List of Henry vacuum cleaners
# List of Henry vacuum cleaners

Henry is a series of canister vacuum cleaners which were first manufactured by Numatic International in 1981, and are most notable for their human-like faces, which are often considered cute, on their bodies or heads. They come in a variety of colours, names and sizes, and have a wide range of additional tools, but some models in the series have been discontinued since their introduction.

## Current main-series vacuums

This is a list of current Henry models which are being manufactured in the main series, which means they have "Henry" or another name on their caps and a face on their bodies. Some models do not have names, and as a result, only have "Numatic" on their caps, and in certain cases other words such as "Micro-filter". There are a total of fourteen current main-series Henry vacuums. Some models have been out for numerous years, meaning many of these models' looks have been changed over time, but the parts, power and bag size have stayed the same.

* Henry (and Hetty) Compact (HVR160 and HET160) - Smaller and more compact versions of the standard Henry models, 6-litre capacity.
* Henry Professional (HVR240) - A slightly larger version of the standard (9-litre) model for professional and retail applications.
* Henry Cordless (HVB160) - A more compact version of the standard Henry model running off two 36-volt batteries, 6-litre capacity.
* Henry Xtra (HVX200 and HVX160) - A version of the standard (9-litre) Henry model designed for carpet care and cleaning pet hairs. A smaller and more compact version of this model (which, like all the other "compact" Henry models, has a 6-litre capacity) also exists.
* Henry Allergy (HVA160) - A smaller, light blue version of the standard Henry model for capturing allergens, 6-litre capacity.
* Henry Wash (HVW370) - A larger, dark blue version unlike any one of the standard Henry models, carpet cleaner, 15-litre capacity.
* Henry Quick - A cordless stick vacuum cleaner, much different to the other drum models. It only has a 60 minute battery life. 1-litre capacity.
* Charles (CVC370) - Larger blue wet-and-dry vacuum with a 15-litre dry and a 9-litre wet capacity which was also available in red, green and yellow at one time. In the late 1980s, this model and some others were also manufactured with a cream-and-brown colour scheme.
* George (GVE370) - Larger green "all-in-one" vacuum with a 15-litre dry and a 9-litre wet capacity which was also available in red, blue and yellow at one time. In 2015 the then-Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, was called on to help make several blue instances of this model when he visited Numatic International's manufacturing plant in Chard, Somerset.
* James (JVP180) (Blue) - Blue high performance vacuum. Originally Yellow but discontinued and rereleased as blue in 2019
* Harry (HHR200) - Green, originally released under the name of "Henry Hound" in 2003 and designed specifically for pet owners.
* Hetty (HET200) - Short for Henrietta, pink "feminine" version of Henry, introduced in 2007 to be marketed towards females. The face on this model is different from that of all the other ones' because it has long eyelashes.

## Current secondary-series vacuums

This is a list of current Henry models which are being manufactured in the secondary series, which means they have "Numatic" on their cap rather than a name (however, they still have a face on their bodies). These vacuums are often very similar to main-series ones but opt to not use the names for more industrial reasons. The PSP240 is also the basis for what the (now-discontinued) Bertie and Jack later became.

* PPR240, PPR370 and NBV190 - Red in colour and similar to the Henry Professional (HVR240), the now-discontinued Edward (EVR370) and the standard Henry (HVR200) respectively (however, their power switches are on the fronts of their caps as opposed to the backs of them).
* PSP180, PSP240 and PSP370 - Blue in colour with caddy tops and similar to both versions of James (NNV200 and JVP180) respectively.
* NRP240 - Green in colour and resembling a smaller version of George (GVE370), its power switches are also on the front of its cap.
* Nuvac VNP180-11 and VNR200-2 (secondary series) - Grey versions of James branded Nuvac, available in multiple sizes.
* NVP180, NVP200 and NVP370 (secondary series) - Grey versions of James branded Numatic, available in multiple sizes.

## Mops

Numatic International have also made a total of two mops in their line of Henry products. These two mops are the only ones they have ever made, and they are still currently in production (they also have an image of the faces from the Henry and Hetty vacuum cleaners on them).

* Henry (and Hetty) Spray Mop (HM40) - Red and pink in colour respectively, to match the Henry and Hetty vacuum cleaners themselves.

## Discontinued and low-production vacuums

These Henry models have either been discontinued or put into a lower production state by Numatic International. These can still be bought online or in electronics stores if retailers still have them and/or are receiving them from the shorter amount being produced by Numatic.

* Henry (HVR200) & Hetty (HET200) - Red, and Pink, base model. Originally released without rewinding cable as model HVC200, but one was added at a later date. Also available in blue, cream (early models),green and yellow at one time. On early models, the face was also three stickers that had to be applied manually. Only available through select stores in certain countries.
* James (JVP180) (Yellow) - Yellow, professional vacuum and high performance with a caddy top and an 8-litre capacity. Originally introduced in 2002 as model NNV200 and coloured purple, it was rereleased at a later date (and its colour was changed from yellow to blue in 2019).
* Henry Micro (HVR200M) - A more advanced Henry with a special allergen filter, introduced in 2002. This machine was made obsolete by Henry Allergy and was discontinued in November 2022, following an online sale which cleared all remaining stock.

* James (JVC200) - An older version of James which had a metal body. Gray, originally introduced in 1985 without a rewinding cable, and looking more like Henry than the current model does, it was later rereleased with a rewinding cable in 1988 but is now discontinued.
* David (JVR225) - Green, introduced alongside George and another green vacuum with a 15-litre capacity called "William" in 1990 as model DVR200, now discontinued. William was a lower-cost version of Charles that did not last very long before it was also discontinued.
