ABSTRACT:
A vacuum cleaner includes a head for contacting the ground and a body which is pivotable relative to the head about a first axis of rotation and about a second axis of rotation. The body has a locking mechanism and the head has a reciprocal locking mechanism which are arranged such that the locking mechanism is engageable with the reciprocal locking mechanism so as to resist pivotal movement of the body relative to the head about the first axis of rotation. The locking mechanism is disengageable from the reciprocal locking mechanism to allow pivotal movement of the body relative to the head about the first axis of rotation. The vacuum cleaner also includes a stabilizer coupled to the head such that in use the stabilizer maintains contact with the ground when the body is rotated relative to the head about the first or second axis of rotation.
