I've been aware of the Henry brand since the 90's when I used them in my commercial resort housekeeping business throughout the NT.

Always reliable both in performance and service, so it was a no brainer to buy a Henry vac for home.

I have had the good old Henry Vacuum for probably 30 years, and my family longer than that. They are bulletproof proof, however took me a very long time to decide to purchase the Quick as it’s so much more expensive. When I mentioned it to other people however they didn’t think it was too bad considering the price of competitors on the market. Still I was very cautious. In the end I was so fed up of using big Henry to vacuum the house, to turn around an hour later to find dirt from the dog on the floor again, so I bit the bullet and ordered Henry Quick and I am not disappointed. It’s everything I hoped it would be, but was surprised with its weight so won’t be letting grandma have a go! You’ll need some decent biceps to keep it going, but it will keep going and going. I rarely have to charge it and I use it a lot! It’s awesome and I love it. It could replace my Henry vacuums, but I am too loyal so will find room for them all!!

Forget washing filters, unplugging pipes and dust/hair everywhere. The Henry Quick changed our lives. What’s more is that the handle extension makes it a doddle to use with arthritic thumbs.

not too heavy not to light does the job.

I've owned stick vacuums across three of the big-name brands, so I don't say this lightly: the Quick Henry outclasses them all, and it does so four ways.

First, the battery. It runs 50% longer than anything else I've owned — which in stick-vacuum terms is the difference between finishing the whole house and standing in the hallway holding a dead wand and a grudge.

Second, the suction, also 50% stronger. This machine doesn't coax dirt from the carpet, it repossesses it.

Third, the dust bags — an underrated stroke of civilisation. No wrestling a clogged canister over the bin while a cloud of yesterday's floor rises up to meet your face. Bag out, bag binned, hands clean, dignity intact.

And fourth, the price sits in the sensible middle: not the cheapest, not the dearest, but squarely at the point where you're paying for engineering rather than for the logo. Worth every dollar.

Three brands taught me what a stick vacuum should be. The Quick Henry is the first one that actually is.
