Is Henry up to the task?

[dawsirn]

Currently on the look out for a wall chaser/dust extraction combo at the moment, but obviously prices are still sky high.

Narrowed wall chaser down to either makita sg1250 or the metabo MFE30 but but not sure about the vacuum.

Obviously it would be nice to have a proper dust extractor with auto start and all the rest of it but have a perfectly good henry numatic.
Now is henry up to the task of keeping occupied properties dust free or not? and Also how quickly do the bags fill up if using it to chase?

any advice would be greatly welcomed as i'm on the verge of spending a lot of money!

cheers

Used a henry with a wall chaser many times, the 230 v henry has alot more guts than a 110! I found a 230v hoover perfect but a 110 couldn't cope with the rate of dust! I found the hose on a henry a little too small to go round the spout of the chaser, but that could have been down to the specific chaser I had! Hope that helps in some way!

Aye .. well this is absolutely true; Tidyboiler has a Hetty and I have a Henry and I've noticed Henry always has a big smile.
