About this deal

Having seen the crazy price of Henry's when "on offer" I felt like I needed to post this hehe.

Does everything the Henry does but also has a wet vac too. Comes with spare bags and free delivery for more than half off the price of a Henry when it's on offer.

DONT PAY MORE FOR A VAC WITH A SMILE LOL.

Seriously though I own this vac and it's great. It has a very strong suck and i used it to clear out a garage and it didn't lose suction until the bag was full. Great vac for the price and UK made.

Easy choice personally when it comes to a 130 Henry or this

    I'm in the market for a vacuum cleaner for my home. What's the difference between these wet/dry vacs and the household cleaners? As far as I see, these are cheaper with more functions. Am I missing something like the exhaust being dusty or something?

    Exhaust has a filter so nothing to worry about. They use a bag and don't have a bag less motor so the tech is quite simple. That's my guess. They don't have the fancy spinner on the collector etc. This is more of a utility vac. Good for clean up after decorating etc. Can attach to a sander etc. I'd suggest a shark for home personally as the bristles are good for carpets etc. These are good for dusty places like a garage or workshop

    Yes it should be. However I dunno how well the bag would last if you are sucking up sludge. The vac comes with 3 bags though and the filter is really easy to remove and clean. For the price should be worth a go. I used to clean mostly dust and small gravel from a garage floor personally. Not tried the water sucking yet.

    Almost identical Parkside version available at Lidl for £39.99 with 3 year warantee from Sunday 28th . Probably made in the same China factory . I have had one for the last 4 years bought for £10 in a Lidl sale . Great Vac but a bit noisy , the air blower take off port is useful for leaves in autumn !

    Yeah looks similar. I would say Wessex are a British company not that I really care but I know some do hehe. Plus this comes with free delivery to your door for the same price. With the app 10% off it is cheaper also. Plus I think there's 5% off if you join the Toolstation club.

    I have a sump pump and sump chamber in the garden for flooding reasons,would this be powerful enough to empty the bottom of sump chamber,of small stones and muck.

    There's also an extra 10% off for your first order using the app I believe. Plus 5% off if you sign up to the Toolstation club. (edited)

    This 10% seems to have expired. I just ordered on the app (after just registering) for the first time and it's no where to be seen. All websites just say no code needed so I guess they've stopped doing it. Either that or because it's already 20% off it's not eligable. Good price anyway

    Wessex may be a British registerd company but I bet my last £1 that when it arrives it has a made in China label . These are mass produced in China and UK retailers buy a batch and pay a bit extra to have them finished in their own colours and branding .
    Even with all the discounts it dosn;t match the Lidl price and their's comes with a 3 year warranty , I believe Toolstation's is only 1 year .

    In-store only too, while stocks last. But yeah it's cheaper. I've used this one personally and it's a very good vac so it's up to the buyer to decide. Reviews are very good too. (edited)

    1300w motor so quite a standard rating for a small workshop/ wet dry vacuum would prefer a higher wattage not too much larger any info?
    RavenDW's avatar
    The Titan vacs at Screwfix go up to 1500w but you're looking at £100. (edited)
