust and debris, there's a boost mode. We look at the features in more detail soon.

We like the ergonomic and comfortable to grip handle. We rate the Tower VL30 Vacuum Cleaner 4 out of 5 stars.
