    I always thought the brush was meant to be used on the carpets??
    I'm with you on this one, OP.

    naturally the 'man is always right' is the correct answer on the poll, you are wrong which implies you are female, you also have a girlfriend which is the real story here

    normally its brush up on the carpet and brush down on floors, BUT


    there is an exception, if you have a hairy pet (like a dog) then you need to put the brush down on the carpets/mats to catch all the pet hair.

    some vacuum cleaners even give an extra 'pet tool' with theirs which is basically a nozzle with a brush.

    Brush down on carpet to remove hair, for tiles and wood floors use a sweeping brush.

    Your girlfriend is right; the brush stops hard floors from getting scratched and also stops the hoover suctioning itself onto the floor. However I use the brush on carpets too because I find it does a better job of removing hair that way.

    Yeah but sweeping with a brush only rises dust and then every surface has to be wiped down ...ain't nobody got time for that.
