Everyone talks of Miele or Bosch etc. when talk of vacuum cleaners. The Numatic Henry is here truly an unknown and unrecognized size. I previously owned a bagless vacuum cleaner whose performance was rather disappointing. The filter was too quick and the suction force was thus considerably after. So I returned after long consideration to the bag vacuum cleaner and was not disappointed. The vacuum cleaner has a very good suction power, which is particularly noticeable in the car. In addition, the anthers are very large and also serve as a kind of filter, because they consist of a fleece. The opening of the sucker is very very painless. The hose is very long, as the connection string. In addition, the cleaner always starts in "eco mode" with a capacity of only 1000Watt what actually completely sufficient. He can, however, also switch on 1200Watt what you actually rarely needed. So you should not be blinded by absolutely pure wattage, since the little statements about the suction power. My old sucker had even 2500W, which is however not much noticed. Another advantage of the low power is a relatively comfortable level during operation, you can still cry without talking to a fellow man. No comparison with the screeching sound of bagless predecessor! The vacuum cleaner is not cheap, but given the necessary performance and quality and the relatively favorable filter bags (10 pieces approx 13) offers value for money. And do not forget, no other vacuum cleaner smiles you so fond of as Henry, if you take him out of the closet: o)
