Source of Numatic Hetty’s smile revealed

We tend to think that when we buy life’s less exciting products, like vacuum cleaners, we want a trusted brand, quality build and aren’t terribly worried what it looks like. That being true, it is hard to explain how the Numatic Hetty with its vibrant pink colour and smily face is currently the most highly rated of 340 vacuum cleaners on Reevoo.
As Horst pointed out on his delightfully eccentric ‘The Aardvark Speaks’ blog back in January, the designers at Numatic have clearly put a great deal of thought into the aesthetic appeal of the ‘female’ version of Numatic’s Henry, a vacuum cleaner available in the UK for many years.
The pink colour and unusual design certainly seem to appeal to many, but the Numatic Hetty also scores well for ease of use and performance. Reviewers comments about their Hetty include: ‘Had 3 Dysons and this beats them all’, ’simple, back to basics, powerful and reliable’ and my favourite comment from Jayne in Truro, proving that we don’t all buy products by brand and reliability ‘Prettier than Henry!!’
