Verdict

The Numatic Henry Xtra HVX160-11 is a compact, bagged canister vacuum cleaner featuring a 620-watt motor, a 6-litre dust capacity, and a 10-metre power cable with a manual rewind system. Main characteristics and pros include its advanced three-stage TriTex filtration system with high-efficiency HepaFlo bags, a 72 dB quiet noise level, and a specialized Xtra toolkit that includes the AiroBrush for picking up pet hair alongside a dedicated hard floor tool. However, some cons are that its 7.5 kg weight can make it heavy to carry up stairs, the push-fit attachments can occasionally stick, and its high suction power can make it difficult to push on soft or plush carpets.
