It does not have a brush roller. It has wheels to raise it off the floor a little and squeegee blade behind the hole.

It does not have a brush roller but it does have a flexible "blade" like a squeegee that seems to help corral the dirt.

It does not have a brush roller, although it does have a rubber strip across the bottom--and the dirt is sucked up through a hole.

There is no brush, just a hole sucking up dirt. It is like one of those old handheld dustbusters, with a flat top attached, that is removable. It's a strange vac. And I discovered that it only lasted 102 days, not 6 months. I can't believe it died in such a short amount of time!

Just through the hole. That's why it's awesome for hard flooring. The brush roller just pushes all the dirt across the hard floors. This actually gets it up. I wouldn't recommend this vacuum for deep cleaning of carpets. Just hard floors and quick crumb removal on carpet.

Not really. I've never found one that really works well. The old canister model was so much more powerful and sturdy in every way. The hand brush works better than other models I have used, but unlike the canister vacs, there is no power going to the head. The best suction/spinning brush action was in the old canister vacs. This is a decent machine for the price -- better than others I've used that are similar, but still not entirely effective. The suction is pretty good, though, compared with current competitors.

It has a crevice tool and also has about a 2ft. hose that plugs into the front which makes it easier to get to the crevices. No real brush, has a knoby thing that hooks on front. It shows the attachments if you click on info.

Not well at all. There is no roller brush, so you have to put the nozzle at the end of the rug and drag it slowly toward you. It does suck up anything in it's path; it's just not convenient or quick to use on carpeting. It's fantastic for hardwood but if I had more than my single area rug, I wouldn't be happy with it.

it has no power to the head you can only use turbo brush which does pretty good light duty job for area rugs for me. what I really do not like about this vac is that control buttons are very soft and I always hit them while carrying the vac against my knee and turn it off or rewind the cord or reduce power. Since I do not drag the vac behind me but rather carry it in my arm wile vacuuming i do it every few minutes and it is very irritating otherwise it is a good vac

It is a scrub brush and slides into the same slot. I used it during cleanup and it worked for large debris without clogging. Worms, if present will stick to it like glue.

Dear Melissa, No, this vacuum only has a brush adapter and carpet edge tool. However, it does better than the Dyson we bought for $500... Suction and ease of use is well worth the money...

No it doesn't have a brush roller but it still works well on my hardwood floor and tile in the bathroom. Great for smaller jobs. This is my second one.

The power from the vacuum runs the brush. Not just the suction. Works really well.

It does come with one that is vacuum powered so do not expect miracles. Had a Kenmore once that had a separate motor for the attachment and that would pick up anything. Hope this helps.

Esthela, maybe t there's something stuck inside, or wound around the roller or brush? Otherwise, I have no idea. Good luck!

Yes, it picks up longer hair and yes, it wraps around the roller. Just be vigelant in checking the brush and cutting it out, It is really a great little vacuum..... mostly for chairs, couches, beds...smaller areas.

Hi there. I have never personally had the brush roller stop turning, however, if you have a lot of girls in your family, you may want to make sure there isn't a lot of hair wrapped around the roller. I have to get my scissors out every couple of months. You may want to make sure the switch on the handle that changes it from air to roller brush is making contact. If all else fails, this vacuum has a 2 year warranty. I googled the problem and this is the reply I saw.*Brush roll not working after a few months because wires (that supply power to the it) located in the pivot (or joint where the base and body meet) of the vacuum either got severed or insulation scrapped off because of the constant rubbing of the wire and plastic.* The customer service number for Hoover is 1-800-944-9200. I hope one of these solutions will help. Good luck to you.

Correct. It does have brushes. after about 6 months of very light use (stressing very light) it has started to giver issues. The speed fluctuates. Does not reach full speed unless it surges. I would go with the current model or a different brand

I'll have to check the manual. My only problem with the vacuum,though, is that dirt and dust sometimes collect in the roller brush housing. Still, a good machine.

No, it does not have a vacuum system to capture the hairs... I dont no what u mean by getting messy, but it cuts very smoothly with precision without flicking the hair everywhere... I've used the t-liner trimmer n it flicks the hair into my eyes when trimming along the side of the zygomatic arch of my face... the lazer pointer is very annoying btw, I hardly use it n it seems useless...
