You are absolutely spot on about Dyson build quality. My cordless Dyson has some free play between the wand and cleaner body, a bit of wobble between cleaner and attachments that makes the whole thing feel a bit rickety…
It’s completely by design. They never actually fall apart. Look at Dyson testing videos. Vacuums are subject to a lot of stress in their chassis, so engineering tolerance into joints means the energy has somewhere to escape. Trying to engineer something durable without using a lot of material because weight is a big issue, is why they feel flimsy but they do actually tend to last a long time.
@@Olliebobalong That’s a fair comment. I’ve had my machine for a few years now and in fairness there are no cracks or splits or other minor ailments, just the wobble. I have had two replacement batteries from Dyson, but FOC, so that’s fair enough. I know batteries are a tricky component from the fact that my phone battery no longer lasts all day. I’m happy with the machine overall. At the time of purchase I didn’t expect it to function as a complete replacement for a full-size plug-in vacuum. But I use it nine times out of ten and only reach for my Henry for prolonged cleaning sessions!
@@robdavis5711 all lithium ion batteries from vacuums right up to electric cars are subject to the same detriments in terms of longevity as each other, but Dyson have about 18 years of research and development in rechargeable lithium batteries which is actually more than most other companies in any industry. Given that vacuums go from 100% to less than 10% or flat regularly which always stressed batteries out, Dyson one’s a risky do last longer than you think. The charging management in their latest models are incredible. The batteries never even get warm to the touch, something else that wares batteries out quickly.
Hi Roger love Henry and Hetty quick, still not available in Australia but the Henry/Hetty cordless barrel has decreased in price from approx $800-$1200 depending on model to $499 with 1 battery or $599 with 2 batteries. Thanks for always providing helpful information. Many thanks Peta
@@Deb.-. fingers cross 🤞 I think if they made a version of the hard floor fluffy head and a powered hose I'd be running to the shop lickity split to grab one for sure. Would be so good if they had a shoulder strap and a powered hose with handle, would make it even more versatile and it's already excellent 👌
I have hetty best hoover ever I had a shark before totally rubbish. Hetty is light easy to move around and great suction and not really noisy like other hoovers.
Suction is amazing on boost I think it beats Henry cordless and the commercial version. Definitely gonna have to get one I just wish it was made in the uk. I think I may have found the perfect cordless in my mind other than a cordless cylinder type
It is normal for the head to cut out if it feels any resistance. This will happen on some types of long and soft plush pile carpets when used on boost mode. Try opening the vent on the floorhead and if it still cuts out, you’ll have to use the cleaner on the normal suction setting.
it seems like its a very nice vacuum but the hetty/numatic/henry quick just dont really share the iconicness, joy and characteristics of an original numatic henry and all other varients of a standard numatic tub style vacuum
Of course it doesn't because it's a completely different product category. It's precisely why numatic release a corldess tub henry. What's so hard to grasp?
Just looks like a cordless Dyson. Such a shame Numatic copied. I was hoping they’d make something more unique. I still prefer the plug in Tub/Bucket style Henry.
Hello @ibaisaic do you happen to have an activator body and activator belt you'd be prepared to sell me please for a lovely U2602 that's revving to get going on my own Plush Pile? 😏
I bought my blue Henry in 2014 and love him for his quiet mellow tone....these stick vacuums are way too tinny / whiney harsh sounding for my ears ...love how they look but I won't be investing in one .
For the price I just can’t justify it - no mini turbo head for upholstery or stairs is just one example - that’s a massive oversight since that’s probably the best use for these sorts of cleaners. For £299 (usual price) you can get a whole lot of other good machines with all of that extra usability. I think they’ve priced themselves out of the market and the whole bagged thing will go over the heads of most people and they just think they’re paying over the odds for something that’s old fashioned - to top it all off it’s made in China! So Numatic’s long standing tagline of ‘Made in Britain’ is defunct. I imagine their workforce are pretty hacked off at this shift in strategy
Total rubbish. Need a new dust bag every time and if dont have one you cant use the vacuum. So will cost you a fortune . Be rubbish for people with kids and pets cats or dogs as you be having to get a new dist baf every 2 or 3 days . Costly every time and if you don't have them in the house you cant use your vacum . Not very good . Be suitable for 1 person flat or someone in a caravan . Be no use for a family house or anyone with pets . Better off with Dyson v11 or v15 as dont need new dust bag to use it plus it's a better suction on Dyson
I used my Henry Quick for a whole month before I changed the bag in a three story house with two dogs before I changed the bag. I made a video cutting the bag open showing how it had compressed all the dirt. I have a Dyson V11 and V15 and I prefer to use the Henry Quick as I don’t enjoy the daily messy emptying of the Dysons.
I have a large house with three large Akita dogs and day to day the hetty quick beats the Dyson ive tried so many now from Dyson to shark an my henry hound hetty quick duo perfect and no constant emptying and plumes of dust and endless filiters
Ordered Hetty she’s arriving on Monday by DPD 😊
Wow
Love how you match your socks with Hetty💖
Me too x
Thank you for reviewing, I was most impressed with the suction gauge testing. Have treated myself to this device now partly thanks to your review 😊
U
I just want to say thank you because you have absolutely made my childhood so I can never thank you enough so once again thank you so much Roger!
Gorgeous candy pink.

