Welcome To The Henry Vacuum Cleaner Guide

This site is dedicated to Henry the red vacuum cleaner and his colourful friends.  Although of course we mustn’t forget that Henry is also available in blue, green and yellow…

Numatic Henry vacuum cleaners are renowned for their excellent build quality and their amazing suction.

I’ve had a henry vacuum for about 5 years and it’s working as well as the day I got it.  It’s even survived falls down the stairs without a scratch thanks to the tough plastic build and metal hose sections.

Most other vacuums I’ve had have broken very quickly and none has equalled the sucking power of my red Henry vacuum.

What I love about my Henry vacuum is the rugged build quality and the simplicity of use. There are no fiddly parts to snap off and no springs to jump out. Henry is made of a few large, tough parts which fit together perfectly. There are no unnecessary gimmicks. You wind Henry’s cable in by hand with a handle on top. I’ve found that the automatic cable winders on other vacuums break. Every time.

Henry vacuum cleaners come with a variety of accessories, as well made as Henry himself. Henry looks good and quite simply, does the job he’s supposed to do, quietly, efficiently and reliably. He’s the only vacuum cleaner I would use and heartily recommend.

Henry Xtra HVX-200-22

Unless you notice the “Xtra” on Henry’s hat, or the distinctive red Airo power brush, there are no external visual clues to give away the fact this is the Henry Xtra and not the “basic” Henry. Read more about the Henry Xtra

Difference Between Henry and Hetty Vacuum

A frequent question is, “what is the difference between the Henry vacuum and the Hetty vacuum?”

Just to clarify, by Henry we’re talking about the HVR200A vacuum, most commonly seen as the red Henry, but also available in blue, green and yellow, and by Hetty we mean the pink HET200A, both made by Numatic. Read more about the difference between Henry and Hetty..
