My Vax went like that the other week and the belt had snapped that drives the brush roller thing round. Got a pack of 2 new ones for £4.

Give us something to go on, is it an upright hoover (and is it actually a hoover, or a vacuum cleaner of another make?)

If it's an upright Dyson they tend to block up in the sole plate.

If it's a dyson it might be the belt has just come loose. unscrew the panel round the brush and put it back on the metal rod. easy peasy

its a vaccum cleaner,upright,typhoon,was only 50quid.hmm cud be the belt,i have rang my catalogue where i got it from,4 months ago and they said send it back for a refund but i have to pack it up 'appropriately' for transit back to the factory,its more hastle trying to find something to package it in than try and get it fixed myself,and yes i am a woman!

Chuck fixed my Dyson.. he's usually right ;o)

If the motor slows down when you disconnect the hose then your problem is a blocked hose.

I am pretty good at sussing at hoovers but unfortunately need to look at it - there could be numerous problems.