Oh she’s adorable, thanks Rog
I hope they make these available in the US.
Ooof! She’s a beast in boost!
Numatic entered a brave new world with these Quick models. I wonder how long this and the classic Henry family will coexist.
for some reason I like the Hetty quick much more than the other machines, I know its silly because they are the same but there is something about her.
It's so bad that they dont Henry or Hetty quick available for internatiolan market yet. I just want to have one.
Used to watch you 6 years ago when I was small
I have had a henry for 3 years now, ive only replaced the bag on it 7 times now
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video, Henry daddy!
Great video was stuck getting the rotary bit out to clean it because of a blockaged x
loving the socks - as usual!! 🙂

All the cleaners are the same.
Do you happen to know a way to connect a flexible hose with these vacuums?
Great channel!! Is it normal for the power head roller to shut off on high when on carpets or wherever the suction gets 2 high.Thankyou Louis.
It is normal for the head to cut out if it feels any resistance. This will happen on some types of long and soft plush pile carpets when used on boost mode. Try opening the vent on the floorhead and if it still cuts out, you’ll have to use the cleaner on the normal suction setting.
It really does sound noisy, and it’s a horrible motor tone, a real whine to it…
Brighton
I found a numeric nvr 200-22 and a hefty 160 het 160-11 from the rubbish bins my new numeric works btw not hefty so I removed the motor cuz why not
Why is the hose not staying in ?
If you’re taking about the hose in the main head, then it’s not staying in because you haven’t pushed it in properly before pushing the clip back in.
it seems like its a very nice vacuum but the hetty/numatic/henry quick just dont really share the iconicness, joy and characteristics of an original numatic henry and all other varients of a standard numatic tub style vacuum
Of course it doesn't because it's a completely different product category. It's precisely why numatic release a corldess tub henry. What's so hard to grasp?
@@verygoodbrother its not that its that the face is quite small and it could be a little bit more numaticy in a way
Time to buy Hetty Quick as a wife for my old Henry 200. I belive he will be impressed, how she sucks😄
Sucks well but whines a lot?
Agreed but I still wouldn't use it for my main unit. My Henry 200 is quiet enough where I could hold s conversation without yelling over the vacuum
Happy Halloween
Hetty, Henry aren’t they the same apart from colour?
Yes
hetty quick is good
I love vacuum
I love lamp.
Do you like how the air freshener smells? I'm worried about it having that cheap fragrance
Just looks like a cordless Dyson. Such a shame Numatic copied. I was hoping they’d make something more unique. I still prefer the plug in Tub/Bucket style Henry.
please can I have my shout out and when is it
I wouldn’t buy that, unfortunately they will probably discontinue the full size Henry Cordless now
Cool dude

In my home 1 bag will last 2 years
