    A question everyone please.

    Sons shared house needs a vacuum. They have laminated floors downstairs in the kitchen and living room but the stairs, landings and bedrooms are carpeted, no dogs or cats but all 4 work in the outdoor industry so mud is involved :D

    They have tried freecyle but no joy and the cheapest they have seen was in Argos for £100 - everything is split 4 ways but even so they have had a lot of expense as its the 1st month

    I would quite willingly give them my Henry but its 27 years old and I am quite sentimentally attached to it and anyway there would be a problem getting it up to them - 2 trains and about an hour and a half :rotfl:

    So has anyone any suggestions for cheap but efficient vacuums pretty please?
    There were Henry's on hotdeals for less than £50 think it was a's
