Numatic Henry HVR 200-12 Vacuum Cleaner Demonstration & Review

[@Slarti]

I just bought a Henry today and am very happy with it on a first go. I really like your scientific and unbiased demo here, it's refreshing to see such a good demo - thanks.

[@s4botager]

I hope this guy hits 100k subs, I have been watching this guy since I was young

[@faebrowne2537]

When my son was little, I bought him a toy Henry. He has just bought me a real Henry xtra this week! Although he wanted to buy me a Dyson, 💷💷💷 I said no, I want a Henry. I prefer a bagged vacuum. This is a great demo. New sub

[@DANZ_Aquariums]

Just picked up a 1200 watt refurbished Henry £80 since seeing them on here I had to get one 👍🏻

Excellent review, good humor with the accent too lol.. Based on your review I've just bought one and collecting it today :)

[@Starlight_creme13479]

Roger I love vacuum cleaners

[@catsarereallyfurryaliens]

Depends what floor head your machine came with. There are at least three I have ,rang factory in Somerset and they have had several complaints of difficulty using a certain head on thick carpets so they sent me an aero head free of charge

[@The.vacuum.cleaner.collector]

Numatic makes the best Vacuum Cleaners.

[@briant5378]

Thank you for another great video demonstration, Roger. I don't understand why Numatic could not figure out a way to store all three small tools on the canister. Surely they could easily add another clip and a little slot for the crevice tool. Or perhaps two ringed holes at the base near the back wheels.

[@ibaisaic]

Brian Torobin Numatic are primarily a commercial cleaning company and from the machines I've seen in a commercial setting, the small tools are rarely used, so on board storage is probably a low priority. The Henry is Amazon's best selling cylinder vacuum, so a lot of people buy them for domestic use, but they are not the most convenient to use. They have a lot of plus points, but for me they are a bit heavy and bulky for domestic use.

[@briant5378]

Aha. I see ....maybe I could make a few Euros by designing and selling a compatible tool caddy or "backpack" that would carry the tools! :-D

[@ibaisaic]

Brian Torobin Whatever you design, make sure it has the Henry face on it. I bet that Numatic wouldn't sell as many cleaners if they all were faceless.

[@pracheebapate6105]

Thank you for this useful video.

[@bobybotttom4288]

I love all your videos

[@davidriley9194]

I think the latest Henry’s are definitely much better than the 1200w regular Henry’s because the new 620w motor has made a huge improvement including Hetty like I have. The floor head also the huge improvement too than the old floor head. Much better with the new floor head and pick up better

[@davidriley7659]

With the rice, i think the head was "flicking up" when you dragged it over. soft carpet + high suction + hard vacuum head.

[@bigdoggetom6549]

Hey doge

[@vacuumtests9225]

That tapered hose WILL increase the suction. I have personal experience. My old Volta U258 (basically same as your Electrolux 2020 Super Boost) had one. It spinned the turbo brush very fast. Actually almost the same speed as my Electrolux UtraPerformer with 330 airwats of suction. When I replaced the worn hose with the normal hose, suction decreased and turbo brush didn't spin anymore fast as it used to spin.

[@tabzjr]

I just bought one today.

[@chrise8555]

Hi Rodger I have a tip that might help you in your kitchen with the Henry, the tip is try not to use the brushes on the floor tool.

[@ibaisaic]

c emery I won't be trying that as I don't want to scratch the floor.

[@AlexL13487]

@@ibaisaic I also don't it irritates me when the plate scratched

[@kayhanett209]

I love Numatic Vacuums and Miele vacuums i have one Numatic vacuum cleaner like George also meant for hardfloor/carpet cleaning. But it has numatic written on it. Its Numatic ct370.

My goodness mate you are bloomin' funny! Roger i wanted to say a big thank you but will go onto the Hetty review page of yours

[@imrankhankhalifa3824]

Q⁴4www

[@kapirk2244]

I don’t push the vacuum head as fast across the floor as you do. I was told that slower is more thorough, and going too fast is less effective.

[@levigaming-1]

Good ol HVR200

[@RJA_World]

Is it the same motor as the 160 model?

How good is Henry

[@marymoran3557]

so basically Henry isn't wort it ?? I was gonna buy hetty as I love the yellow but not sure now

[@rajeshsammie]

that was a good review :)

[@Landncomics746]

Nice.

