While the WEEE doesn’t apply to individuals, the rules it provides make it easier to recycle your old vacuum cleaner..Under the WEEE directive, retailers must either take old items from customers in-store, or offer a collection service (regardless of where the old product was purchased.)

You have 28 days to use this service after buying a new vacuum from a retailer..

This only applies if the retailer is selling you a newer version of a similar product though (in this case, a new vacuum cleaner.)It also has a longer 12.5m cable vs 10m for the standard.

The actual body of the cleaner is bigger and heavier, too, but they both use the same 620w motor, so you can expect similar raw suction power..The range of accessories is better with the XL Plus, as you get the AiroBrush 140, flexi crevice tool, and hard brush included as standard.

As a result, the price for this model is more expensive than the original Henry Hoover, but it opens up more cleaning options.Being so bulky and heavy, the XL Plus isn’t suited for homes in the same way as the classic.. Henry XL Plus Specification.
