Abstract: The present disclosure provides a brushroll for a surface cleaning apparatus. The brushroll includes an agitation element, such as bristles and/or microfiber, and a hollow core brush bar supporting the agitation element. The hollow core brush bar has a cavity at a center of the brush bar located at the brushroll axis. A surface cleaning apparatus comprising the brushroll is also disclosed.

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus, such as a carpet extractor, includes a base and a fluid recovery system for drawing dirty cleaning fluid from a surface to be cleaned. The fluid recovery system includes a suction nozzle in fluid communication with a recovery chamber. The suction nozzle is mounted to the base for vertical movement with respect to the base and is biased into contact with the surface to be cleaned.

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus is provided with a housing including a suction source and a plurality of base assemblies that can be operably coupled to the housing. The multiple base assemblies can include different base assemblies for cleaning multiple surface types. A fluid distributor, including a base distributor, can supply cleaning fluid for a surface to be cleaned from at least one of the plurality of base assemblies.

Abstract: An extraction cleaner includes a portable extractor and a base adapted to be moved to perform a cleaning operation on a floor surface when the portable extractor is operably mounted to the base. The portable extractor includes a recovery tank assembly provided on the housing adjacent to the recovery tank assembly.

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus includes a recovery tank, a suction nozzle in fluid communication with the recovery tank, and a suction source in fluid communication with the suction nozzle and the recovery tank to generate a working air path to transport debris-containing fluid including air and liquid from the suction nozzle into the recovery tank. An air/liquid separator can be provided within the recovery tank for separating liquid from air in the debris-containing fluid.

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus is provided with a nozzle cover having multiple functions, including sealing an opening for an above-the-floor vacuum hose, aiding in removal of a suction nozzle from the apparatus and acting as a handle for the suction nozzle upon removal of the suction nozzle from the apparatus. A locking mechanism prevents the suction nozzle from accidentally releasing from the apparatus when the vacuum hose is installed.
