Toys and Games Reviews of Little Henry Vacuum
Customer Review: Great Concept, not overly durable
Summary: 3 Stars
Grandma bought this as a present for our two boys, one of who is a vacuuming-mad toddler. The cool things about this: first, it's a cannister toy vac, not an upright, virtually the only one on the market. It really works, picking up light dust and debris. In theory, the suction-cup retractable cord and attachments compartment are really cool. It makes a noise but is not overly loud, just a low suction hum when it's on.
There were a couple of issues in practice. One was the flexible hose, which is made of lower quality plastic and rumpled early on. The plastic stiff parts of the hose assembly broke pretty quickly under the usual play stresses. The retractor on the top broke almost right away, and even for older children the cord seemed potentially hazardous. Second were the "ornamental only" switches -- the on-off button is actually on the side above the dust collection compartment, and the green and red switches on top don't move and don't do anything. I understand the working parts are all on the bottom of this vacuum, but my little guy in particular gets quite frustrated at what are apparently buttons but which are "stuck" (non-functional). I'd suggest when this toy is redesigned the non-functioning buttons be removed, and instead the actual on-off switch be made more obvious. Finally, the dust collection compartment is too hard for little people to get out on their own -- perhaps this is by design?
My boys still both like this toy a lot, and despite some of the flaws I'd still recommend it, particularly if you have a cannister vac at home and the kids want one just like dad and mom's.
Description of Little Henry Vacuum
Kids love cleanin' up with their very own toy "shop vac!" So realistic (not to mention adorable), it actually picks up tiny particles! Looks just like yours, with a retractable cord, front swivel wheels, removable collection tank, and faux "wall plug" (it's a clever suction cup). Bonus dust pan and brush included; all the pieces store neatly inside. A great addition to your child's playhouse, workbench, or kitchen! Requires 4 "C" batteries (sold separately). For ages 3 and up.. Includes hose, floor tool, extender tubes, dust pan, and brush. All pieces fit inside for neat storage, and the top locks in place for safe, easy carrying. . Because it offers gentle suction power, it offers more authentic role play possibilities. After suctioning up tiny bits and pieces on the floor, kids can remove the collection drawer and "empty the filter." . Pull on the play power cord to extend it, then crank the knob on top to retract it. Your child will love "plugging in" the shop vac just like mom and dad (i.e., sticking the suction cup to the wall). . Shop vac measures 9½" in diameter x 10"H, with a 32"L cord and 34" hose (with attachments) . Dust pan measures 7¼"L x 5¼"W; brush measures 6½"L x 1¾"WPretend Play & Dress-up Toys
