I spent close to €500 on a Dyson 4 years ago and it died on me last night (RIP!). But it was on the blink for months, ill never rebuy. My next handheld will be Shark, they’re supposed to be brilliant. For plug ins it used be Henry but the EU changed maximum wattage to 900 and it scuppered the power behind Henry which was 1200 watts at the time . The hotel Henry hoovers were all pre 2017 and will last a lifetime if cared for. My dad has a Meile C2 and it’s incredible. Would take the pepper off your dinner it’s that thorough!
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->You want HEPA 13. Most SEBO is HEPA 12 equivalent, but it's called something else. Henry Allergy is the absolute best for your needs.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the best bagged HEPA vacuum with a sealed system ->Henry. The red one, not the other colours. There's a reason pro cleaners all use them.
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->I’d highly recommend a canister vacuum cleaner with a dedicated bare-floor nozzle - the kind that’s just a brush with no wheels. Something like a Wessel-Werk CN250 or D 330 Turn & Clean. Both Miele and SEBO offer branded versions of these. These don’t have wheels and sit on just bristles. No plastic wheels and baseplates fo break. These glide over the uneven floors beautifully and strong suction will pick the dirt up out of the crevices. If you’re dealing with fine dust, bags are the way to go. No filters to wash, no dust cups to clean out, no plumes of dust. No, the bags won’t fill up instantly or loose suction the way old paper vacuum bags did. I’d strongly recommend looking at SEBO E3, or K3; Miele C1 or C3 canister with the Miele Parquet nozzle, Numatic Henry with the bare-floor only brush. If you find a canister you like that doesn’t have a no-wheels bare floor brush, you can get aftermarket ones either online or at your local vac shop. Most canisters use either a 35mm (Miele size) fitting, or generic 1 1/4” or 32mm fitting. Check out your local vacuum shop and let them know your flooring situation. They’ll be able to get you the exact attachments you need.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum recommendations for flagstone flooring and some carpet ->I'm from Singapore. I think good options would be Miele C1, C3, and Numatic Henry/James. You can even find a Lindhaus if you want. The bagged Bosch canisters would also be good options. The Miele C3 in Singapore is the 2000W pure suction model. Whether you want a turbo-brush or not, that's kinda borderline The Henry 160 would be quite expensive though. I got a quote from the distributor here and it's about $450SGD. You can ask the Numatic distributor about the various models they can bring in https://jeffsupplies.com/product-tag/numatic/ There's also a Lindhaus dealer (Supersteam) who could potentially bring in the Valzer or the HF6 Personally, I've owned the Henry, the HF6, and a Bosch GL-30 (roughly the Series 4). They will all do a great job on the hard floors and deal with your long hair. The combi tool should be OK on the rug, but you can always get an aftermarket turbo-brush from Wessel Werk/Miele/Numatic if there's a need The HF6 is the only one of the lot where an electric powerhead is an option (though I don't think it's really needed for your situation) As far as I know, there's no Sebo distributor in Singapore Henry's appear for cheap once in a while on Carousell. You can buy bags direct from the distributor for $40/10 bags
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for Singapore (non-USA) vacuum recommendations! ->Or get a Henry. Which is cheap in the UK and performs well. You can get a turbo brush if rug performance with pure suction isn't good enough. Henry uses the very common 32mm sizing for accessories
r/VacuumCleaners • Need some help choosing a bagged vacuum cleaner (UK) ->Henry or Miele for BIFL.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->Henry. Hands down and will be well under your budget for the standard one
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->Ours has put up with 8yrs of abuse and still going strong, as you say just change out the bags and he's as good as new. There's a reason almost every office/shop/hotel uses them
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->Henry’s are excellent. There’s a reason cleaning contractors use them. Looking for a vacuum with bells and whistles is pointless, just more to go wrong. Two dogs and cats. One of the dogs sheds vacuum killing amounts of hair. I’ve replaced the filters and the hose in 12 years. He’s still going!
r/dogs • Recommend me a vacum cleaner. (not robot vacum please) ->Dyson are the ones of choice, however, I cannot betray my trusted HENRY hoover. It even has the right name!
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->Henry as a main one and Shark hand held (something pet plus anti hair wrap ..can't rememebr) is a great combo.
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->Seconding Henry range - a no nonsense affordable hoover
r/dogs • Recommend me a vacum cleaner. (not robot vacum please) ->Usually a Henry or miele and you can't go wrong with those immo
r/VacuumCleaners • Vac recommendations ->Same. The only one I would ever recommend. Had expensive Dysons and cheap non brands. All blew up or became useless. Henry is still a champ 10 years later, just changing bags now and then and off it goes.
