Hetty
200 Dry Canister HEPA Vacuum - "Hetty" (short for
Henrietta) is another of the Henry series of vacuums available
through Ultimate Garage. Like the Henry and James, it's also made
in the UK by Numatic and imported to North America by NaceCare.
The Hetty 200* (is slightly smaller than the Henry 240 but has
the same motor and filtration, 33' power cord and uses the same
bags. These are both great performers and an excellent value
(especially compared to Miele)....suitable for home (all
surfaces), car, workshop, light construction cleanup and
commercial/industrial settings (schools, nursing homes, offices,
etc).
These are simple vacuums (by
design) with minimal points of failure. No speed control or
autostart circuitry, no power cord auto rewind, no power floor
nozzle connectivity. The money is in the motor (5yr warranty) and
HEPA filtration. The quality hose, nice assortment of tools &
accessories and cute canister are a bonus.
This standard model is equipped
with the AS1 Combo Kit which includes a 3pc stainless
steel tube set (curved hand tube with air bleed to reduce
suction, short fixed-length extension tube and a telescoping
extension tube) and a 12" Combination Floor tool. All models
include a 2" dusting brush, 9" crevice nozzle, a
4" upholstery tool and an 8 1/2' x 1 1/4" hose.
NaceCare markets this as
commercial/industrial and residential. If you're a contractor who
needs a compact RRP compliant vacuum, go with the NVR 170H.
*Note...there is
also a slightly cheaper retail version of this vacuum called
the Hetty 160. I only offer the Hetty
200 model due to it's larger
capacity (2.0 vs 1.6 gallons) and longer power cord (33' vs
26').
