A turbine brush for a vacuum cleaner comprises a brush body having an upper casing and a lower casing, and the lower casing having a suction slot through which air is drawn in from a surface being cleaned, an agitator unit having bristles at predetermined intervals, a turbine unit rotatably supported within the lower casing and being rotated by the air drawn into the turbine brush by suction force generated by the vacuum cleaner, and a power transfer unit to cause the agitator unit and the turbine unit to rotate in association with each other. When cleaning surfaces having loose material, such as a blanket or other fabric, the suction slot of the lower casing includes a plurality of ribs to inhibit the blanket or other fabric from being drawn into the brush body by the suction force generated by the vacuum cleaner. The bristles are in contact with the surface being cleaned by passing through apertures in the suction slot defined by the plural ribs. The turbine brush enables a user to conveniently clean surfaces having loose material by inhibiting the blanket or fabric from being caught by the turbine brush. Preferably, the upper casing comprises a transparent material.
