How do I keep bristles straight and pointing outwards? Mine get flattened down.

Did you wet it? It is not made for that. I clean mine with rubbing alcohol or brush cleaner and have had no problem. Hope this helps and good luck,

slight curve that works well however after using for 1 month bristles remain stiff as a floor brush,attempting to lather brush from bar soap sends lather in all directions

Perhaps the brush is bent and is not snug in the sweeper. I'm sure you can straighten it by hand. I notice the brush pops out of the sweeper if too much pressure is applied on carpeting.

Good morning. You may have to push it two/three times and the "solution" comes out in the centre of the bristles. I love it and also go to Kazumi for my regular colour. She is the best!!!!

I had a similar issue and found that I needed to adjust the little bobbing pin near the handle, it should be standing straight up at full pressure so try to use a pen to adjust it.

you may have to pull the end caps off of the brush and cut or pull the hairs off the metal pegs inside there. mine had said the same thing once and this fixed the problem.

I haven't ever noticed that many bristles falling out of mine. Maybe over the course of using it for a few months they have. But definitely not upon initial delivery. Might want to contact them. I have nothing but good things to say about mine.

The wire stems that the bristles are attached to are pretty thin and flexible. While the bristles will probably be stiff enough to get the job done, it may take many passes over an area to remove buildup since it is difficult to apply much pressure on a surface. You may want to try bending the end of a brush over since as previously noted by Nancy S., the tips are only rubber coated, not covered with bristles, and that coating will probably eventually wear off. I like the brushes and have found multiple uses for them. But I can't say how effective they will be for your feeders. I think it will depend on your patience in making repeated passes and how deep the cavity of the feeder is. Hope this helps.

I have a top-heavy brush. If not careful in leaning it toward to razor stand, then it will fall out.

I guess it's an inward valley of sorts. It definitely isn't flat. If is was used then it would probably have bristles from a shaving brush in it.

I had the exact same problem.I finally broke down and bought some extra tips.Supposedly you can soak them in acetone to clean the tips.(I think it needs to soak for 24 hrs.

No way that should be happening. You have a defective brush. Report it and Amazon will send you another brush.

Just an idea either you are not pushing the head down far enough as there should only be a slight gap between the power unit and the brush head OR you might be trying to put it on 180 degrees out of where it should be. The brush should be on the same side as the switch

There is a flat brush that could be used for this. I am not a professional by any means but I dont believe there is one in here that is supposed to be used for that reason

you have to be careful and have steady hands if you put the brush back in and even hit a smidgin of the brush with glue on the side before the bvrush goes back in consider it lost and now trash. i have purchased this twice now and i will not buy it again hope this helps

I use a Badger brush and hang it with the bristles down, with the top of the handle resting on the holder arm. In a perfect world, not satisfied with it... but world's not perfect and neither is holder but it works.

Mine does that often, all I can do is push it back together as strongly as possible. It usually stays for a while when I do that. It's a pain and I've become disappointed with this vacuum after using it for a while. Wish I had more to offer!
