NaceCare HVR 200 Henry
Miele Classic C1
The Miele Classic C1 is a better canister vacuum overall than the NaceCare HVR 200 Henry. While both vacuums are easy to maintain, the Miele is lighter and stores away a bit better. It also delivers marginally better performance on all surfaces and has an easier time with pet hair. However, the NaceCare feels a little more robust, has a longer range, and incurs lower recurring costs due to its larger dirtbags.

Hello!
The NaceCare HVR 200 Henry was tested under an older test bench, so the test scores aren’t comparable. You’ll notice they’re greyed out in the comparison, with a notice “Methodology v1.1” in red at the top (the test bench). The red is an indication that it’s an old test bench. The Miele Classic C1 is tested using Methodology v1.3. This is current.
We wrote a side-by-side comparison back when both of these were tested under the same test bench, and it explains further:
“The Miele Classic C1 is a better canister vacuum overall than the NaceCare HVR 200 Henry. While both vacuums are easy to maintain, the Miele is lighter and stores away a bit better. It also delivers marginally better performance on all surfaces and has an easier time with pet hair. However, the NaceCare feels a little more robust, has a longer range, and incurs lower recurring costs due to its larger dirtbags.”
So they’re close, but the Miele Classic C1 is better for the reasons stated.

Thank you.
Why is the Miele recommended over the Henry when the Henry outperforms on nearly all scores?
