"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."
"Which is cheap in the UK"
"you can replace the whole motor for £25"

"It's excellent for picking up stuff like hair, dust, and dry dirt."
"Numatic (the ones with the faces on them) have fantastic suction power"

"Then again Miele/Sebo/Henry and really expensive in the US for some reason ... It's insane that Americans are paying upwards of $1000 on vacuum cleaners though ... I do love mine but it's straight up not worth that kind of money ... It's insane how much the same models of vacuums cost in the US compared to here in the UK"
"The Henry 160 would be quite expensive though. I got a quote from the distributor here and it's about $450SGD."

"Henry is amazing but he does not do great on carpeting. ... I do recommend him but only to people who have no carpet and very very few rugs."
"Not for carpet unfortunately ... the turbo head is really only meant for area rugs. ... If you have wall to wall med pile carpet you’ll want something with an electric powerhead."
"the floor and carpet nozzles are cheap and generic"

"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"
