Abstract
A portable surface cleaner comprises a cleaner base and an upright handle assembly pivotably connected to the cleaner base. A lower portion of the handle comprises an upper, pivot section and a lower, base section joined by a horizontal pivot axis so that the pivot section can rotate downwardly to fold against the base section to form a compact configuration for packaging, shipment, and display and pivot upwardly for assembly of the upright handle assembly prior to use.
