I have to say that the Henry gets consistently good reviews on the sites I have visited. Additionally, one reviewer said that they are made in England. Don't know if that is the case, but if so it would be a rarity these days.  ;) :y

They certainly are, iirc in Dorset, but could be wrong on the place.... I used to repair their range and then used to sell them for a national company. They actually offered my a Job in about 1984, they travelled to interview me over Dinner....someone spotted the even and rang my boss, got hauled into the office the following morning first thing, often wonder what life might have been like if I had replied differently, I stayed with the distributor rather than move on to the manufacturer..... :D :D :D

Henry hoovers are good, used one when car valeting.

Numatic brand for wet/dry upholstry work.


used the Dyson DC01  DC04 and DC07 Animai each one far better than the earlier models.  Still using DC07 fault free  and must be heading up for 7 years old now, cant fault it.

Have also been rather impressed with a Bosch upright I once tried.


Plus was impressed the aSamsung Reurb cylinder Vac I bought off ebay for GF.  Took his work that many of the vacs may simply have been damaged boxes, this was one of them, absouploutly brand fire new, all still wrapped in plastic and never even switched on, all tools inc, just no box, 25% cody of retail.  :y

the old Dyson was good for pet hairs, when it broke we got this super massively powerful Panasonic black thing - looked the dogs doo dahs but blew up in a week (took it back to Comet and said smoke was pouring out it, of course the guy switched it on to see and filled the store with black smoke and a strong burning smell - quickly got a refund on the busy saturday morning  ;D)  went back to another Dyson - does the trick  :y


although i do have a soft spot for the old Hoover with the big headlight my mum had for about 30yrs  :y

Having used many, many, many types of vacuum cleaners in my trade life as a decorator, I have to say that when I open the cupboard and there stands a Sebo, my eyes light up and I go into orgasmic convulsions ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

The best ;)

Had two Dysons, bit fragile, so would recommend a Henry.
