Parents, I owned one when my boys were little. Sadly, I lost custody of the Rainbow in the divorce. Since it uses water, it is great to clean up vomit!! You pour a little water on top and suck the vomit right up. It picks up the smell too. It saved my carpets before my children were old enough to make it to the potty to puke. It was also great when training a puppy because, again, pour a little water on it and vac right up!!
The time has come to stop the scam side of this vacuum, which is the price. It's time to go mainstream retail with this vacuum. No doubt is is the best vacuum bar none, but there is no way its worth the money salesmen try to scam out of you. This should be about $150 more than a Dyson. No reason this should not set on the shelves at Wal-mart for about $600 or less. So sick of showing the demo to friends, only to see them laugh at the price.
representing rainbow consumers in australia... my parents bought a rainbow in the early 80s, it lasted about 20 years and we got another rainbow in the early 00s, the bastard just doesn't quit, second to none; the best vacuum cleaner i have ever encountered.
I have had a rainbows for 18 years as well and love it. A bit of a pain having to make sure U do not knock it over going around a corner ect so water does not leek out...BUT U never sneeze while using it due to dust being blown back into the air while in use and I do love it!!!
I love everything about the Rainbow EXCEPT the fact that they must be purchased from encyclopedia-type sales people. If I already know how they work, what they do, and want one, why can't I just order it straight from the manufacturer or go to a retail outlet to purchase one WITHOUT subjecting myself to high pressure and paying sales commission for something I don't need demonstrated and already desire?
When you vacuum, do you really want to get the dirt and debris up? Then own a Rainbow, regardless of what year or model it is! It is well made (average life is 20+ years!) and even improves the air-quality in your home each time you use it! There is no better vacuum on the market!!!! (no, i do not sell them)
Own a Rainbow to effectively clean your home, regardless of what model it is or how old....own one! They are simple the most effective, well made vacuums....PERIOD!
Uses water as primary filter for dirt. Other than that a relatively ordinary vacuum cleaner with an extraordinarily high price.
Just think for $1800 you could hire a maid to clean your home for several years. Perhaps you can find a maid that brings her own Rainbow if you're impressed with them...
One thing that has never left my memory.................I was a small boy living on slab road & Tracey M. came over to throw a sales pitch to mom & dad and during his speech he said where does the dust go? In a spiritual tone & he raised both hands and looked up in the air & said "In the air"! That "in the air" has never left my memory!!!!!!!!!!! In a rainbow the dust goes in water.
We have gone through so many vacuums because I couldnt get the carpets spotless. We have solid maroon carpet and it shows every speck. We got a Rainbow vacuum and it is awesome it cleans so well! I would recomend it! The carpets look awesome!!!! (I dont know what they cost we got ours free from a friend)
I've had the same Rainbow for the past 30 years and I still love it. I've used it at least once a week and the power is still as good as the day I bought it. As long as you empty the container and wipe it clean it will never rust.

Rainbows do work. I've had one for five years and I've taken the hepa filter off and it's still snow white and smells new. If the water wasn't doing it's job the hepa filter would be filthy by now. I will agree these are overpriced and the sales tactics aren't always the greatest. That being said, Rainbow's work great as long as they are USED PROPERLY. Change the water with every room. Don't let the water get too dirty or else it can't catch the dirt. Get one from a reputable vacuum shop.
Put this in your pipe and smoke it. The Rainbow I own is now 35 years old....my mother's prior was 25 years old. These are expensive, but they LAST FOREVER and honor every promise they make. SO THERE you Skeptics.
I have had one for about 12 years. I love it and it is great.. Sales people for vacuums (including Rainbow) are a disgrace and pushy so if you can't say no then don't call or let any of them in. Rainbow cost is better than others I have seen like Kirby because of bag and filter cost. Rainbow is sometimes gross to empty the water mixed with the stuff it sucks up and looks like stomach contents. But it works. Never leave water in without the motor running, it will destroy it with rust.
I"ve had a Rainbow for 8 years and it's the absolute best way to clean your house. Don't blow dust...clean through a certified air filtration system. Don't believe it? See for yourself....check it out in your home with no obligation to buy. I'd love to show the new model to you! If you live in the Augusta, GA area call me at 706-667-8411.

