Eureka 12 5 Replacement Roller Brush Review

Based on my experience with this replacement roller brush, I cannot recommend it to anyone .The brush bristles are too soft and do not pick up dirt and debris as well as the original brush. While it may work fine for light cleaning in a small area it's not suitable for heavy traffic areas in a home and kitchen. The only pro is that its easy to install. SADLY, the cons outweigh any benefits. Save yourself the trouble and look for a better replacement option..

New brush and new belt (separate order) and I'm ready to work with this durable Eureka vacuum for another ten years. The old brush bearings were frozen, the brush wouldn't spin and the smell from the belt was a sign something was wrong. Remove the two screws securing the base cover, lift the brush and pull the old belt out through the slot next to the drive…
