Positive

I also really love the long cord since it means i can drag it out into the driveway to clean up the cars without having to hunt around for an extension cord. And, although I do sometimes have issues with suction on enviro mode, turbo mode blows all the other vacuum cleaners I've ever used out of the water. Plus, Henry's cheerful smile is really charming, and I often find myself looking forward to cleaning up the house rather than dreading it.

Quality

I can maneuver the vacuum into all the weird or low nooks and crannies around our house and I cannot believe how quiet it is. I can have a normal volume conversation while vacuuming. I am beyond pleased with the purchase, especially for the price.

Great vacuum if you don't have to duct tape it together.

Built like tank, so should be durable. Long power cord. Good placement of handle for carrying. Vacuum bags hold a ton, so no need to change frequently

Power

Disappointing performance for the high price

- Electrobrush attachment easily damages the cord. While I know you should obviously avoid vacuuming over the power cord, accidents do happen (especially because the electrobrush attachment is heavy and hard to lift over the cord while vacuuming), and it did an alarming amount of damage to the power cord the one and only time I accidentally vacuumed over it. - Bad exhaust placement: the exhaust vent is placed on the canister just above the power button and selection dial, meaning that you have to lean over the exhaust to turn the vacuum on/off or change the cleaning mode. It is really unpleasant to get a huge gust of warm air in your face/arm/leg when trying to adjust the vacuum settings or turn it off

Best Vacuum Cleaners ?

I have recently bought this vacuum here in the US and it's not as powerful and sounds like it is struggling to start. This might be because the motor is designed for 230V/50Hz but I don't honestly know. The cost is high. If you take the exchange rate as of today the Henry in the UK would cost $153

Filtration

Vacuum recommendations?

While it's basically a matter of personal preference between the two brands for most people, the Miele's do edge out the SEBO models on filtration when equipped with the HEPA exhaust filter. I think I'd look at the Miele Compact C2 Electro first in your case, but it'd be worth it to check the features of the other vacuums I listed as well in case anything stands out.

This is the vacuum for you.

I’ve repaired vacuums and robot vacuums for years. To say that I’m a vacuum enthusiast would be a massive understatement! If you care about filtration, durability, and repairability, Numatic vacuums (Henry) are the correct choice for you. On top of that, they’re made in the UK and have superb build quality. Sure, a shark might be cheaper, but while you’re going through 3-4 units in a span of 6-7 years, your Henry will still be performing as if it was new

Henry is everything he is advertised to be!!!

Henry is a great little vacuum cleaner that is easy to use, very quiet and much, much better than any other vacuum cleaner that we have ever owned. The extra long power chord, coupled with the long hose and great attachments, mean we can drag Henry farther and reach farther without any problems or without continuously changing outlets. He is a little bit heavy--with a low center of gravity--so he does not tip over easily yet has great manuverability. The suction power, even in the energy saver setting, is phenomenal and would probably suck the fur right off of our cat if we were ever able to get it that close to her! LOL! Just watch your knuckles if you hold on to the handle while pulling out the chord or you can end up with sore knuckles

Suction

Suction is great the rest is frustrating

We are used to uprights and this is not as easy to get around the floor. The canister does roll easily, just not as easy to deal with as an upright. Unless you start at a corner of the room, you are doomed to roll over a cord or have to push it back, again over the cord. Overall, I love the suction of the vacuum, but not worth the frustration

Not as powerful as the UK version

We were in need of a small vacuum for our RV and tow vehicle. We tried the tiny Dyson canister first. We wouldn't have bought it if the shop didn't have a 30 day return even if used policy. So then we thought we'd buy the Henry as I had one back in the UK, and the suction was very powerful
