Check the gasket under the dirty water tank. If there's not a good seal/broken gasket, it won't have good suction.

My spinbrush 50 worked fine for about 5 minutes out of the box. After the first dirty water dump it stopped sucking because the yellow float “ball” would immediately go up and stop the flow. I found that the sleeve filter over the yellow float was indeed the culprit (as stated in a previous post). It restricted the airflow just enough to cause the problem. I tried rinsing the filter really well but even a little bit of air constriction was too much. I took it off completely and that did the trick. I don’t know what long term effect this might have on the machine, but it’s a good short term fix. Btw, if you have a lot of foam in the dirty water it will cause the same problem - the yellow float will stay in the up position and stop the suction. In this case dumping the dirty tank and rinsing out the foam will fix the problem.

Check the dirty tank, the back flap that you attach the hose too. Mine flipped out when I dumped the dirty water tank, pull it up , then back down, make sure you can't pull it forward, that should do the trick.

I had this problem and I didn’t have the clear front piece latched underneath properly.