@p1q0 Get one!!!! I do not sell them, but have been aware of them since I was 5 years old (now 42 years old) If you really want your carpet and home to be FRESH and CLEAN....get one, regardless of the year or model. They are sooooo well constructed and the average life span is in excess of 20 years! They clean just as good when they are 20 years old as the day it was new because it NEVER loses air-flow, which is the true ability to clean. Hope this helps!:)
These are absolutly the best vaccum cleaners out there. They used to go by the name Rexair or Rexall for years and my mom owned one when I was growing up. I then purchased one and they are amazing. They are very pricey but I have allergies so it was worth it. You can use it on couches, mattresses, and carpets. You can go over your carpet first with your own vaccuum cleaner then get someone who has a rainbow go right behind you and you will never look at vaccum cleaners the same way again.

They only work well if you keep all of the internal stuff clean (they need to be broken down and scrubbed at least once a month) and you add a wetting solution to the water. If you try to use straight water, much of the dust doesn't get trapped and escapes.
i went to a home show two years ago and yesterday this salesman shows up to do a demonstration i think yah yah give me the free gift and get out but this was different he was showing me the air i was breathing in was dirty and my vacuum was spreading dust around needless to say i just bought a rainbow yesterday and have used it all day long because im looking to prove that everythings clean but it has made a believer out of me 4 life
tell me, if up to 75% of the dust in the air is dead skin, and dead skin is oil based and as we all should know, water and oil do not go well together, how is it that it can filter out all the pollution?? But to most people they wouldnt know that. Its amazing how the right sales pitch can make anyone believe anything.
@neamek: if you're a scientist, you'd better consider other careers. ever had dandruff? i want you to do this: take a bucket of water, and you or a dandruffy friend rub your hair until dandruff flakes start falling into it. let me know if it goes back in the air. oh, it doesn't? it would float in the water. just because it doesn't MIX doesn't mean it can't filter. it's amazing the number of morons that can post on youtube...
u moron, ur tryin to tell me that if dead skin just sits on top of the water inside the rainbow that it goin to just sit there? not even move when all that air rushes past it? if the rainbow was so effective why does it have a filter after the exhaust? after all the air, pollution, dirt, dust, dead skin has past thru the water? doesnt make sense if the water filters everything, why you would have one now does it. it's amazing the number of morons that can post on youtube
@neamek It's on there for two reasons, 1 for misuse (if you lend it to someone and they use it without water) and 2, to get the non water soluble particulates like baby power, sut or drywall,
True. My hepa filter is still snow white after using my Rainbow E2 for 4 years.....Seriously. I figured it would be really dirty but I frequently change the water and don't let it turn to mud (maybe that's why)..so much must not be escaping the water at all. If I were to change anything about the Rainbow it would be the power head. I think it would be perfect with a different design. This design seems to choke off airflow somewhat, otherwise it's great. Nothing compares
The power head is spotless. It's just the way it's designed. I've heard the Wessel Werk (I think is the name) makes a better power head that goes on the Rainbow. I've read people say it works much better. Example.......If I put the rainbow power head on and run it over hard wood or linoleum, it doesn't seem to pick up....But if you put another power head on the rainbow (even though it doesn't fit, you can still put it on there) the flow of air out the bottom feels much stronger.
@mark40511 The Powernozzle(while it can be used for) isn't designed for hard floor pick up. I suggest using the floor and wall brush or the floor squeegie for hard surfaces.
I have often wondered this......Yes you can get a bucket of water and dandruff will stick to the water........But would it stick to churning water and suction going through there so fast? I suppose it still stays in the water, otherwise my hepa would be a nasty mess but it's not dirty at all. Pretty crazy but true.
I realize this and do use the floor and wall brush. It's great. That said if you run the power head over a crumb on the floor (even though not designed for hard surfaces) and there is not enough suction to pick it up, how can it be doing an efficient job on the carpets? That's why I say I think the design of the Rainbow power head somewhat chokes off the airflow, because the Rainbow has awesome suction, but feeling underneath the power head, the suction doesn't feel that intense.
Best investment I ever made. Cannot believe the difference it has made in our lives as far as overall health, time and air quality. Yes it is pricey, but pays for itself over time. You have to see it to believe it!! Amazing!!!

