A surface cleaning apparatus includes a housing including an upright handle assembly and a base mounted to the upright handle assembly and adapted for movement across a surface to be cleaned. The surface cleaning apparatus is further provided with a fluid delivery system comprising a fluid dispenser configured to dispense fluid to a brushroll and at least one fluid delivery channel forming a portion of a fluid delivery pathway. The fluid delivery channel can extend adjacent to a portion of the suction nozzle assembly. An interference wiper interfaces with a portion of the brushroll to remove excess liquid from the brushroll.

A surface cleaning apparatus adapted for movement across a surface to be cleaned. The surface cleaning apparatus can dock within a storage tray and charge a power supply. Electrical contacts on the surface cleaning apparatus and the storage tray can be shielded when the surface cleaning apparatus is not docked within the storage tray. Furthermore, the storage tray can include a reservoir for a self-cleaning mode.

A floor cleaner including a fluid flow path extending from a dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet, a fluid flow motor, a separator housing, and a cylindrical filter chamber containing a cylindrical filter media. The filter chamber includes a filter inlet that enters the filter chamber tangentially. The filter inlet has a longitudinal height that is a substantial portion of the height of the filter chamber and the filter media.

A cleaning head for a cleaning machine that cleans a surface includes a housing defining a bottom that faces the surface to be cleaned, and a top spaced above the bottom. A brushroll positioned near the bottom of the housing to engage the surface during operation. The brushroll is releaseably connected to the housing; the brushroll is removable in an upward direction from the top of the housing. A suction nozzle has an inlet that draws debris from the surface into the suction nozzle. The suction nozzle is releaseably connected to the housing; the suction nozzle is removable in a downward direction from the bottom of the housing.
