PSA to save you some money
Does your vacuum not pick up like it used to and you've cleaned the deposit bin, switched out the filters, checked the hose for something that might be stuck, cut off all the hair wrapped on the brush, and STILL doesn't pick up worth crap??? Take the whole dang bottom plate off!! You might find something between the brush and the hose.
If you're like me, there could be a straw that your kid vacuumed up a while ago, and the fur and dirt kept getting caught on it causing a blockage bigger then your hand, and there's only an inch of free passage for the new stuff.
I'm grossed out, but I feel accomplished figuring it out. 😷