@leebog31 $2000 now or $20,000+ latter for a new lung due to allergens, dust mites, and all the other nasties floating in the air due to sweeping ,vacuuming hey even just sitting on a couch or chair can raise the dust into the air you the kids the wife all breath in . i didnt like the sounds of the price either but actions speak louder . i was in the process of removing my carpet today due to my allergies , i saved my carpet and myself $300 dollars by not having to replace it and my health
I agree these are overpriced!!!!! But they DO work! If anyone has any dust escaping the water it's due to this....Vacuuming with the basin of water thickening to mud like cake batter, and continuing vacuuming......You need to stop and dump the water when it looks semi-nasty (like mop water).....fill up the basin with clean, and continue.....This not only eliminates dust/dirt escaping the water, but also having to find a place to dump the water before it turns to muck. Dump in sink.

In the 1960's there was no match for Rainbow. I saw demo where Kirby and Hoover exhausts (captured in a big plastic bag and channeled into a Rainbow inlet hose) turned the water grey in the Rainbow water pan, from the exhausted dust. . . yet another same type of demo capturing a Rainbow exhausting into a second Rainbow, left the water in the second Rainbow clean. Wet dust can't fly! Today, HEPA filters in Kirbys & others have greatly narrowed the differences, but, dust-into bag = dust out.
I used to demonstrate Rainbows. I went in a house one day and kept picking salt up out of the carpet. I asked them why salt was in the carpet. They said Kirby had demonstrated in that exact spot about 4 months ago and had put salt in the carpet as part of the demonstration. Sold another Rainbow!! Kirby is equivalent to the MUCH CHEAPER Dirt Devil, imho.
I read all 53 comments posted here as of 1/4/10 and I must say... theres an enormous amount of errors and misguided opinions. The Rainbow vacuum IS a good cleaner, and as far as canister vacuums are concerned, Rainbow probably has the best power nozzle on the market. Very aggressive, great vibrating action to get the sand up from the bottom of the carpet. The down side is (not every home) but in many homes, the carpets are so dirty...
that they DO in fact plug the hepa filter. The filter plugs up and this slowly damages the motor because it's being forced to run under an abnormal load or strain. It can also damage the circuit board. This type of motor failure is not covered by the warranty.
Yes, the Rainbow DOES have a filter for the few of you out there who didn't know... like Kathy Lee (ha ha)... she says on this video theres no filters. Wrong. she, like most Rainbow owners don't even know theres a filter in the machine because the salespeople don't tell them about it. The customer should be told about servicing the filter. In a clean home, it's a non-issue, but in most homes, it can be a huge issue. For the Kirby guys... yes, your Hepa bag plugs up too. Don't lie.
Finally, I'd like to address the comments about the "rainbow doesn't work" video on you tube... you guys mentioned the bald fat stupid guy that posted that video, then disabled the "comments" section so no one could explain that he's a fraud. He was getting bombarded with negative comments and insults so he shut off the comments. You folks on here were talking about him using a laser particle counter on the video. If you watch the video again, you'll notice that he's cheating...
When he puts the particle counter on the back of the Rainbow, he's holding it up to the TOP exhaust port... the "room air" that it simply traveling through the machine to cool the motor. That air is not filtered. He never puts the tester by the hepa filter where its cleaned. He a bullshit artist, hiding in a shitty little vacuum store trying to peddle Miele CRAP vacuums because he lacks the skills to sell the good equipment. Don't believe his bullshit.
I love, love, love a Rainbow. I do wish they had not put a filter in them. The old ones were great with just the water and you didn't have to maintain the filter.
It depends on which model of Rainbow you are referring to. Millions of older Rainbows still in use (model D2, D3C, D4C) do not use filters, other than the water in the water pan. Separate filters in Rainbows were first introduced in the late 1990's, with the e-Series models. This was to increase the efficiency of picking up "non-wettables" (talcum powder, fireplace ash, etc.) which, if sucked up in very large quantities could bounce off the water and back into the air. (Don't vacuum ashes!)
Actually, it had nothing to do with "efficiency" nor was it the big "consumer reports scandal". The reason they put the filter on was because when the first e series units were created (before being mass produced) the new e series design was blowing dust out at an incredible rate, it was a mess. They had to do something, so a filter hid that mess, & created a little back pressure which allowed the new model to work properly. The first couple years it was a disposable filter. A disaster.

