Numatic catastrophic? This vacuum gets stuck in the carpet and delivers disappointing performance.
On hard floors, by placing the main brush in parquet mode, it does a little better than on the other test areas since it manages to suck up 87% of the waste in 30 s. A result all the same rather disappointing knowing that the majority of canister vacuum cleaners manage to swallow all the rubbish in this time.
On fine carpet, we quickly realize the poor performance of this vacuum cleaner and poor Henry barely manages to swallow 65% of the material in 30 s. However, it does better than the Hoover Reactiv RC69Pet, which only manages to suck up 57% of the waste.
Note that on thick carpet, a particularly difficult area for these little beasts, we extend the suction time up to 2 minutes. If at the end of these 120 seconds most sleds manage to ingest at least 90% of the material, the Henry 900004/HVR200-A2 does not even manage to collect 70% of the waste. In 30 s, he managed to ingest only 39% of the material.
