I have a Dyson which works a treat...if i could only persuade my long black haired collie to keep his fur on for a few minutes i am sure my cream rug would show how well the Dyson works, lol, but sadly my mutt seems to take it as a personal challenge to shed non stop!!! Yvette

I've got a Henry AND a Dyson . Henry is C1980 ..and still munching anything from dog hair to brick dust- wouldnt be without him, although he is semi retired now. Dyson does most of the day to day toil, Henry the odd bits ( the car, brick/plaster dust )..Oh and occasionally the decking in the garden ( which makes the neighbours look!)

I have the opposite problem - a cream carpet and a black cat. I have to wipe the carpet over with a damp sponge every week. I've also bought a rubber broom from Kleeneze, which is very good. AL

I've got a Henry in my cupboard aswell, I think they are just as good (if not better) than a Dyson, and much cheaper, mine was only £90 in Homebase. Carolyn

Well I can assure all you people about HENRY. They are brilliant vacuums. I have 2 at work and they suck up just about everything including childrens small toys,dust,dirt,mud in fact everything that gets in the way. I have 18 rooms and 2 long corridors to clean and I wouldn't be without my HENRY. Sue