it has a filter in the back.. and thats why you can get the deodorizer, it kills bacteria will kill air born germs with the Triethylene Glycol ingredient just like some hospitals use. This will help prevent the spread of colds and flus throughout the family if you use this in the water while vacuuming or cleaning the air... so DUH have u even checked into it?? than just saying something
actually, if it's turned on, nothing goes into the motor goes into the motor, it's sealed! If left tipped over, you might get a little blow by out of the vents around the basin. Nothing major.
Sorry.....I sold both and made a side by side comparison with the dirt in the kirby bag put into water as well and the RAINBOW wins hands down.....and the longer you vacuum the worse the difference gets as the bag plugs and, YES, the kirby bag DOES plug just the same as any other upright vacuum bag.....Also the kirby DEMO is false in that they use cloths to catch the dirt and change them after a minute or two.....the RAINBOW water system is the only one that CAN work. it is a scientific FACT.
I got a showing about 2 years ago and I was impressed. But scared to commit. I regretted my decision until last week. I finally bought one. God I love the Rainbow. For 2 years I wish I got it instead of my $450 Dyson that just died. Spend big first and never again. I recommend everyone at least getting a showing. It's worth it. It's worth more.
So long as the machine is running, the water will not be sucked into the fans. I've turned one of the older D3 models upside down wile it was running with water once, and it was fine.
The Rainbow is the best cleaning machine on the market today. If you are in the vac business and you put down Rainbow.....Well maybe it is because you SUCK AT SELLING...... I hope your family loves the free cheese from the government cause I know you are flat broke from Kirby.... If you want to see what Rainbow can do for you and your family go look at my video!!!!
lets see, I want to vacuum my stairway .....its carpeted how do I keep this vacuum on the step, uh oh it fell down the steps and water is all over the place, dang it.
Couple things ya could do Purchase the Rainbow Mate little mini power nozzle do u have a sink up stairs... What i do is Do the first 5 or 6 steps down stairs then dump water and go upstairs do other 5 or 6 stairs
I have had my rainbow now for a solid 14 years. Still LOVE it, I recommend one to anyone and everyone tired of replacing their crappy plastic models every 18 months. Buy big and never buy again.
Now Dont get me wrong its not the most convient way to clean the house but the works the best... But if you only want a convient way to clean the house then a rainbow might just not be for you. Buying a Rainbow on ebay you also get no warranty from the company losing out of the 8year motor warranty and 4year on the parts.
But you're still getting a good deal if it's from a reputable vacuum company. Some of the older models have been completely reconditioned and are like new and will last for years. Personally, I bought one from Rexair but if I had to do it over again, I would have bought one USED on Ebay. Not the most convenient way to clean house but it is the BEST way to clean house. After three years using mine, the hepa is still snow white. Who ever says water doesn't filter is wrong!
if you buy it on ebay your are pretty much on your own if it break, but yes they are build to last 20 years. and no support from the companie because they can't and you can't be sure of how the product was threaded by the previous owner or he just just gonna deliver it broken. buy one new from rainbow
Hi Been Selling Rainbows for 3years now in little town in New York... Sold 125 Rainbows Machines last year... I only work off referrals yes lots of new people come and go after showing family its because they dont give it a chance. Ya have to work hard but good money.
Central Vacs are really good because dust goes outside and easy to use but the negatives are that the airflow has to travel through 100ft to 200ft of pipes and hoses... just to hit a filter in the basement...
I've had on of these for three yrs. They are a a hassle but at the same time they do a better job than bagged vacuums. I have hepa bagged canister and if I get lazy and get it out and use it instead of the Rainbow, the level of dust in my house a few days later is much more than if I had used the Rainbow. To me, its a hassle, BUT you don't clean as often! Get one used on Ebay or from a vacuum dealer. Not new, they are overpriced.
