    Henry went crack/pop

    Rutger, I'd say,your switch went out by what you have said.To be safe,I'd not run the machine until you have it looked at.Take it to a autherized Henry repair shop. Good luck.Henry's are great machines,very well built.I see them used on the show's on BBC. Michael

    unusual items found when opening up vacuums

    I found... in a Hoover 27 from ebay,in the cloth bag full of dirt;was $101.00 dollars.It was wrapped with a rubber band in a neat roll.You could tell it had been there for quite sometime.It paid for the vacuum and the shipping.Now,I look in all the bags and filter when I purchase vacuums from ebay.
