I've heard great things about Henry vacuum cleaners so I had a proper
look at one in John Lewis. They're certainly well made but the demo
machine was fitted with a paper bag. I was expecting a cloth bag or
even that you'd just tip out the dirt from the cylinder. Do you have
to use paper bags? I hate the damn things.

Mine uses paper bags with a nylony material between the bab and the
motor. I am more than happy to pay the smal amount for bags from the
market for the ease of disposal of a (big) henry bag full of dust
rubble whatever. My (builder) brother in law has his wifes small Dyson
thing (she didn't like it so gave it to him to use) and I found it
holds little (compared with the Henry) and I was forever taking it to
bits to knock the dust out of all the filters (over everything else
around the skip).

I generally like the idea on 'cyclone' bagless cleaners but not for
building dust / rubble ..

Just my 3dth ..