been in the game a long time, know how it works, hire, train, practice on friends and family, make a few sales and when you run out of those the sales get tougher, ppl not as receptive, its that way for any in home sales for a product that costs as much as that, for the asking price of one of these I can install a Central Vacuum System
So you think a BAG systen is better than the rainbows water base?? right get a bag vaccum leave that nasty bag in there for a month let all the bacteria and germs rot away in there and spray your house with dust everytime you turn it on. Ive had this machine since 2001 and I havent had any hassles with mine. My grandmother bought hers back in 1990 and it still works great with no issues.
BAGS CLOG UP!! Water Does Not!! Bags obligate you to STORE the dirt! Water eliminates all this.
im in the vacuum business i used a rainbow before and the are a picece of shit .any bagged vacuum will out clean them any day. i rather change a bag then empty out the nasty rainbow why would u want to touch nasty bacteria filled water?and another thing rainbow vacuums are not sealed so therefore they leak germs and bacteria.
hmm, if the rainbows are a piece of shit, why would the water be nasty (unless it really works)? The bag would have the exact same bacteria as what you would pick up in the water...as it all comes from the same place regardless of the receptacle you put it into....from your carpet and your floors!
well you are a total retard, there is nothing like rainbow vaccum, they use 2 rainbows in an operation room dedicated to brain surgery in utah, and they guy who made the video talking shit about rainbow it's just trying to sell his shit and manupulate the results of the test he is an asshole. but rainbow has been around for over 75 years, you can't compite with that.
u can't manupulate a laser particle counter and u wouldn't have to with the rainbow because it is a vaccum that is not sealed so it blows crap everywhere
you are an idiot just like the bald fat man in that video, (funny how he wont allow any responses) that water in the basin looks like he let it sit there for 4-5 days then tested it.
Not sure who told you these systems are used in an OR but as and OR nurse, I would like to know where. ORs are built with huge airflow exchange systems and would never rely on a vacuum cleaner to to this much less one that is water filled. Talk about a breeding ground for bacteria. Either you are a salesman or you have been deceived by one.
@Chris242tt Hold on, he put the counter to the turbine cooling section on the Rainbow and not the exhaust, DO NOT be fooled. Look at where he places it.
I JUST had a customer trade in their Miele for a Rainbow last week. It smelled soooo bad, let alone all the dust that shot out of it when I turned it on in the house.
tell me how much you like it in 6 mos. they don't clean any better than others you just see all the filth in the water instead of a bag. Each time you use, fill the water pan vacuum, dump out all the mud and hair you picked up, dump the nasty water somewhere, clean the water pan, take off the seperateor and clean it, dry it out and then put away, you have to do this each time you use it, too much hassle, just get a good vacuum with a good bag system and change the bag once a month
but there is no good bag vacuum that will clean near as well as a rainbow. If you're too lazy to clean your rainbow, why are you even bothering to clean your house? A bag system just rearranges the dirt. Doesn't matter how much you spend on a bag vac, they whole concept of bag vacuums is flawed because the bags have tiny holes to allow air flow, and this allows the dust to go right back into your house!
Parents, I owned one when my boys were little. Sadly, I lost custody of the Rainbow in the divorce. Since it uses water, it is great to clean up vomit!! You pour a little water on top and suck the vomit right up. It picks up the smell too. It saved my carpets before my children were old enough to make it to the potty to puke. It was also great when training a puppy because, again, pour a little water on it and vac right up!!

