Abstract
An upright surface cleaning apparatus may have a surface cleaning head with a central longitudinal axis extending between its front and rear ends. An upright section may be mounted to the surface cleaning head and may be moveable between a generally upright position and a rearwardly inclined in use position. The upright section may include an air treatment member assembly and a suction motor. The air treatment member assembly may include an air treatment member and a dirt collection region that is positioned laterally from the air treatment member. The suction motor may be positioned below at least one of the air treatment member and the dirt collection region. The first and second laterally opposed sides and one of the front side and the rear side of the air treatment member assembly may be generally rectangular in top plan view when the upright section is in the upright position.
