Henry Allergy HVA 160-11 Bagged Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner, Summer Blue

Product Information

I was pleasantly surprised at the weight of the Henry; whilst I wouldn't categorise it as a 'lightweight vacuum', my previous reservations were squashed. The second thing you might notice, or you certainly will once you hit a rug or carpet, is that the power can prove a little too fierce.

The Henry Allergy Vacuum Cleaner has a massive 6 litre capacity, as well as a long 10 metre cable to help you reach power sockets from anywhere in the house. There is a handy tool tidy on the back of the main unit - although it doesn’t house all of the tools sadly. Coupled with this NVR170 has a handy shaped handle that allows you to easily carry the NVR170 with the wand on top of the handle as per the below photo. As has been the case for years, the Henry Allergy HVA160 has a three-part wand: a curved section that’s home to a vent for adjusting power, plus two slide-on poles. Thanks to her busy family home, she's also well versed in what it takes to banish pet hair and keep dust at bay.This means that pet, dust mite and pollen allergens are removed from household surfaces more effectively. At the rear of the cleaner you’ll find some slots for holding the accessories, which will accommodate two of the provided tools plus the extension tube.

Upholstered headboards that accumulate dust on the top were rubbed over and looked visibly fresher as a result. Hair and fibre removal can be one of the toughest tasks for any vacuum cleaner, but a good one will suck up hairs and fibres in no time. Sure, there are few frills, and certainly no Apps or LED controls to deal with, but on suction power and durability, it’s hard to beat a Henry. Initially I was reluctant to put my cordless vacuum cleaner aside to put the Henry Allergy through its paces for an entire month.The high suction levels really come into their own when using the nozzle attachments to get right into corners and crevices.
