What hoover have you got

[cask is best]

I'm beginging to think they are all naff.In four years had a Dyson. Use to be good until they went to China. Vax lasted a year and couldn't stand it any more broken belt twice and lost suction. Now had a hoover which i find i keep bending down and picking up bits of fluff that surely it should pick up.

Thinking of trying a Henry. Anyone any experiance of them. A lot of builders have them so they can't be that bad.

Help.

I don't have one, the wife has a Dyson. We have a Henry at work and the cleaner hates it.

all our fitters at work have Henrys and they swear by them. My mum will only ever have a henry aswell

+1 for the Henry. Ours just keeps going.

We've got a Dyson from before manufacturing went overseas, it's OK but the filters need washing and it's getting harder to get replacements.
I know a lot of peeps swear by (not at) their Henry though.

Swinging me towards a Henry. Seen em for 118 from a local family run shop.

Dyson :thumb:

they provided all sorts of parts for free when ours failed, and it's not missed a beat since then.

I put some new non-dyson filters in it recently from ebay and the suction is fearsome! It can be a good workout pushing it around!!

we have two dysons at home - an upstairs dyson and a downstairs dyson because thats how we roll! they're pre-china ones though and still going strong. at work (on a working farm) we have a henry and its great - handles everything from dust to cow muck!

Miele Cat and Dog, because we have cats and dogs. best vacuum cleaner we have ever had.

We have a Dyson, it's about 8-10 years old but going strong, and it's picked up a lot of s**t when we have been decorating :thumb:

My mothers Henry has lasted for years and still working strong. Has to be close to 10 years old now. There is a draper Hoover available with a power tool auto switch just I case you have any sanding or DIY to do as well, I had one rigged up to my festool orbital and it gave trouble free daily use for three years until I stopped making furniture, in a household it would be relatively light duty compared to what I put it through!

Had a samsung upright for 3 years now and the only thing that's ever gone wrong is the rotating brush got snagged on a mat and snapped the belt. Was told in the spares shop to keep the filters clean and would last a long time, only downside is the tool hose is a bit short.

Another Henry here. Bought it after a couple of expensive/disappointing Dyson failures. Had it for many years trouble-free (so far).

I have a Vax steamer and hoover. Both 7 months old. Both broke this week. Steamer broken no user part to replace, only a 6 month warranty!! Vacuum has taken 5 belts so far since purchase. Good when it works but otherwise very noisy and breaks just when you need it.

Had a Henry at the pub, used very day on a large pub up and down stairs.. no problems in 4 years...

It also has a face.. which is nice.

my family had a cleaning business (new house builds) we used a henry without bags just the top filter , it would run for 2-3 hours a day 6 days a week for 3 years .when we folded the business and i think its still working after another 10 years of home use. cant beat that for just over £100. it even fell down a flight of stairs and was still running it got to the bottom :shock:

i have been given dysons over the years(second hand) they are cr*p and vax sucks(not in a good way)

 

[Titus A Duxass]

Another +1 for Henry here.

Got a purple Dyson DC25..... It's a bastard tho if your using the extendable wand, as hard as you pull it out it's fighting you to retract... :evil: :evil:

As said in earlier posts... Dysons were good before the grabbing bastard of an owner moved most if not all to China or wherever it is nowadays!!

Wouldn't buy another and this is our third in around 18 years.. DC01 was the best.. :thumb:
