Wendy

The Wendy was produced by Numatic between 1997 - 2001, as a Machine Mart exclusive. This model is incredibly hard to find nowadays, as not many were produced.

This model was identical to an NQS250, but was green in colour and included a face. Oddly, despite this model being produced between 1997 - 2001, this model included the bold writing on the top (which was, interestingly, a single sticker), and the 3-piece stick-on face instead of the printed face.

Wendy was also Numatic’s first “female” vacuum cleaner, being introduced 11 years before the Hetty. When first released, she was priced at £129.95.

The Wendy was sold alongside the “Super-Henry”, another rare Machine Mart exclusive machine., although this one was identical to a standard HVR200.
