can i wash the fluffy roller head from my dyson v8? it's got hair wrapped all in it.

— asked by Jenna

Yes, the Fluffy roller head brush bar is washable. Do not submerge the entire cleaner head—it has electronics.

  • Disconnect the vacuum from the charger. Do not touch the power button.
  • Press the cleaner head release button on the wand and place the head upside down.
  • Push the end cap up fully and pull the brush bar out. Remove the end cap from the brush bar. Do not wash the end cap.
  • Hold the brush bar under running water, gently rub to remove lint and hair. Squeeze out excess water by running your hand down its length.
  • Stand the brush bar upright with the closed end at the top. Let it dry completely for at least 24 hours.
  • Once totally dry, reattach the end cap, slide the brush bar back in, and push the end cap down to the closed position.

IF THAT DIDN'T WORK: For the Mini motorised tool, the brush bar is not washable. Use a coin to twist the end cap anti-clockwise, remove it, slide the brush bar out, clear debris, wipe with a damp cloth, and reassemble.

HEADS UP: Never put any cleaner head, tool, or bin in a dishwasher or use detergents, polishes, or air fresheners. Just water and a cloth.
