Advantages: Excellent quality machine, highly reliable

Disadvantages: Might get a bit dusty when clearing out the dirt

We got our Henry 5 years ago and it is still going strong. The only thing that has gone awry is the on/off button which is now permanently switched on! However, as we obviously don't leave the Henry plugged in constantly then it's not an issue - just means that we have to beware that when switching it on at the mains then the Henry will automatically start. Whether this is commonplace with Henrys or not I don't know, but this is the only thing that's gone wrong with it in 5 years, so I can't complain.

The suction power is good - you wil lnotice when the bag is full or if something is stuck as the suction deteriorates. Just unscrew Henrys nose and you can usually see the offending objects or dirt build up in that area.

We've bought a universal vaccuum bag from elsewhere, meaning we don't need to buy new bags every few months - just empty the ribbish and re-use the bag, so you don't end up paying more than electricity to run the thing.

We got several different vaccuum extensions which are designed for use in different areas, such as small attachments for small nooks and crannies, bigger ones for the car etc and the one you see on the picture, which means you can hoover up a larger area (such as the lounge, dining room etc) quite quickly.

Overall it's a good, powerful machine which is very easy to use. I'd highly recommend it!

Summary: Excellent machine, one of the best you can buy!
