SPECIAL ROTATING BRUSHES

The EB400 Automatic Electric Brush is driven by its own motor, and a unique rotating brush ensures that cleaning is always thorough, gentle and hygienic. Even the finest dirt particles don’t stand a chance; the EB400 Automatic Electric Brush removes dirt and dust completely.

AWAY WITH DUST AND DIRT

During the brush-vacuuming process, the rotating brush “combs” the carpet to gently loosen stubborn dirt and give deeper layers a thorough clean. A continuous sealing lip prevents dirt and dust from being thrown back out.