When you vacuum, do you really want to get the dirt and debris up? Then own a Rainbow, regardless of what year or model it is! It is well made (average life is 20+ years!) and even improves the air-quality in your home each time you use it! There is no better vacuum on the market!!!! (no, i do not sell them)

Rainbows do work. I've had one for five years and I've taken the hepa filter off and it's still snow white and smells new. If the water wasn't doing it's job the hepa filter would be filthy by now. I will agree these are overpriced and the sales tactics aren't always the greatest. That being said, Rainbow's work great as long as they are USED PROPERLY. Change the water with every room. Don't let the water get too dirty or else it can't catch the dirt. Get one from a reputable vacuum shop.

I have had one for about 12 years. I love it and it is great.. Sales people for vacuums (including Rainbow) are a disgrace and pushy so if you can't say no then don't call or let any of them in. Rainbow cost is better than others I have seen like Kirby because of bag and filter cost. Rainbow is sometimes gross to empty the water mixed with the stuff it sucks up and looks like stomach contents. But it works. Never leave water in without the motor running, it will destroy it with rust.

@p1q0 Get one!!!! I do not sell them, but have been aware of them since I was 5 years old (now 42 years old) If you really want your carpet and home to be FRESH and CLEAN....get one, regardless of the year or model. They are sooooo well constructed and the average life span is in excess of 20 years! They clean just as good when they are 20 years old as the day it was new because it NEVER loses air-flow, which is the true ability to clean. Hope this helps!:)

These are absolutly the best vaccum cleaners out there. They used to go by the name Rexair or Rexall for years and my mom owned one when I was growing up. I then purchased one and they are amazing. They are very pricey but I have allergies so it was worth it. You can use it on couches, mattresses, and carpets. You can go over your carpet first with your own vaccuum cleaner then get someone who has a rainbow go right behind you and you will never look at vaccum cleaners the same way again.

They only work well if you keep all of the internal stuff clean (they need to be broken down and scrubbed at least once a month) and you add a wetting solution to the water. If you try to use straight water, much of the dust doesn't get trapped and escapes.

tell me, if up to 75% of the dust in the air is dead skin, and dead skin is oil based and as we all should know, water and oil do not go well together, how is it that it can filter out all the pollution??

True. My hepa filter is still snow white after using my Rainbow E2 for 4 years.....Seriously. I figured it would be really dirty but I frequently change the water and don't let it turn to mud (maybe that's why)..so much must not be escaping the water at all. If I were to change anything about the Rainbow it would be the power head. I think it would be perfect with a different design. This design seems to choke off airflow somewhat, otherwise it's great. Nothing compares

@CODAC
The power head is spotless. It's just the way it's designed. I've heard the Wessel Werk (I think is the name) makes a better power head that goes on the Rainbow. I've read people say it works much better. Example.......If I put the rainbow power head on and run it over hard wood or linoleum, it doesn't seem to pick up....But if you put another power head on the rainbow (even though it doesn't fit, you can still put it on there) the flow of air out the bottom feels much stronger.
mark40511 1 year ago
@mark40511 The Powernozzle(while it can be used for) isn't designed for hard floor pick up. I suggest using the floor and wall brush or the floor squeegie for hard surfaces.
CODAC 1 year ago
@strawberry921
I have often wondered this......Yes you can get a bucket of water and dandruff will stick to the water........But would it stick to churning water and suction going through there so fast? I suppose it still stays in the water, otherwise my hepa would be a nasty mess but it's not dirty at all. Pretty crazy but true.
mark40511 1 year ago
@mark40511
I realize this and do use the floor and wall brush. It's great. That said if you run the power head over a crumb on the floor (even though not designed for hard surfaces) and there is not enough suction to pick it up, how can it be doing an efficient job on the carpets? That's why I say I think the design of the Rainbow power head somewhat chokes off the airflow, because the Rainbow has awesome suction, but feeling underneath the power head, the suction doesn't feel that intense.

carrabec99 1 year ago

I agree these are overpriced!!!!! But they DO work! If anyone has any dust escaping the water it's due to this....Vacuuming with the basin of water thickening to mud like cake batter, and continuing vacuuming......You need to stop and dump the water when it looks semi-nasty (like mop water).....fill up the basin with clean, and continue.....This not only eliminates dust/dirt escaping the water, but also having to find a place to dump the water before it turns to muck. Dump in sink.

