Got both Henry & George. Never found any issue with bag fit on either - or availability - & this is the second Henry I've had, the first eventually dying of old age & hard use. Amazing how much damage they can take & keep on going.

If you're after a vac to do the sort of stuff to your p&j that your valeter is doing then you would be best asking his advice, but, as you appear to have found out with your previous vacs, the truth with most tools is that I don't think you'll get anything good cheap!

Henry and George, you won't go wrong with them. You don't need to use the bags, I've had mine for over 3 years and have never used any bags and their still going strong.
Also have a Polti 2400 steam cleaner and it does a great job on interiors and engine bays. Polti are one of the better makes of steamers on the market so to call them crap is a bit much.

You just need to know how to use them correctly mate. Same goes for wet/vacs and which chemicals you choose to use.
