Description
The Scientific Industries Vortex-Genie 2 is widely regarded as the gold standard in laboratory vortex mixers, known for its rugged metal construction and long-standing reputation for durability and reliability. It offers variable speed control for everything from gentle shaking to high-speed vortexing, and can be operated in either Touch mode (hands-on, momentary mixing) or Continuous mode (hands-free, sustained mixing). The mixer ships with a removable pop-off cup head, suited for a single tube up to 40 mm in diameter and 200 mm in length, along with a 3-inch platform for beakers, flasks, or multiple tubes, and a broad range of additional interchangeable mixing heads (sold separately) extend its versatility to microtubes, microplates, and other vessel types. Its tough metal housing and shock-absorbing feet provide a stable platform that helps prevent “walking” during use, and the unit is rated for use in cold rooms and incubators, making it a dependable, no-frills choice for everyday lab mixing tasks.
