Love my Henry too. All professional office cleaners seem to have Henrys and I figure what's good enough for them... Also as a previous poster noted it has a long hose and lead which means you don't have to lug it about much (one drawback is it's quite heavy but then I think they all are). We've had ours well over a decade and never had any problems.

Hi


I agree with all the Henry posts. I have had mine for 12 years and still going strong. Can I ask though - does anyone else find him a bit cumbersome ? I keep mine in the cupboard under the stairs and find carting it round the house a bit of a pain. Or is that just me ?

Ended up chucking my Miele after the hose broke as it was useless from day once and I regretted selling my Henry prior to that. I ended up buying a Henry again. The dyson cordless is brilliant too for quick cleaning and the stairs if you can?t be bothered to plug in Henry.

The latest Dyson cordless V10 is very expensive (relative to other cleaners) but has great reviews.


I have been watching YouTube videos of it (sad I know) as I am thinking of biting the bullet and buying one.


There are three versions of it, which seem to differ only in their colour (purple, gold or red) and the accessories they come with - which may be important to you depending on what you want to use the cleaner for, eg there is a dedicated head for hard floors.


The stick part also comes off so you can use it as a hand-held cordless for cars etc, though I guess most of them must do that.


ETA: I'd be a bit wary of clicking on the link in the post above, this person has only just joined the forum and made two posts, both about vacuum cleaners ..... profuse apologies if the two posts are from a genuine poster.

Which and other reviews don't seem to think the Dyson cordless hoovers are junk!


I agree Miele are good -I have had one in the past - but to the best of my knowledge they don't make cordless models.

Love it Laura! I used to like my Dyson, but wouldn't buy one again because of Mr D.'s view on Brexit and the working hours directive.

Don't get a Dyson. We had a couple and they were both rubbish. We now have a Miele, which is great.

And apart from Dysons being useless, Mr Dyson is a strong supporter of Brexit. For me one more reason never to buy another one.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
