Site Supporter Cheese Posted December 1, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2022 Do these "Robot Hoovers" do down the back of your sofa, and behind all the furniture? Do they fuck.

The Henry is for the stairs, the landing carpet, and the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always a Henry, every single time. Could that not be because they are easier to transport? Pick it up, put it in the boot of the car as they are fairly compact? A more traditional hoover might not be so and take up more space Our cleaner uses our shark and I'm not seeing what difference a different model would make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowack Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I believe that spare parts and maintenance play a big part in the popularity of the Henry for professionals. I'm guessing Shark and Dyson are buggers to renovate or repair on the cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works a treat. I've gone for an Ebac British made for British people. It pumps the smell of Gammon out whilst playing god save the king all whilst poorly dehumidifying your house.
