For Sale: OT - Numatic Henry Hoover (As New)

Hello, I'm selling one of these for £50 collected (EC1):

It's nearly brand new (has been used 3 times), but something else (slightly more compact) has cropped up, so I no longer need it.

Comes with all the attachments and stuff as detailed on [ame="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Numatic-HVR-Henry-Vacuum-Cleaner/dp/B00008Z9XZ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=kitchen&qid=1269294001&sr=8-1"]this link[/ame], plus 5 replacement hoover bags (large capacity), minus the box. There's a synthetic canvas bag that came with it, which you can keep all the attachements in, or possibly the hoover (I'm not sure, I haven't tried).

Popular with office cleaners as it's reliable and has a long lead, and doesn't mind being used for more industrial style DIY clean-up either.

got one of these, it's awesome. the only vacuum cleaner to actually cheer me up

the hose / tube thing is long too which is good

+1 , my mrs loves hers

*edit, not the long tube thing

Hah! Look at it's face!

I've literally just hoovered my flat actually. I bet it would feel more satisfying if I had a Henry though. Look at it's expression, he looks really pleased with himself.

what now then? quick wank then early bed on a work night eh?

surprised there's been no quips about "how good does it suck" etc

can it "suck a golfball through a hosepipe"? @ Pisti

No, not on a school night

Literally bought a new vacuum yesterday. FFS.

bet it was a techy Dyson ;-)

Nope, it's some cheap piece of shit from Robert Dyas because we needed one and I refused to spend money on a good one. NONE of the ones in RD looked 'good'. They all look like fucking coloured iMacs with hoses. Fucking hell where's the Aussie vacs that would strip paint and not need emptying for 14 years?!

I, naturally, have 2. One for my desk (which is a mini hoover/ name card) and one for the house.
Henry = Win.

Haha.. repped for awesome.

more like a Hetty

Hahaha.. repped because I didn't even know about those! hahaha awesome

I used to use a Henry there when I worked in Daphnes in Erinsborough as it goes,
but we are as usual maintaining the male hegemony, wheres the Hetty??
boom! beat me to it.

Does it barspin?

i can't wait till i need a hoover and i have the money for a henry.

Nah, bagless is the thing for cool kids.

Nah, Henrys are basic pseudo industrial (use it as shop vac and it'll die) fashion accessories for downtrodden office cleaners.

This is the make you want for your home:

Best best best ever vac maker and yes, they do bar spin...

but it doesn't smile, what's the point of a vacuum that doesn't smile?
