Henry W3791 George Wet and Dry Vacuum, 15 Litre, 1060 Watt, Green, Green / Black, 40 x 40 cm

Product Information

George uses a HEPAFlo filtration system, which is easy to access and change and fits nicely inside of George, helping to capture dust and other allergens from escaping into the air. George is comfortably the most powerful vacuum cleaner from Numatic’s Henry Hoover range, and with great power comes great suction. For smaller surfaces — stairs, sofa and in the car — George's Upholstery Tool does the business every time.

You can’t just vacuum them, you can shampoo them, clean up stains, and use it on the furniture, too… which brings us to our next point.The well-made robust nozzle, combined with the extra-long hose, means you should be able to get all around the car without having to move George around too much. So you might lose a little in regards carpet-to-pet-hair-removal, but you gain it in furniture-to-pet-hair-removal. When using George GVE370 for wet vacuuming, a simple exchange of the dry filter for the safety float valve allows any number of wet tasks to be achieved. All cautions aside, the George vacuum can clean your sofa so thoroughly that you will be disgusted by the streaks made by the first stroke.

That process of converting George between wet and dry modes isn’t particularly difficult but it’s an undeniable faff. The extra power and piping needed in George’s lid to pump water out has meant sacrificing the manual cord winder you find in the top of a Henry. This tool is great for shampooing and scrubbing dirt out of carpets and does a great job at removing tough stains. If you are allergic you may want to re-think your choice in pet, rather than your choice in vacuum cleaner.

This is the power level that both provides good suction input while simultaneously minimizing harm to the environment through energy usage. Not only that, but George also has a shampoo facility, which is great for reviving carpets as well as sofas.

When I’ve cleaned this with upright style carpet cleaners in the past, it sheds a lot of pile and has a tendency to clog them up. It’s the first electronic thing where I’ve had to keep the instructions close at hand should I need to swap it over, which is unheard of in my Generation Z lifetime. Vacuum cleaners can be upright (with handle and bag directly attached to cleaning head) or canister (vacuum head is attached by flexible hose). However, it can also be used to wash both carpet and hard floor, and can even be tasked to dispose of unwanted water if you find yourself with a significant spillage, blockage or leak. The vacuum floor head isn’t particularly easy to push around carpets, relying on suction alone and often getting caught on thicker pile.

George is a great all-in-one vacuum that is more than adequate at cleaning both dry and wet surfaces. This, and the fact that you have to plug it into the wall, mean it doesn’t have the same instant grab-and-go appeal that you get with a cordless stick. Now that we have given you the main points, we can get to the details… Why Choose George the Vacuum Cleaner?
