Anybody got a Henry?

[Onthedrops]

I need a new vac for car cleaning and general clearing up duty.

Been looking at a Henry.

Anybody got one? Are they a good vac? What's the suction like? (Ooh, Matron!)

 

[ianrauk]

They are the very best hoover you can buy bar none.
Great suction, easy to fix and to get spare parts for.

A million builders cant be wrong.

Pretty good mother suckers but they fall over too easily when being dragged.

 

[Fab Foodie]

They're fab!

 

[potsy]

Best hoover I've ever had, and because it's got a face and a name you have someone to talk to as you work

 

[r04DiE]

Yep, they're good but they're not fully bullet-proof. They are probably as good as you're gonna get though.

Henry is ok on hard floors and cheap carpets that are not thick pile, thats why most cleaning companies/office cleaners use them

when it comes to thick pile carpets, Mielie is the rolls royce but expensive... don't try clean the ashes from your fireplace with one of these though

the new Dyson ball ones are good value for money and work well ....

I have an apprentice called Henry. Here he is pushing a big banana plant through a small corridor

The housekeeping department in work use Henry hoovers. If they're good for commercial use.....

I have a Meile.

We had our first Henry in about 1982 and have always owned one since, I also have a George for the garage. Uprights are always a Sebo or a Miele.

Dyson's well we owned one for a very short while.

My relationship with Henry has been longer than the one with my wife, which is 22 years now.
There have been a few moments when I've thought the wrong one is in the garage, and I can easily stop the noise from one of them by unplugging it.

Mr WD has a Henry in his workshop. I don't think it's that good to be honest. Fine on hard floors, but a bit rubbish on carpets. Not as much suction as a lot of vacuum cleaners.

Has he cleaned it?

We have a Henry at work. It's useless. Or the cleaner is. I think it's the Henry.
I fell out of love with my dyson cordless very quickly, it's brushes got very tangled with long hair and then it decided not to work for more than five minutes at a time.
We've just bought a Shark lift away and it's amazing!! It's got lights and everything !!

Has he cleaned it?

Of course. He has had it for years. Its not difficult to figure out how to clean it. he thinks its good. It's just my opinion that its rubbish. Although he has never used it on carpets, I have.