In the 1960's there was no match for Rainbow. I saw demo where Kirby and Hoover exhausts (captured in a big plastic bag and channeled into a Rainbow inlet hose) turned the water grey in the Rainbow water pan, from the exhausted dust. . . yet another same type of demo capturing a Rainbow exhausting into a second Rainbow, left the water in the second Rainbow clean. Wet dust can't fly! Today, HEPA filters in Kirbys & others have greatly narrowed the differences, but, dust-into bag = dust out.

I read all 53 comments posted here as of 1/4/10 and I must say... theres an enormous amount of errors and misguided opinions. The Rainbow vacuum IS a good cleaner, and as far as canister vacuums are concerned, Rainbow probably has the best power nozzle on the market. Very aggressive, great vibrating action to get the sand up from the bottom of the carpet. The down side is (not every home) but in many homes, the carpets are so dirty...
juanvenus 2 years ago
that they DO in fact plug the hepa filter. The filter plugs up and this slowly damages the motor because it's being forced to run under an abnormal load or strain. It can also damage the circuit board. This type of motor failure is not covered by the warranty.
juanvenus 2 years ago
Yes, the Rainbow DOES have a filter for the few of you out there who didn't know... like Kathy Lee (ha ha)... she says on this video theres no filters. Wrong. she, like most Rainbow owners don't even know theres a filter in the machine because the salespeople don't tell them about it. The customer should be told about servicing the filter. In a clean home, it's a non-issue, but in most homes, it can be a huge issue. For the Kirby guys... yes, your Hepa bag plugs up too. Don't lie.
juanvenus 2 years ago
Finally, I'd like to address the comments about the "rainbow doesn't work" video on you tube... you guys mentioned the bald fat stupid guy that posted that video, then disabled the "comments" section so no one could explain that he's a fraud.

If you watch the video again, you'll notice that he's cheating...
juanvenus 2 years ago
When he puts the particle counter on the back of the Rainbow, he's holding it up to the TOP exhaust port... the "room air" that it simply traveling through the machine to cool the motor. That air is not filtered. He never puts the tester by the hepa filter where its cleaned. He a bullshit artist, hiding in a shitty little vacuum store trying to peddle Miele CRAP vacuums because he lacks the skills to sell the good equipment. Don't believe his bullshit.

missbipbip1 2 years ago
It depends on which model of Rainbow you are referring to. Millions of older Rainbows still in use (model D2, D3C, D4C) do not use filters, other than the water in the water pan. Separate filters in Rainbows were first introduced in the late 1990's, with the e-Series models. This was to increase the efficiency of picking up "non-wettables" (talcum powder, fireplace ash, etc.) which, if sucked up in very large quantities could bounce off the water and back into the air. (Don't vacuum ashes!)
ORU4me 2 years ago
Actually, it had nothing to do with "efficiency" nor was it the big "consumer reports scandal". The reason they put the filter on was because when the first e series units were created (before being mass produced) the new e series design was blowing dust out at an incredible rate, it was a mess. They had to do something, so a filter hid that mess, & created a little back pressure which allowed the new model to work properly. The first couple years it was a disposable filter. A disaster.

But you're still getting a good deal if it's from a reputable vacuum company. Some of the older models have been completely reconditioned and are like new and will last for years. Personally, I bought one from Rexair but if I had to do it over again, I would have bought one USED on Ebay. Not the most convenient way to clean house but it is the BEST way to clean house. After three years using mine, the hepa is still snow white. Who ever says water doesn't filter is wrong!

Each time you use, fill the water pan vacuum, dump out all the mud and hair you picked up, dump the nasty water somewhere, clean the water pan, take off the seperateor and clean it, dry it out and then put away, you have to do this each time you use it, too much hassle, just get a good vacuum with a good bag system and change the bag once a month

Then Go use a Leaf Blower in your house because that's no different than using a bag, cannister, or central vac sweeper!

but there is no good bag vacuum that will clean near as well as a rainbow. If you're too lazy to clean your rainbow, why are you even bothering to clean your house? A bag system just rearranges the dirt. Doesn't matter how much you spend on a bag vac, they whole concept of bag vacuums is flawed because the bags have tiny holes to allow air flow, and this allows the dust to go right back into your house!
