Discover how the famous Henry vacuum cleaner is made - his friendly face can be found in millions of homes, hotels and offices around the world. Made In Britain (2018) Season 1 Episode 7
In my opinion Henry and his friends are the best hoovers you can buy. Compared to some other brands which cost an absolute fortune, these are very cheap. They will last for decades and do a great job. If you've ever wondered why cleaning teams in workplaces always have a Henry, it's because they are superb and they are so sturdy.
This is awesome to see a positive company making their products in the uk. I hope henry brand is around for a long time because they build their machines to last!! That's a rare thing!!
I’ve had my yellow Hetty over a year and still performing well I love it my parents have a 12 year old Henry that just keeps going and going easy to repair and get parts for
I just rescued a Henry today from being parted out after I saw one being given away for free on a local Freebay group as a "spares/not working". All I had to do was replace the switch, which was very easy to fix as Numatic's industrial philosophy meant that they always used the sort of components that are easy to source from places like RS Components to allow for user fixing. Bish bash bosh, he's working again! This is how appliances should be!
One of the cheapest hoovers you can buy is made in Britain, makes you wonder if other companies are really telling the truth about how high prices would go if the profuct was made in the UK.
My 2 year old grandson is obsessed with this video and Henry hoovers, I bet half the views are from him haha, he has Henry and we are waiting on his little hetty arriving today
Great video I've got a George, I wish Numatic International would still make and produce the Henry hound and the Henry turbo with the electric power nozzle
I have had my henry for over a 11 years and it's still working perfectly. I have also got a Dyson V12 cordless Vacuum cleaner but build quality not anywhere near as good as Henry Vacuum Cleaner.
I have one so brilliant to see the factory. They have kept the machine nice and simple so reliable, repairable and don't need slave labour in a third world country. For some reason I thought the metal tubes would be made somewhere else so impressed they are made there.
I've still got an old metal Numatic hoover (predecessor to Henry), when they were made in their old factory in Beaminster, before the move to the Chard factory. Still going ok (touch wood)! Must be getting on for 25-ish years old!
I noticed on the BBC'S most recent Factory program of Numatic that more of the components are being bought in from abroad, Motors from Italy, Bags from Belgium, filters from China, switches from Cech republic. Nothing against poor Henry but I do prefer a machine with a motorised brush bar
They shouldn’t of replaced the head like they have with the cheap full plastic one as I think it doesn’t glide as well as the old heads do with the metal at the bottom
The current head they use is a Wessel Werk RD266. Wessel Werk make good stuff overall but i agree that the plastic baseplate makes it really hard to push on anything thicker than very low pile carpet. For hard floors it's fine.
@@jamesdanielsfanpage7610 Actually i don't know. I just know you can but not exactly where. I know if you have an original facekit from an older Numatic you could get it duplicated at a specialized shop.
More bacteria than a loo a well now am glad Henry has a bag to keep all that in and guessing now if you have a COVID positive person round there dead sin cell may have COVID on them 🥺😩😩
