Speedy declined. This is an advertisement or press release. No assertion of notability. No non-trivial hits on Google Scholar or Google. No independent 3rd party coverage. The article is a description of a product range with no assertion as to why it is notable or significant. If the PR material was removed there would be no verifyable content left.

 * Keep. Google search for "Henry Numatic" returns a fair number of stories where Numatic is the subject, and I swear I've seen so many of those Henry vacuum cleaners around it's got to be notable. However, the only thing worth keeping in this article is that Numatic exists and makes the Henry, and it might be worth moving this to something like Henry (vacuum cleaner) if it's not notable for anything else.

 * Keep: Needs cleanup but a quick gnews search brings back coverage in reliable sources., , --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 16:47, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - that third story is also covered in the more-notable Telegraph. A Gnews search also found this 1995 article in The Independent (pay per view but an extract is available) which appears to have the Henry as the primary subject. As an aside, I'd also have to echo Chris's point above about their prevalence, at least in the United Kingdom. Dreaded Walrus t c 18:45, 20 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep: for same reasons given above. In the UK the 'Henry' has notability (even a fan club), and has reached iconic status. Little grape (talk) 08:15, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