[@LAD241]

I am pleased with my Henry HVR 200-12 and I like the new floor head but it doesn't like sticking to the carpet sometimes but I rarely use it on carpets and I tend to use the airobrush on carpets. To be honest I don't think it does the best job ion hard floors. I use it for my hard floors and it does about 90% of the job. Have you found your Dyson DC40 doing a better job on floors? My Dyson DC55 does a really good job on hard floors and it has a longer cord than Henry. It has an 11m power cord. I mainly use the Dyson for stairs and carpets. Henry is the main machine I use for floors. Also have you noticed the curved tube slips out of the straight tubes? Mine seems to do that.

[@ianjones9322]

# I work for Dyson lol

[@Mackeson3]

How about The new style head and the new style tapered hose on the older type 1200 watt Numatics ( Or even a George multi purpose)? I bet they would work well.

[@luke8K]

How may litres is Henry and would you know if the HRV 200-12 model is older or new then the HRV 160-11

[@ibaisaic]

Standard Henry has a 9L capacity and Compact Henry has a 6L capacity. The model in this video is older than an HRV 160.

[@mariadebono1]

Wow I like your videos you are cool

[@aferdita1211]

Seriously Henry vacuum cleaner

[@koalaspoilt135]

Most of Hotel in New Zealand use henry --- made housekeeper job extremely harder... I don't know why managers keep buying Henry for heavy commercial cleaning.. that machine maybe good for house..

[@ibaisaic]

Henry and similar cleaners are popular in a commercial enviroment because they are cheap to buy and maintain. They are not necessarily the best performing or most convenient to use in practice though.

[@M22OHIO]

Holland America Line uses Henry as well.

[@benewgillian6823]

I've worked over ten years in Hospital cleaning here in the Uk , they use only Henry. I found them very sturdy and reliable, with plenty of spare parts around . The only downside i would say is it's weight .

[@delegend81]

Hi roger, it was a fantastic video nice henry vacuum, just wondering would be very interesting to see a comparison of the old floorhead and the new one. Regards, delegend81

[@ibaisaic]

delegend81 I don't have a version with the old floorhead anymore, so I can't compare them. The Numatic Hetty video features the old floorhead.

[@connor9589]

ibaisaic i have got a very dirty hetty floor head without the parking bracket we could arrange something if you want as it has not been used in years

[@markboyles8191]

I'm not sure if I want to get the u.s version of this vacuum or if I want to get a hyla nst vacuum give me your opinions please

I have never used or seen a hyla vacuum, so I can't comment I'm afraid.

[@sbomorse]

I've watched and enjoyed quite a few of your videos. However, you never seemed to have tested a Bosch. Is there any reason for this and will you test one in future? My Bosch cylinder GS40 is the best vacuum cleaner I've ever used. It's kept continuous suction in two years. My Vax Air upright lost suction power after only a few months! The build quality of the Bosch is also excellent

[@ibaisaic]

+Samuel Brooks I unboxed a 90s Bosch on my channel but haven't reviewed it yet. I had a new Pet model Bosch a few years ago but I didn't like it as the hose was very short. I haven't been that impressed with the Bosch machines you can get now, especially as their made in China. I may look at getting another Bosch in the future though.

[@carsandvacuumcleaners9125]

+ibaisaic I would love a bosch athlete I'm going to test one in currys but would you get a bosch or henry

[@sbomorse]

+cars and vacuum cleaners I went into Curry's to test the Athlet. I wasn't blown away by the performance on hard floors. It was better on carpet. Definitely try before you buy.

[@carsandvacuumcleaners9125]

+Samuel Brooks right thankyou I may decide to get a miele instead as I can rely on them for a good vacuum cleaner but if there no sale then I'll wait or get the henry but then consider the athlete off I have no luck

[@lewisner]

Wattage doesn't always equal quality. I have a Russell Hobbs Power 1800 Watt and it's so pathetic I don't know whether to cry or laugh. At 16.05 you need to mop that carpet after vacuuming it.

[@carolespencerspencer9597]

Does anyone know how to slacken off the suction please, just got mine today hvr200 and it's just stuck to the carpet ! I know im incredibly thick 😅😅

[@ibaisaic]

There is a suction control on the curved wand. If it’s still hard to push, you can buy a turbo nozzle for it which is easier to push over carpet.

[@benjicheshire3426]
