You’re happily vacuuming the house, pushing your vac along when all of a sudden it looks like it’s stopped picking up properly. The area that you’ve just vacuumed is just as dusty as it was before you went over it and your vacuum sounds a little odd.
In an instance like this, it’s easy to assume that your vacuum cleaner has broken and can’t be repaired. But — and I speak from experience here — that’s most likely not the case. The chances are, there’s an issue somewhere in the vacuum, hence the lack of suction, but it’s most likely fairly easy to fix.
