The Henry range are a truly British Institution. Almost every office is cleaned with a Henry at the end of the day, when your stuck at work, after hours finishing off and his little smile comes round the corner it is genuinely uplifting, like he's saying "Cheer up, son... Not long to go, last good push "

Agreed!

Henrys are legendary in the UK, I don't think I've ever encountered a cleaner or tradesman who doesn't have one in his van because they do everything well and are virtually unkillable.

My Brother's Ex killed our Henry. It had been in our family for 25 years. Her first use, she sucked up a pair of her used underwear and not realising the noise had changed kept going until it overheated. Thankfully he left her soon after that.

I mean *technically* they did because the face is optional (at least the US versions are). It comes in the box and you can leave it off but I think leaving it off would be so sad.

In the UK, the Henry, and associated Numatic canisters of varying sizes have been the commercial vacuum of choice for over 30 years. They are massively popular as shop vacs, office vacs and vacs for tradesmen to carry round in the backs of their vans. They may not be built as solidly as they used to be due to cost cutting to increase profits while keeping the price as low as possible, but their simplicity and the fact they still use bags, requiring next to no maintenance, means they still sell extremely well for business and domestic customers alike, in fact, Henry has become more aimed at the domestic user than ever before in the UK, with many different variants of the Henry, in several colours, all with the characteristic smiley face, that kids love as well as adults.

@@charlesrodriguez7984Best of all, he's still made in Chard, Somerset. When Dyson defected to South East Asia and Vax got bought out by the Chinese - and Hoover left Merthyr Tydfil after the disastrous early 90s free flights promotion, Numatic kept production in Britain, making them one of only two companies still making vacuums in Britain to this day.

Henry is the face of the UK's vacuum industry and there is so many versions he's the only vacuum in the UK with siblings

The face came about when in the 1980s, the top brass at Numatic were in a consultation about what the new vacuum should look like, and out of nothing but boredom, one of the engineers doodled a face on the front of the vacuum. Someone saw it, thought it made an otherwise boring vacuum fun and interesting, and the rest is history.

@@VacuumWars I like the Henry vacuum. It just needs a power brush.

I use a Henry HVR200 for auto detailing, it's by far the best canister vacuum that I have ever used. As you mentioned in your video I found out about them while onboard a cruise ship. They are pricey here though compared to the UK.

Was always curious about this one! Glad to see it!

Please test the new Henry Cordless! I would love to see the results as it seems to me that is is currently the best cordless vacuum out there right now!

Noticed on the sale sites that Henry uses relatively little power for the amount of suction it delivers (aprox. 680 W .vs. 1200 or more for competitors).

Congratulations Henry , You Will Like America Handsome 🎊🎉🙌🏼

I like the length of your videos, short and straight to the point

Excellent! I really enjoy my Henry and James, quiet, powerful and so efficient!

Great review! In the Europe almost everyone uses canisters. We find them very convenient to use. Maybe it`s due to the smaller houses. As a vacuum enthusiast I still like uprights a lot. Only problem is that you have to use the onboard hose to get to the tight places and overall upright is bulky to use. It's a personal preference. I would definitely recommend to get the turbo nozzle (AiroBrush) for the carpets. It's much easier to push and pull + it does better job than the standard combination nozzle.

Lot of love for Henry's now with the new cordless. Non agitating head and canister style are a non-starter for me. I had a canister Dyson years ago. It was a great performer but....couldn't stop being a canister. Great video.

We use these at work here in Australia. They work perfect and I’ve only ever had issues with the older ones and that’s just due to age

The Numatic Hoovers are available here in SOUTH AFRICA to.. I got myself the Numatic HARRY model... exactly the same as Henry.. just green and a diffrent filter! Numatic truly gets a 10 out of 10 for me!!😊

The HUGE benefit of the Henry is that it is indestructible. They last forever, you can kick the crap out it and it will eat anything, and ask for more. Especially dust from building work that will blow up other vacuums. You're not a proper tradesman unless you have a dusty, beat up Henry. Also the long nozzle is great for cleaning anything above floor height, which uprights struggle with. Not to mention, it's great value money. Buuuut, I find it awkward to use in smallish spaces.

I've had my Henry hoover for over 10 years now! And it's still as good as the day I bought it!

That's good I know someone using one since 1998. We have an new one got this year cos all our other makes failed

When I had a canister vac I always carried it around instead of letting it trail behind me. I thought it worked great. Plus I if the cord needed to move I could just flick the canister around to make the cord move. The bag capacity on mine was absolutely pathetic though... but since I had hardwood floors I didn't have a lot of fluffy debris building up.

The Henry is super easy to fix too. Only a couple things tend to break or get worn out with heavy commercial use. If the switch goes, it’s not hard or expensive to replace.

We got the Henry to help with our dusty hair filled corners. i vacuum the kitchen, the bathroom, the trim, all the tables and counters and it works great! I will say that I do spend a small amount of time cleaning all the long hair that gets stuck to the brush head and we keep a kenmore bagged vacuum because the carpet setting and the carpet attachment just doesn’t get the ingrained hair out of rugs unless you attach the smaller nozzle and work by hand.