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->Henry 4 lyfe. End of story. But from the POV of buying for life, how many of the other designs can boast that something like 40% of all their vacuums *ever built* are still in service?
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->If you’re in the UK you gotta get a Henry! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
r/VacuumCleaners • Hoover Recommendations? ->Great vac, but Not for carpet unfortunately
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Dude is a paid shark shill. Take what he says with a huge grain of salt. Miele, Sebo, Henry or Lindhaus are the correct answers
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Just get a Numatic Henry. Relatively cheap, powerful and reliable.
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->I've never head of a vaccuum cleaner with no consumable parts such as disposable bags, unfortunately. I wish I had one, that'd be great! Well the tiny cordless ones don't have disposable bags - you just pour the dust out into the litter bin - but they have *nowhere near* enough suction power for a couch. Vaccuming a couch needs a lot of suction power. Most durable brands have good suction power. Numatic (the ones with the faces on them) have fantastic suction power, are very durable, and it's easy to buy replacement parts if something breaks. It's a British brand so probably available in India. They are expensive, but less expensive than other vaccuums that are equally good. Since Numatic is so easy to repair, a secondhand Numatic might be a good choice?
r/BuyItForLife • whats a cheap reliable vacuum cleaner? ->I have a Henry Hoover and it's grand.
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->Henry. Huge bags, wide nozzle so it rarely gets blocked, nothing fancy to go wrong - it either sucks or it doesn't!
r/UK_Pets • Pet vacuum cleaner recs?? ->Can’t believe I had to go all the way to #20 to find the dependable, REPAIRABLE Henry.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->+1 for Henry. If you can't find one look at what the office cleaners in your area use.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->This is 100% not accurate. Dysons are very poor performers and most don’t recommend them. That particular Kirby model 18 to 21 years old and can’t even buy it new anymore, and most people who like Kirby’s don’t even recommend them. Cordless vacuums are mediocre at best. This may be the most recommended vacuums among the general public, but for most aficionados, they know to stay away from the vast majority of these. There are a few good ones in there. The Mieles, the Henry, the Kirby is at least a reliable cleaner and a cheap option.
r/VacuumCleaners • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I bought an extra one after 10 years cause I figured Henry needed a friend. They both still work fantastic, even with two big dogs and two cats.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->A Henry vacuum (if you're in the UK) will outlast almost everything. They will clean your carpets, tiles and everything across the building site - and all with a big grin on its face!
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->That bastard can find trouble anywhere. Some chair leg or door gets in his face and he kicks off and ends up on his arse. Drunk manoeuvring aside, they're excellent vacuums. I keep finding them on the side of the road and they're normally fully functional or you can replace the whole motor for £25
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->The Miele, Henry, and Sebo vacs are the only ones worth a damn on this list. If you want a real BIFL vac and are willing to shell out, get a Lindhaus.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I have a golden retriever, hard floors and the shedding tumbleweed is quicker than I can hoover 😂 I have a robot vacuum that keeps the worst at bay and then a Henry for proper hoovering. The robot vacuum is a game changer because it’ll keep on top of the worst of it and can go on a constant wander
r/UK_Pets • Pet vacuum cleaner recs?? ->I find the Henry one useless but I also have COPD so I think the people saying it’s great might not have the same cleaning needs as us breathing challenged
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->After scouring this sub and r/vacuumcleaners, I ended up going with the Henry. Had it for a few years and it does its job, but it’s such a pain to lug around. Glad to see some cordless models made the list. Might consider getting one sometime since, although a cordless isn’t necessarily BIFL, I’d likely actually vacuum more with one. My floors may thank me lol
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Mieles are good but I think a numatic Henry would be your best option and they have a cordless model as well they are very durable machines and easy to repair yourself
r/VacuumCleaners • Vac recommendations ->Henry, funny face included. These things are unstoppable
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->There is only one brand of vacuum that will last your lifetime, it's a Henry and it's not even on the list. Crazy
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I worked housekeeping in a few different fancy hotels, they all use Henry. He’s a work horse and never breaks! Yes he’s not the sleekest but he’s a charmer
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->Henry. Always Henry.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I love my Henry and wish I would have purchased him years ago. I do recommend him but only to people who have no carpet and very very few rugs. Henry is amazing but he does not do great on carpeting.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->r_doood is spot on. The Numatic Henry is a great option for you. I use the Wessel Werk RD285 head he mentioned. It's excellent for picking up stuff like hair, dust, and dry dirt. It's outstanding for getting under chairs, tables, anything low to the ground. Comparable vacuums would be the Kärcher T12/1 or the IPC LP. Plenty of great options in the small commercial canister vac segment well within your budget.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum Recommendation ->Agree. It takes some amount of abuse and still does the job. I even took out the bag one time and used my Henry to vacuum a drenched footwell after driving car through a flood. It did a stellar job.
