The HVA 160 vacuum cleaner, thanks to its triple filtration level, offers better quality of the exhaust air and therefore complies with this new regulation. With spring cleaning on my mind, I relished the thought of cleaning mattresses and materials with this vacuum as well as everyday cleaning jobs in our rather hectic household of two teenagers! Whilst an air purifier does help to keep the air clean and free from air pollutants, you cannot beat a clean home. From the outside, the main difference between the Henry Allergy HVA160 and the standard Henry is the colour; the Henry Allergy is decked out in a light blue colour.

While Shark vacuums may be having their time in the sun, I personally found that this Henry Allergy vacuum was easier to clean - with no faffing with filters and needing to empty every couple of days. The beauty of bagged vacuums is there’s precious little maintenance required in terms of cleaning, compared to bagless, which seem to need a full internal scrub down every week or two to maintain suction. You know that time of year, when you want to get up high and get rid of the cobwebs at the tops of windows or get rid of dust from the frames of mirrors or pictures? The own-brand bags are excellent; avoid the cheap compatibles, since they don’t offer the same level of filtering. The reason for this is that the Shark vacuum cleaner relies on its motorised brush for dirt agitation, so it doesn’t need as much suction power to clean well.

Henry Allergy tackles allergens in your home with real gusto, trapping particles up to 800 times smaller in width than a human hair.

We were pretty impressed by the Henry Allergy's performance, even if it is a little tiresome to lug around.

This let me dust into the depths of my radiators for the first time ever (very satisfying) and chase down cobwebs that were just out of reach. Storing the Henry Allergy is pretty easy, apart from the boring cable winder that is manual and takes a minute or two to fully recoil. The products will have batteries which exceed 80% capacity relative to new and will function like new. In reviewing mattresses for us for more than a year, she has become something of a very opinionated expert. Unlike with bagless vacuums, emptying is quick, easy and mess free, with no dust, no mess and no allergens tickling your airways.

Both my partner and my eldest son suffer from pollen and dust allergies so I’m keen to know if this machine might relieve their symptoms. This corded high-power vacuum seriously is good for all-manner tasks - from hard surface cleaning to piled carpets - as well as vacuuming up after serious DIY jobs. I measured the raw power of the Henry Allergy HVA160 at a massive 402AW, dropping to only 281AW with the vent open.Take a look at our catering design services and discover how our specialists in interior refurbishment work could help you realise your catering business aspirations with a full turnkey design solution.

I couldn’t fault the reachability under furniture though, it pivots almost flat to slide under sideboards and low plinth lines.

Virtually undetectable, these unwelcome guests easily escape even the most powerful of household vacuums, triggering allergies. If you suffer from allergies, you'll know how much of a difference keeping your home clean can make. The high suction levels really come into their own when using the nozzle attachments to get right into corners and crevices.Following a bit of DIY – drilling some holes and stripping cables – the Henry Allergy made short work of the mess, quickly sucking up the debris, including some fairly chunky offcuts of wire. And whilst it was super easy to empty, just shut the lid and all the mess was contained, then it can be thrown in the rubbish bin. Includes mattress nozzle, crevice nozzle, upholstery nozzle, dusting brush, combination floor nozzle.
