OK, let’s get started…
Vacuum cleaners have revolutionized the way we clean our homes, but have one major disadvantage. They are usually bulky and difficult to get out to start cleaning.
This can be an issue when you need a quick clean up, or you just need to clean a few spots. More often than not, it’s not worth it to go through all that hassle for few crumbs. And before you know it, all those add up, and you don’t know how your home got so dirty!
Then it got easier…
Along came the cordless machine, which was pretty lightweight and much easier to get out. You could keep a handheld one, like the GTech Multi, handy in your kitchen or living room.
Now it’s been taken one step further with the GTech ProLite….
This handheld, light and easy-to-use handheld vacuum is ideal for those tasks. The GTech ProLite promises to solve all those issues and provide a quick and efficient way to vacuum small spots.
Let’s see all the features that can make this possible.
Key Features
Let’s start by looking at the key features at a glance:
KEY FEATURES
- Lightweight and easy to use
- Versatile attachments
- Triple layered filter bags
- Compatible with other GTech batteries
Lightweight and easy to use
To ensure easy operation and carrying, GTech have kept the weight to a minimum, at only 1kg. That means that anyone in the family can use it with ease and take it with them wherever they need.
The ProLite is also cordless, so there aren’t any cords to drag around or plug sockets to change. You can finally move from room to room with freedom.
In addition, all the controls are conveniently positioned on the handle, so you can simply grab it and start vacuuming within seconds.
Versatile attachments
The GTech ProLite comes with a few accessories to help you tackle different cleaning tasks.
If you’ve got awkward areas and corners in your home, you can use the crevice tool to easily reach into tight spaces. For cleaning upholstery or your car interior, you can use the dusting brush.
You can also purchase the accessory kit for an additional £50, which includes a flexible powered hose, a small power brush head, and a wall mount for easy storage.
Triple layered filter bags
The hygienic vacuum bags used in the GTech ProLite feature three layers to filter out all the dust and debris you pick up. This helps the vacuum capture dirt more effectively and provide increased durability.
The bags are very well-designed and can hold much more dirt than they seem. They have a capacity of 0.5L, and once you replace them, that’s it — there’s no need to replace an additional filter since they act like a filter themselves.
Once you run out of bags, you can buy an extra pack of 15 ProLite dust bags for just £12.99.
Compatible with other GTech batteries
If you already own the HyLite or HyLite 2 vacuum from GTech, you’ll be glad to know that you only need to buy the ProLite body without the battery and charger.
That’s because the ProLite uses the same battery, and you can use it between the two devices interchangeably. This will allow you to save half the price!
The battery is a rechargeable 14.4V Lithium-ion, and recharges fully in just 2 hours. Once charged, it can last up to 30 minutes, and includes an LED indicator, so you know when you need to charge it.
