I agree with some of the other reviewers. This part should take longer than it is. After about 1-2 months, a piece of rubber comes off and after that the vacuum cleaner hardly works. It will travel right through the shit in the kitchen without picking it up. What I really want to see are 10 packs of these rubber parts (for about $10) that I can install in my brush guard. Blue plastic is ok. This is Eufy's Achilles heel!
