Numatic International - Henry Canister Series

The Sharks are cosplaying. More like a Silverfish. That's a good price for the Henry. One was about to get thrown out - had it over 10 years easy. I thought let me just take it apart and have a look... The contacts were dirty.. Cleaned them, cleaned it out & working perfectly again.

Hands down the Henry. I have had two sharks, a Dyson and a Hoover upright, all bagless. My Henry Pet has out lasted them all and Neumatic have great customer service and are a UK made product.

Gewoon een Hetty! Krachtig, grote stofzak, en bovendien super makkelijk in onderhoud. En mocht er onverhoopt toch iets kapot gaan, alle onderdelen zijn los te koop en voor iemand met twee linker handen en YouTube zelf te fixen!! De onderdelen zelf kosten amper wat. Dus een kei goeie stofzuiger en erg duurzaam!!! [Hetty](https://www.bol.com/nl/p/numatic-180-hetty-eco-stofzuiger-accessoire-kit-as1-620w/9300000013268210?referrer=socialshare_pdp_androidapp)

I�ve got the 15 with the laser, and agree it�s really there for convenience I can quickly grab it whilst I�m waiting for the coffee machine to heat up or the kettle to boil and give the living room / lounge a quick once over, etc It takes a bit of maintaining, so I�ve got a couple of filters so I can swap out when one needs washing, and you�ve gotta take it �apart� occasionally and clean out the canister and vents inside with a brush, but it works and has enough suction to do a decent job. I�ve got a good old Henry for the deep cleans, has way more suction but is much more heavy to carry around and means pulling out the cable and plugging it in

If you choose the Henry be prepared to smash it off every corner in your house as you have multiple tug of wars with him as he will refuse just to bloody unhook and follow you. Would still choose the Henry though!

Henry do not clean well. They have a long hose and are indestructible, but terrible at actually cleaning. Bad emissions too.

Shark every time. Henry are indestructible but they are huge, bulky and frankly every one I�ve used has been bang average

Henry does now come in a model similar to the shark

My point was the Henry falls down the stairs a bit too well, and is a heavy old lump.

Henry. No more needs to be said.

Vacuums. Hoover is a brand of vacuum cleaner. I'm a long-term user of a Dyson V7 for the quick jobs and a Henry for the larger areas.

Prices in Europe are more reasonable for Miele, Sebo and the Henry. Miele S series, Sebo K series and Henry would be the models I'ld be looking at.

Henry- heads etc are easy to replace if you need to. You can swap out the filter for odour neutralising. There�s a pet head. You could go for the direct animal model. George is a wet and dry hoover, and we have had one, but these days we have Henry and a Bessel carpet cleaner specifically for washing the carpets. Worth stating that most hoovers will fail to completely pull hairs up and so it�s useful to also have a rubber brush, or a window squidgee. You will be supposed at how much hair those things pull up�

My favorites are Fantom Toz kapani and Electrolux T8 bagless (wich is the only multi cyclonic canister vacuum i know Electrolux ever made) And the one i hate is (Let's just say don't like) Roventa compact power bagless. (it's so bulky and also the hose makes noises in every move also the head is impossible to pull forward/backwards because you can't remove the hairs that tangle to the wheel) Oh and i think henry is the only vacuum i would buy as a bagged vacuum.

For a house with carpets, I would always go with an upright with a roller. So much better for fluffing up carpets. For hard floors, a Henry would be perfect. To counter the Henry, Screwfix ow brand titan wet and dry vacuums are amazing! so cheap, but so much suction. Have a couple for my workshop and don�t want to say bad things about Henry.. but I think it�s better than him.

I have a shark, blocks all the time, and is average as best. I have a Henry for the outdoor office, and it never fails. That said, it's not as flexible and light as the shark.

I left my Henry outside once - he must've misbehaved. Downpour overnight. Gave him a week to dry off, cleaned the wheels and works like new. I can attest they are indestructible

Henry. The most workiest mcworkface of them all. Ubiquitous in homes to offices to building sites but never at the tip

Henry is the GOAT but then he goes and does this every 10mins. All together now- "fucks sake Henry!" https://preview.redd.it/f2j14dzkrs1g1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4fe68236cbb63a1a4df86386187db96797002ef9

Henry wins every time

Shark. It's lighter, and much easier to use around the house. Our Henry is forever getting caught on something as we drag it around.