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->Dyson - we've had 2 or 3 handhelds. OK day to day for the hard floors and pretty good for carpets occasionally. Fills up quickly and does a better job than our cleaner's vac but eventually bits break. Normally just out of warranty and parts aren't available directly so I end up on ebay. I'm not convinced it's worth the price tag TBH Shark - I'll look at this next time for price point on handhelds Henry - we've had ours for about 15 years. He's done several renovations, sucked up all sorts of horrible stuff including garden waste. That thing is bullet proof and if it eve does go wrong, it's simple enough to fix Miele - I'm going to look at this next time as it gets some good reccos here Father in law likes his Vax
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->I have a Henry and love it. Works well on hard floors and carpet.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->Sebo, Henry, Miele, Lindhaus all make BIFL level machines. They're expensive, but 20+ years of service is common with these brands. Sebo machines even come with a 10 year warranty when you get them from a dealer. Can't go wrong with anything from these brands. Go to a brick and mortar vacuum store and avoid big box store brands like Shark and Dyson.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Numatic - we have Henry, always with a smile.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->Dyson in buy it for life , lol, it wont last till next year. Henry or GTFO.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Every so often at a UK holiday complex salesmen would turn up to try and replace the 200+ Numatic Henry vacuums they had. They would take them to a restaurant next to a beach, and get them to vac the mats full of sand. Many didn't even last though the demo.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Honestly I think the perfect combo is to have a robot to do the regular work and then a Henry for the big jobs.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I use a Henry hoover. They can handle a lot but still manage to get blocked at times
r/guineapigs • UK recommendation for vacuum cleaner that can handle piggy mess ->Travesty for Henry Hoover to be missing from this list. Truly indestructible BIFL
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Ah my bad, missed that!
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Agreed, Henrys are awesome! Super light, powerful, and dependable as gravity.
r/dogs • Recommend me a vacum cleaner. (not robot vacum please) ->A Henry costs about £120-£140, it is mains powered, never dies, very powerful and uses bags. Almost all builders use it, and for a reason.
r/VacuumCleaners • What’s the Best Affordable Vacuum That Actually Works? ->My Henry is smiling at my from across the room. Or he’s looking to get into trouble, it’s hard to tell sometimes.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Definitely . My sister has one and it's even better than my trusty Henry
r/dyson • Which vacuum should I buy? ->If they are available in your area: Henry. Hands down the best vacuum if you have pets.
r/goldenretrievers • Any recommendations on good Vacuums pretty please ->I bought the Henry and I regret it. It’s heavy, the casters don’t track very well, the floor and carpet nozzles are cheap and generic and the design is very clunky.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I love my Henry, had it ages and still going strong!
r/vegan • Looking for a vacuum cleaner ->I'm the UK a Henry £119. I don't know how you guys are spending $499 on it.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Numatic is literally unkillable.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Henry, or any of the other Numatic models. No question. They may look like a toy but there is a reason every professional cleaner here has one. They're so cheap in the UK for what they are because they are made here. £130 will buy you a brand new one, but an second hand one is a perfectly good option too. They last absolutely forever (I know 1980s models still in daily use), have very powerful suction, you can get bags easily, and the cord length is insane. The bags are big and don't need changing often. The only thing a Henry isn't so great for is deep pile carpet. Probably best to get an upright as well for that. To be fair though, I haven't tried one with a powered brush head, so maybe they can do long carpet well with one of those.
r/VacuumCleaners • Which vacuum cleaner for professional residential cleaning u.k? ->Henry. Just get a Henry, they are the rugged, repairable, simple and reliable.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->> I work in shops, and Dyson cordless vacuums are revered UK here but practically everyone uses Henry's in the cleaning industry and as shop vacs. They're nearly impossible to kill
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->FYI, they sell Henry's in North America (Canada, at least). These vacuums are indestructible!
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->
