Running these analyses costs money. Buy through my links to help keep lights on! I may get a small commission.
Henry for work (in the trades), Sebo for home.
Henry is the best all rounder, and there is a reason they are the go to trade hoover. Shark I'd say are the best small light cordless ones, ideal for a flat or small home, but pretty useless as a main hoover in a big home. Dysons are great if you like to show off to people and never clean with them. They are so so loud, don't hoover very well and I've never liked James Dyson.
Henry. But not just your bog standard 600w Henry. There’s a guy on eBay who reconditions them with 1400w Dyson motors. This fucker tries to pull the carpets up if you stick him on high power mode. 100% recommend. https://ebay.us/m/twWQRw
I have two, one is a couple of years old (650w motor) and the other is a relic (1200w motor). Whilst the older one does have more suction, both are phenomenal for the price.
We had many failed hoovers before a henry, which we've now had for... fifteen years?! They're amazing
My Henry is 15 years old and eats like a new machine My shark is on its 2nd motor,3rd power head and 2nd hose.