Probably not the response you�re looking for but I have 1 of each! The Henry thrives doing almost any task (except rounding corners) and the Shark is so much better for manoeuvrability and detailing work. Who wants to use a Henry on the stairs?!

I had this exact discussion with my wife, she wanted a shark I wanted a Henry we got a shark, we're currently on our second shark and the henry I use at work which is frequently tossed into the back of a work van and has to hoover up all sorts of nefarious unmentionables is chugging along into it's 5th year, it's gonna need some therapy though... I think the Henry I used at my previous job is still working as well, absolute cockeoaches, I admit they are large and clumsy and not ideal for smaller homes though

The only correct answer. Millions sold and with very little advertising which is a testament to the brand. Been going for years without needlessly changing the design so you aren�t stuck with obsolete parts. Easily serviceable with inexpensive spare parts, all of which are readily available directly from Numatic and a decent range of attachments available too. Bought a Dyson cordless when I first moved in but it just felt a bit work shy and complained a lot. Replaced with a Henry and it�s a trooper. Does everything well with no fuss. I�ve used it in the garage. I�ve attached it to the mitre saw. It�ll ingest sawdust and nails like it�s nothing. Got one at the shop too, I�m sure it�s been there for at least 15 years and it�s used at least three times a week. Hasn�t seen a bag in years. What a fucking *brilliant* machine.

Had both. Ended up selling the shark and kept Henry

I love our good old trusty Henry!

Henry. Made in the UK. Buy once, it�ll last a lifetime. Parts are cheap and readily available.

My Henry has been battered and ridden like a car by my kid - dropped down the stairs more times then I can count - stuck on door frames and I just tug him around - that guy is indestructible and cleans everything.

Henry all the way. I remember at uni our old Hoover broke and they replaced it with a brand new Henry. The cleaners actually used to leave their Dyson in our flat and use our Henry in the rest of the block instead because it was so much better

Henry because he's cheaper and just look at him! They do be pissing me off when they get stuck and just sit there smiling as you BUT I am yet to be let down by a Henry hoover ? I got a yellow Hettie a few years ago for Christmas of my parents and haven't looked back, she is a badass bitch and I love her! If you read up on Henry hoovers there has been LOADS - I love the fact they made a way to humanise a hoover ??

Have both here (moved in with the other half and we both had a Hoover lol). The Henry will survive a nuclear blast... The shark however sucks or drags literally everything out of the carpet. I'd personally go with the shark ??

Dyson are the ones of choice, however, I cannot betray my trusted HENRY hoover. It even has the right name!

Henry - the kings of hoovers

Henry pet because shark was shit

You can't destroy a Henry. Even if you do you can get spares and replacements. I have two. One at work and one at home. My only criticism / Henry's down side is storage. Those type of vacuums just don't fit nicely in any space when you have a small house.

I have the Henry. Love it

Henry or Miele for BIFL.

Or upside down as he does a 180�. We've got both vacuums and the Shark is just way better at using around the house. Henry was good, but now he's been relegated to rubble/car vac.

Henry gives a good suck for a reasonable price

If you have somewhere to store the Henry then okay.� My partner has one and it is constantly in the way. Left in the middle of the floor, or hallway. There is one spot in the entire house where it fits without being in the way and it never ends up staying there for long.� I despise its jolly little innocent eyes now.�

Ohh I would be torn. I have a Henry for the dirty jobs like my DIY as its indistructable. I have my cordelss shark for everyday use and then a Dyson for heavy but non dirty jobs.

Went the othery. Had a shark, constantly had to clean it, replaced filters etc. Henry is a Joe in comparison.

Henry's are great, only thing shark has on them is the newer ones are cordless

The difficulty with Henry's is getting him up and down stairs. Can be lethal if he comes flying down from the top. If you only have one floor or a second vac to do stairs I'd go for Henry.
