A cleaner head for a cleaning appliance, the cleaner head comprising: a housing defining a suction chamber; and a sole plate defining a downwardly-directed opening through which dirt can enter the suction chamber. The cleaner head further comprises a hollow deformable seal extending from a rear portion of the housing, the hollow deformable seal having a width at least equal to a width of the opening in the sole plate, and having a lower sealing surface that extends in a downward and rearward direction from a rear edge of the housing such that, in use, the hollow deformable seal is biased against and conforms to a surface being cleaned in order to maintain a seal between the cleaner head and the surface being cleaned.
