Hi all,
Numatic have some new models and features coming for 2018. The biggest change is that the current compact model - the 160 sized machines - will now become the standard models. So what is now currently branded Henry Compact and Hetty Compact will be the "normal" models. It's not yet clear if the 200 size models, which have been the standard since Numatic's launch, will be continued. I suspect the Henry Xtra may keep the larger bucket. Charles is being rebranded as "Henry Wet & Dry". There is a new model - the Henry Reach - which includes an extra wand and a stair stretch hose. There is also a Henry and Hetty Pet, which includes the smaller Hairo brush, to replace the Harry. |

In addition, there's also now a Henry ProKit available, which (potentially) includes an updated AiroBrush, hard floor tool and mini turbo brush.
I say potentially as we managed to get hold of one today and did a video review, but it includes the same standard AiroBrush that came with the John and Lewis models.

Another new product for Numatic is the Henry Wash. I've not seen this for sale anywhere yet, but it's essentially a George without the dry kit.

Hi Mike,
The compact takes the same size bag, it's just a smaller bucket. Powernozzle cylinders have never been popular here in the UK. When you also factor in that Numatic come from a commercial background too - their simplicity is their strong point. It keeps them reliable, easy to use and cheap/easy to repair should anything need doing. All vital aspects for the commercial market. Adding powernozzles and such things adds more cost and more potential areas for the cleaner to go wrong. I can't even being to explain how popular Numatic cleaners are. It's impossible to walk through the cities and not see them being used in shops, hotels, offices, restaurants etc. There were previously powernozzle models available, as well as an optional extra that could be added to the older models, but these aren't available anymore and weren't big sellers. Some pics and a video is below. Chris |

I know for a while the Henry used a two stage motor, not sure if the model was any different or if it was still a 200. The Henry I have uses the 600 watt motor, it's very quiet but still very powerful, the price of Henry is reasonable here. If you need a power nozzle you can always get the Volt nozzle. Mike |

Canada’s Nacecare company sources many of its commercial vacuums from Numatic. They currently sell a 120-volt Henry (model NVH380) which features a Sebo power nozzle. See the link below:

Well Henry Turbo isn't as exiting as I'd hoped he would be. I'll stick with my full size Henry Xtra! |
