For dust between closely spaced table legs, choose a cylinder vacuum only after checking that its supplied crevice tool can enter the narrowest gap; a telescopic wand can help you reach it without moving the cleaner each time. Then choose bagged or bagless according to how you prefer to dispose of dust, and check that the floorhead suits the flooring around the table.
If dust collects between table legs or beside skirting boards, you need to assess the shape and fit of the detail tool, not just the main floorhead. Miele UK and MyHenry list crevice-style tools with their respective cylinder models.
If cleaning around the table is part of a larger routine, consider reach and tools alongside gap access. Miele UK lists an 11 m operating radius for the Guard M1 Flex; MyHenry lists a 10 m cable and 6 L capacity for the standard Henry HVR160.
If handling collected dust matters more to you than avoiding consumables, compare MyHenry’s self-sealing bag system with the bagless route described by Vacmaster. Neither choice removes the need to check the supplied tool for your table-leg gaps.
Start with the tightest gap at your table, then consider how far you need to clean from a socket, how you want to dispose of dust and which floor surfaces surround the legs.
| Concern | What to check | Who this matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Access between table legs | Measure the narrowest gap. Check the width and shape of the supplied crevice tool, including whether a flexible nozzle would help at an awkward angle. | If the floorhead cannot pass between my table legs, I need a separate tool that can reach the dust without moving the furniture. Around 33% of consumers put tight-gap access first. |
| Reach around the room | Compare the stated operating radius or cable length and the available wand reach; these are different measurements. | When I clean around several chairs before moving on to the rest of the room, I want fewer socket changes and a wand I can steer comfortably. For around 27% of consumers, room-to-room reach is the primary concern. |
| Dust disposal | Decide between compatible replacement bags and emptying a bagless bin; check the relevant filter-care instructions. | I would rather remove a contained bag than empty loose dust, even if that means keeping spare bags. Dust disposal comes first for around 20% of consumers. |
| Floor type and hair | Check the supplied floorhead’s settings for your surfaces and whether a separate detail tool is available for narrow gaps. | My dining area has more than one floor surface, or hair collects there, so the main head must suit that routine as well as the detail work. Around 20% of consumers prioritise floor type and hair. |
A wide floorhead may clean the open floor but still miss dust in a narrow gap.
Measure the tightest space and check the exact supplied nozzle list before buying. Consider a flexible crevice nozzle if the approach angle is awkward.
MyHenry describes a self-sealing bag for Henry, while Vacmaster describes a bagless system for Vortica Pet. The disposal routines differ; neither establishes which cleaner will fit your table.
Choose the routine you are willing to maintain, and follow the model’s instructions for bags, bin emptying and filters.
Bagged cleaning calls for compatible replacement bags; bagless cleaning involves bin emptying and filter care.
Vacmaster lists a motorised head for Vortica Pet, but a broad head may not enter the space between closely placed legs.
Check the floorhead against your flooring and assess the separate detail tool against the narrowest gap.
A UK product recall names Henry Quick Corded. A notice about that product does not mean every Henry vacuum is affected.
Check the exact model and any applicable identifying details against the UK Product Safety Alerts, Reports and Recalls service before purchase or continued use.
The bagged Guard M1 Flex is worth examining when a flexible nozzle and adjustable tube are priorities for furniture-edge cleaning.
The bagged Henry Home HVR160 is a tool-focused option for households combining table-leg cleaning with other detail work.
The bagless Vortica Pet is relevant if under-furniture reach and a motorised floorhead are also part of your cleaning routine.
These corded cylinder models offer different bagged, bagless and pet-focused choices for a cleaning routine that includes table legs. Compare each model’s supplied detail tool with your narrowest gap before deciding.

Consider this pet-focused cylinder model if its supplied detail tool fits the gaps around your table legs. Check the attachment list and floorhead settings against your cleaning routine.
No image available
Consider this pet-focused cylinder model if you also need to clean around a dining area; check that its supplied narrow tool fits between the legs. Its stated dust capacity is 3 L and its stated power is 700 W.
No image available
Consider this bagless model if working reach matters alongside cleaning around furniture; confirm that the supplied detail tool fits your table. The product name states a 2 L capacity, 12 m reach and HEPA H13 filter; check how the stated reach applies to your room layout.
No image available
Consider this bagged model if bag disposal suits your routine, but check the supplied nozzle’s fit before relying on it between table legs. Its stated bag capacity is 3.5 L; confirm that the wand gives you comfortable reach around the furniture.

Consider this variant if you want a pet tool as well as a bagged cylinder vacuum; check the separate detail tool for table-leg gaps. Its product name states a 3.5 L capacity and 7 m retractable cable, so assess socket placement and wand reach for your room.
Not necessarily: a standard crevice tool may fit a straight, narrow gap, while a flexible one is worth considering when the angle is awkward. Measure the tightest space and check the supplied nozzle’s shape before buying.
Choose by your preferred disposal routine, not by assuming either type reaches table-leg gaps better. MyHenry describes a self-sealing bag for Henry, while Vacmaster describes a bagless system for Vortica Pet; check the actual detail tool separately.
Yes, if the exact supplied head has suitable settings for both surfaces. MyHenry lists a Combi Floor Tool with carpet and hard-floor settings for Henry Home; confirm the equipment supplied with the model you intend to buy.
Check the instructions and safety information for the product, then look up its exact make and model on the UK Product Safety Alerts, Reports and Recalls service. A published recall naming Henry Quick Corded should not be assumed to cover other Henry models.
