Hetty is 5 star! - I'll never look back!
5/5
I've recently acquired a Hetty Compact HET160 and I LOVE Her. She's very cute,compact and girly... and Pink! BUT don't be fooled, she is not weak, she is powerful, VERY powerful. She has 2 power settings and although the lower setting is quite powerful, the higher is amazing. You control the power really easily by a red switch on the hoover handle. We have 3 children, a cat and a dog in our house, so quite a lot of traffic in and out everyday.... cat and dog hairs are a real pain for me.... not anymore! Hetty has lots of different attachments inside her little box and the brush enclosed is just the ticket or those pesky hairs. she has extra pipe so you can adjust the length/height of the hoover dependant on what job you are doing at the time. Hetty's handle has a bend in it, which can be used either way round, making high cupboards and awkward corners, nooks and crannies so much easier to clean. Hetty isn't too heavy either.. I have a few back problems myself and I do NOT struggle carrying Hetty up and down stairs, etc at all ... She has a good amount of power cable aswell, making the stairs an easy task and I've even hoovered out the car with her! You can assemble and disassemble Hetty really easily, she comes with a really simple set of picture-by-picture instructions, you can't really go wrong. Hetty has a lot of power but isn't too loud. My partner works evenings, so sleeps during the day, when I need to clean!!! He can't here Hetty... He doesn't notice at all. The kids love Hetty too. My 6 and 7 year old's love helping out now ... and because she is so simple to use/assemble/disassemble/lightweight - they can! I'll never look back now... Hetty all the way. I cannot sing this Hoovers praises any louder... 5 out of 5 from me!
