Mr. Handy is a pre-war line of robots created by General Atomics International in the Fallout series. It was designed as an all-around house keeper but is also capable of defending itself. Although nowhere near the level of the military Mister Gutsy, it can be quite capable in close-combat, especially in case of late models, armed with a buzzsaw and flamethrower.

The Mr. Handy series of robots was first brought to market in 2037 as a general construction and maintenance unit by General Atomics International. Primarily used in the United States and Mexico (where it was the leader in sales after the Mexico City quake of 2042), the Mr. Handy was a reliable robot. An early bug that caused interference in the operation of the multiple arms was fixed with a hardware update in 2039, with no major problems since then. A key selling feature is the nuclear power unit (a model 238B, licensed from Calpower) and self-maintenance modes. Multiple Mr. Handys are capable of keeping themselves in working condition and are also fully programmed to perform nuclear fuel replacements. Secondary programming handles radiation cleansing after refueling.
There are at least two different models in the Mr. Handy line, as well as a military version called Mister Gutsy.
Late models in the Mr. Handy line are capable of quite eloquent speech. They generally have an affected English accent (While Mr. Gutsys speak in an American drill sergeant voice) and speak politely most times (although they sometimes mutter potential insults under their breath). Most of them have very cheerful personalities. Mr. Handy models that have been programmed as personal butlers are equipped to tell amusing jokes on command, though their "humor emitter array" needs to recharge between uses.
