Reply to comment by bbbc- in Thought my Henry was broken but just needed a new tool kit!! He’s 20 years old 😃 by Imaginary_Owl_9755

Downsides - really bad design, too top heavy so falls over all the time, stupid smug face will catch on every. single. corner. Then it'll fall over again when you pull it. Metal tube isn't collapsible so useless for cleaning under beds near walls etc. Plastic nozzle prone to cracking. Not actually that powerful so will be even less so at 110v

Mine doesn’t do that and it is very powerful 😀

I have a new one and I love it! I did a ton of research after learning about Henry on r/vacuums (where it is highly rated & recommended). Very pleased with my purchase!

Not sure what you mean by collapsible but mine can go long/short by pressing a button on the metal pole, telescoping it.

Agree with the top heavy but it's not a huge issue, if it's empty it's light enough to carry around, if it's full, it won't fall over.

As for suction, this thing blows away any Dyson I've ever had (240V UK).

I know you'll know this but for anyone else who doesn't: It's good to give the cotton filter thing a good wash every so often, the air struggled to get through when it's blocked and hinders suction.

You just correctly summarized all the things I don’t like about my Henry. But it’s still a very durable and powerful vacuum-cleaner.
