Aloha Lenny, I don't have that exact item, but something similar. When mine stopped working well, it was the connection between the end of the brush and the outer enclosure. I bought a new brush, about $10 and all was well. I think taking it apart to see what's happening will be okay. Mine didn't have any of those little nasty springs that jump out and fly across the room in it. Good luck, Betsy At 01:43 PM 4/21/2010, you wrote: >We have an upright Bissell carpet cleaner.
