How Often to Clean Your Robot Vacuum’s Brush Roll

Clean the brush roll at least every two weeks Do it more often if you have pets or long hair. Hair wraps around the brush roll quickly, reducing suction and stopping it from spinning properly.

Check it every time you empty the bin This takes about 30 seconds. Pull the brush out, slide off the hair with the included tool or scissors, and pop it back in.

Don’t wait for a jam error Once the brush is matted with hair, it stops cleaning effectively. Waiting a month means you’re just dragging a hair-wrapped roller across your floors.
