Advantages: A good compact appealing hoover.

Disadvantages: Requires bag to be replaced often.

A brilliant little hoover - when he wants to be.

This hoover has been in households and alike for years and will be for years to come. When it comes to hoovers there are only 2 choices - dyson or henry?

Henry comes with a full installed 10m cable which you pull out and then simply wind in which keeps it all neat and tidy and you only see the plug hanging out of him which is nice.

Henry dust bags are quite capable of holding dust and that for a couple of weeks and then required to be replaced which is a very easy procedure indeed. Replacement bags can be found for as cheap as £5.32 for a pack of 10.

Also in case of the hose breaking you can get a replacement hose for around £14, a cheap part to replace, however Henry is very robust.

Henry for a hoover is slightly noisy on my opinion and i find that i can hear him in most rooms when he is getting used.
However his suction power is very strong and he is more than capable for cleaning up any mess.

Why would you choose henry?
Because he is a small compact hoover, who fits in little cupboards, and does the job everytime. The little face on the henry is so much more appealing to look at than the average vacum cleaner. However, he always seems to be grinning and giving you a cheeky wee look.

My henry cost around £100, a standard price for a henry which came with a couple of attachments such as a small brush and a cleaner for doing in between tight places such as the fridge and cupboard. These do not connect to henry which is a little annoying though.

Have seen my henry even clean up spilt water without any problem, however i would not recommend this as remember he is an electrical item. His brother Charles would be more suited to this as he is a Wet and Dry vacum and he is blue and of larger size than Henry.

Henry is not the only one of his kind, as you can see with Charlers but you also get George who is a carpet washer and dry vacum so might be better for different jobs, however Henry works perfect for general hoovering jobs.

Summary: A good little hoover for the money you pay.

Welcome to Dooyoo. Good opinion here. For the purpose of Dooyoo though that informs future buyers a lot more info should be added here such as:

Noise factor
Weight
C ord length
Capacity of the dirt bag and replacement cost.
Cost of the Henry machine you have
Do the attachments store on the machine and what are they?
General performance

He nry is a dry only vacuum cleaner - he should never be allowed to pick up spills unless there is a recovery bucket in place - that job comes down to Charles who is a wet and dry vacuum (usually blue in colour and bigger) or George who is a 3 in 1 carpet washer and dry vacuum.

If you update your review with a lot more info or need help please message me.
