Surface cleaning apparatus

A surface cleaning apparatus comprising:

• an upright body comprising a handle and a frame;
• a base operably coupled to the upright body;
• an agitator provided with the base;
• a fluid delivery system comprising:
• a supply tank removable from the frame, the supply tank adapted to hold a supply of cleaning fluid;
• and
• a fluid dispenser provided with the base, the fluid dispenser in fluid communication with the supply tank;
• and
• a recovery system comprising:
• a recovery pathway;
• a recovery tank removable from the frame and forming a portion of the recovery pathway;
• a suction source;
• and
• a suction inlet port provided with the base and in fluid communication with the suction source, wherein the suction inlet port is configured to simultaneously ingest fluid and debris through the recovery pathway;
• wherein the recovery tank comprises a standpipe and a baffle that directs fluid and/or debris out of a working airstream to a side and/or a bottom of the recovery tank;
• and
• wherein the recovery tank comprises a pre-filter fluidly downstream of the baffle and a motor filter fluidly downstream of the pre-filter.