Thank you so much I’ve wanted to get a Henry but I didn’t now it was going to work

It would be interesting to see this test done with the air driven nozzle.

I going to need to get my older Henry vacuum out and try it with a Simplicity Volt powernozzle.The Volt nozzle is cordless and powered from a rechargeable battery pack.The Volt is unique that it has a suction booster fan in it.Too me the KING of commercial vacuums is the NSS M1.This is a VERY heavy duty all metal hybrid canister vacuum that has a 6 gallon top mounted filter bag.The machines motor drives a HUGE direct air suction fan.The snout where the hose connects is a trap that holds heavy items like coins,nails,pebbles and such.The Henry is great for just that very light duty use and home cleaners.The Henry is a very good machine-simple,no nonsense.Just need to get bags for mine-Right now using a K8irby HEPA bag in mine.It does work just fine.Also like the Henry hand wound cordwinder.No springs to break!!!

YES I LOVE NUMATIC PRODUCTS K YOU DO MUCH FOR REVIEWING IT. My favorite is George

I have wanted a Henry for a long time,. My current canister is a very old Hoover (1970s).

I'm a vacuum collector and prefer uprights too. Glad they are crossing the pond. Hoping to get a Henry cordless and or allergy. I don't think the Allergy model is available here yet.

Finally a Henry 😀😀

Very good review as always! I have had a Henry since 2011 and it is still going strong, I'm glad they are becoming more available here now.

I work as a cleaner. I use henry 200 every day. I think the other nozzle is better. You can use it on carpet and hardfloor,without doing any settings. And its more simple with that nozzle.

They are very good vacuums. Hovered rubble out of the loft and filled two hepaflo bags! The vacuum did it easily.

I use a proteam running vac at work. I added a longer better quality hose. It rolls easily.

Aww! I saw someone using it on KZread who was in UK, and thought it was the most adorable vacuum I've ever seen. Id love to have one. It would motivate me to clean more lol.

Can you do more reviews on small, corded canister vacs like the Eureka Mighty Mite Canister Vacuum?

Hey Chris! What a great review and all your points are spot on. I wonder if it has higher watts/amps that in the UK as we have restrictions, so I was wondering if they’ve amped it up for the US market? Ours come with tapered hoses, wider at the vacuum end, I couldn’t see if this was? There is an electric power head model and I’m not sure if they still sell it? That would definitely help in the US market. You can’t see a hotel or almost any business from office to builders that don’t use a Numatic due to its toughness. These things are pretty much bomb proof 🤣. The turbo brush for these are very good, but I’m sure you’d lose CFM with it in use? , but they are very good turbo heads.

Fun fact about Henry: it is used a lot in homes in the uk

Did you not post the video from the beginning because it sounded like you didnt have the normal intro you normally do

Just like all types of machines, vacuum or not, I think that canister vacuums and upright vacuums all have their respective places. If you live in a small/cluttered house, an upright would be your best option. If you live in a slightly larger house with lots of hard floors and maybe a few rugs a canister is your best bet. At my house I use an upright (that has a suited hard floor cleaning attachment), and where I work as a cleaner, which has 3 rugs and the rest hard floor, I use a canister vacuum because I hate sweeping with a normal broom and they don’t want to invest in a $40 dust mop and I’m certainly not going to😂

Reasons why this is Britain’s most popular vacuum

Is it quiet?

so.... Henry HVR/HVX200 or Vacmaster Beast Master? judging from your number it seems the Vacmaster Beast is still the king?

canister vacuums are the most popular type of vacuum in europe because carpet floors are extremely rare here and for hard floors theyre impressive

Auto detailing ?

Billy Darley Numatic / Henry vacuums are cheap in the U.K. There used to be a version with an electric brush head but it was discontinued, air powered turbo head is now available instead. Henry and other numatics come in a range of sizes and upto 1060 watts for the wet and dry versions, well worth the small extra cost for the additional power even if you never use the wet function.

I’d like to get one, but at around $400 I don’t think I can justify it

Gay Love In the U.K. there are multiple versions, and they are very budget friendly starting at less than £100 / $120. A third of the price of a basic dyson and sure to last many times longer. Plus anyone with a screwdriver can repair one at home with very reasonably priced spare parts which are available for every model ever sold (the design has changed little in thirty plus years).

I always wondered how good these things are. I knew they might be good because I've seen them around Atlanta in vacuum boutiques. It says noise levels of 47 dB(A) on low power and 49 dB(A) on high power on the Amazon page which seems good. Problem is they remind me of a Shop Vac and I'm afraid people will use it to suck up water and clean out the ashes in the fireplace. I can't be everywhere at the same time to make sure that doesn't happen when guests want to clean up when I'm not at home. I'm kind of a canister connoisseur. I don't think sucking up large debris is an issue as I've always lifted the parquet twister to get that type of debris.
