Abstract: A hand vacuum cleaner having a non-cyclonic chamber, which has an openable portion which is moveable between a closed position and an open position, and, in the closed position, the non-cyclonic chamber has a volume. A rigid porous member is provided in the non-cyclonic chamber. The rigid porous member is moveably mounted between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the openable portion is closed and the rigid porous member is in an in use position. In the second position, a rearward end of the rigid porous member is located exterior to the volume. A lower wall of the rigid porous member is planar.

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus comprises a cyclone positioned in an air flow path having a tangential air inlet with an inlet end, an outlet end, a cross-sectional flow area in a direction of flow through the tangential air inlet, a height in a direction of the cyclone axis of rotation and a width in a direction transverse to the height of the tangential air inlet. The air flow path comprises an air flow conduit at the inlet end of the tangential inlet having a cross-sectional flow area in a direction transverse to a direction of flow through the air flow conduit. The cross-sectional flow area of the tangential air inlet is greater than the cross-sectional flow area of the air flow conduit and one of the width and height of the tangential air inlet is greater than the other of the width and height of the tangential air inlet.
