It’d be easy to underestimate a cleaner with such charming looks, but rest assured the Henry HVR 160-11 offers serious suction. The 620w motor might not sound like a lot, but this vacuum offers suction that’s up there with the best in its class.

I measure the raw power of all vacuum cleaners in AirWatts, which is a combination of airflow and suction power. This is a true measurement of power that lets us compare the performance of different models. Thankfully Henry’s integrated grab handle means temporarily lifting the machine isn’t too bad for those in good physical shape but it’s fair to say that vacuuming staircases is not Henry’s forte.

The HVR 160-11 has a short wheelbase and four free rolling wheels, which makes it a fairly agile machine to move around when guided by its hose. That short wheelbase makes it possible to balance the Henry on certain deeper stairs but this is a sketchy activity that we’d advise against. Four wheels and a short wheelbase mean the Henry is easily led around the home. - Oli Woodman / Our Media A true design icon, the Numatic Henry is a vacuum cleaner that’s loved by thousands – including professional cleaners. And all for good reason: it offers a large capacity, it’s well priced, it cleans well, and has a reputation for lasting forever. Here on review I have the latest version of the Numatic Henry. It doesn’t stray too far from previous models, but has been designed to meet vacuum cleaner power limits. It doesn’t matter which tool combination you have on the end of the Henry, you’ll always get impressive suction providing you’ve not filled its bag. Talking of bag filling, our machine typically gets at least a month of regular use in our large family home before it needs changing. The combination brush head is wheeled and features an adjustable brush section. - Oli Woodman / Our Media The Henry HVR 160-11 can not be used for wet vacuuming. If cleaning up spills is your priority then you should take a look at either the Henry George, Henry Wash or Charles hoovers. We’ve got every reason to believe them and have personal experience of Henry vacuums going on for decades.

It is possible to use a Henry vacuum cleaner without a bag and instead fill its tub directly though this is something that is hard on the vacuum's filter and ultimately its motor and should be avoided. Without a bag you can see just how simple the Henry's design is. - Oli Woodman / Our Media How good at cleaning is the Henry HVR 160-11?

Henry Hoover must be the world’s most recognisable vacuum and it turns out the latest HRV 160-11 model is also one of the best all-round vacuums you can buy. The Henry Vacuum Cleaner brings professional and versatile cleaning to all situations. With over 10 million Henrys made, and most still in use today, he really is the vacuum you can trust. Henry's great features make cleaning easy, including his super long-reach, trouble free rewind 10 metre cable, huge capacity and on-board tool storage. Carpets, hard-floors, cars, stairs, DIY... nothing beats a Henry for versatility. So much more than just a smiley face. Some products may be delivered straight to your door from one of our suppliers and these products will be labelled within the product description.

At 7.5kg including its kit, the Henry is far from the lightest vacuum to lift but the HVR 160-11 itself doesn’t take up much cupboard space, though those with a tight storage area may have to disassemble the hoover’s wand though and the tight fitting components can be a little frustrating to take apart once assembled. If your home does feature vast expanses of carpet then the ergonomics of a canister machine such as this might prove inferior to that of an upright but the versatility that Henry offers makes it far better for a range of tasks. Take car cleaning, which the Henry makes light work of thanks to its lengthy hose, strong suction and supplied crevice tool. Don't forget additional dustbags for your bagged vacuum cleaner so you can easily replace a full bag. Numatic boasts of having produced over 10 million vacuums over the years and insists that most of them are still in service.While this setup works well enough, experience has taught me that the various sections of the pole can become stiff and difficult to pull apart over time. To avoid this, I recommend pulling them apart at the end of each clean, and loosely rejoining them for storage. In certain situations the slightly limited articulation of the tool can mean you may need to move yourself a little more than with an upright cleaner but in general it’s a capable bit of equipment that has been built to last. Dialling down the suction can sometimes be necessary and providing you’re using the stainless tubes it’s something that is easy to do thanks to a bypass valve that drops up to 30% of suction power. A filtered release valve on the stainless steel wand reduces suction power by up to 30%. - Oli Woodman / Our Media Agile and easy to guide around the home; Lengthy hose and power cable; clever manual wind cable management; stellar suction; Easy to change its large volume bags; plenty of tools included; superb reliability and support Meet the Henry HVR160 Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner -featuring everythingyou need to keep your floors clean, it isideal for smaller households and small storage spaces.
