My E2 Rainbow will be 9 years old in August. Best machine ever and still works today as good as it did when I took it out of the box. I never have to dust....I may dust the furniture with and actual day 3 or 4 times per year. These machines are well worth the price.
I love Rainbow vacuums. Hands down the best ever. Using the water to trap the dirt/dust is genius and then clean air comes out after. I used to have one years ago and will most likely be buying another one here very soon. Truly the best on the market.
Taliba Imhotep few grand but you never worry about breathing dirt plus had mine for 15 years and replaced only a basin and something else, and ive seen used for 500 on eBay, still worth it
We got suckered in to buying a Rainbow back in 2006, and we kept it about a year before regretting it. The big issue is that it is not a very convenient system to use. Every time you use it, you have to fill up the water basin, vacuum, then empty the water basin, and clean it out. For small things, like our kids spilling Cheerios, this became a pain. So we ended up with a Dyson upright, and the Rainbow saw less and less use. The final nail in the coffin was forgetting we had left the water in it, and after that, we never could get the smell out. A couple years ago, we agreed to do another demo, as a friend of a friend had started selling them. We made it very clear we were not interested in buying, but they wanted to do the demo anyways, as I guess they thought they could change our mind. When the demo was over, I was shocked to learn that the price had ballooned up to $4,000....for a vacuum! Needless to say, we did not bite this time. On a side note, always be suspicious of anything only sold in your home via a demo, party or whatever. It's not on Amazon, or WalMart for a reason.
Emptying a bowl definitely isn’t very convenient so I continued to use my van vac and now I can’t breath in my house again. Also my dyson doesn’t like dryer sheets as much as my rainbow.
I bought my first rainbow (my allergy doctor recommended it) in 1985. I still have it, use it near daily and still love it! The only repair I've had was to replace the cord. I started selling them in 1990 because I simply loved mine soooo much! I put eucalyptus oil in it when I'm vacuuming in the winter to help my kids with respiratory bugs. I use lemon and orange oil in the summer just for the fun of it!
I LOVE this machine. Had my first one for over 25 years now and then bought another new one just because... now one is upstairs and one at the office. Excellent product for SOOO many reasons which you point out Ben. Get Rainbow vac for your air and clean home and Saladmaster Cooking equipment for the inside of your body! You just can't go wrong. Nothing cheap here for either product line.... but SOOOOO worth it and save more on other things in your life, but you won't realize this until you own them and use them!
i sold them back in the late 80s. My mother bought one and still has it till this day. 28 years and counting. Has always worked great and in my opinion one of the best and most reliable vacuum cleaners out there. Today they appear even better. I myself who has had 3 dogs at almost all given times in the past 30 years, unless you vacuum 3 times a week, no vacuum does a real complete job. Dog hairs are the real enemy. I took my mom's Rainbow and used it in my home comparing it to several different bagged style units. Pickup power is really good on the Rainbow. Regardless of the some of the "Good" bag vacuums, the Rainbow seemed to do better at pulling the dirt/hair. Although, on my carpet, I had to make 3 full passes on my carpet before the tank didn't appear like mud. I would say I was not vacuuming enough...... If I wanted to buy one these days i would. Problem is most of my house is tiled. Sweeping and mopping is so much better than vacuuming now.....I recommend them if you have the dough.
Mopping is essentially spreading dirt and mud on your floors. Sweeping kicks around bacteria, allergens, dirt, and dander if you own pets. I have a rainbow and I’d recommend it for tile/hardwood floors. There are many attachments meant to clean not just carpet! Walls, mattresses, refrigerator coils, dryer lint traps, curtains, tile, wood, carpet, etc. it also purifies the air. It’s really the best cleaning decision all around regardless I think!
@@ILovHelloKitty13 You are so right, my whole house is hardwood and granite, I also have Dyson stick, and only after vacuuming with rainbow my floors feel really clean, I walk barefoot so I can tell the difference. I have 4 dogs and 3 cats.
@@ScooterFXRS When you wash your floors on your knees and change water every 10 sq feet than you can say your floors are clean, there is no good and bad mopping.
ScooterFXRS I agree to some extent and I don’t think mopping is disgusting or anything. But if you think about it, you’re gathering germs on the outside of a fabric and spreading them around the floor. Then you’re dunking your dirty mop head in clean water, making it dirty as well, then spreading around more germs. Rinse and repeat. With the rainbow you’re spraying down water & soap, then sucking it up completely. As well as being able to scrub with the 8 different attachments. (that are pretty dang easy to put on lol.) I’m not trying to sell you the rainbow, I’m just saying from experience it’s the gold standard.
My old roommate had a rainbow. I did most of the cleaning, so I used it a lot. It was a little more work to set up and clean afterwards, but I'll never forget how well it worked. You could feel just how clean the air in that house, and obviously the carpets, were after a cleaning. I plan to get one for myself soon.
I will NEVER stop regretting selling mine for pennies on the dollar when I got tired of dragging that heavy thing around, hitting my ankles! It's a heavy vacuum, it's clunky, but it's the BEST vac out there.
I would suggest checking garage sales, that is where I got one of mine (I have 2). Or try ebay, watch the prices, and make sure it is marked 'new'. Or even go to the Rainbow website. Good luck! I saw the phone number to the guy that did this video--208-263-8849, email brett2726@gmail.com. Maybe he could give you some assistance.
We just got the spx new as 2019 model and I grew up with a SE from 1994 and there has been a lot of improvement even over previous model that I believe would definitely alleviate some of your issues
I have a (first gen?) that my mom bought like 20 years ago. It still runs like I just purchased it and still cleans the air wonderfully. I can't recommend this vacuum enough! I love my rainbow vacuum!!! Edit: I guess the model I have is the E2. I had never heard of rainbow vacuums before my mom purchased her vacuum so I assumed the company was relatively new.
I've had one for 7 years. Pros: * It is the most effect cleaner I've ever used. * It is durable; extremely well-made (in the USA). Cons: *Expensive (New, they're about $1,500.) * Cumbersome. You cannot just plug it in and use. There is substantial prep, including adding clean water, hooking up the large hose and the attachments you are going to use. * You cannot simply store it away after you vacuum. You must empty the old water, clean the system, which means wiping down the inside of the power unit. The dirty water and debris in the bowl has to be discarded (very messy), the hoses must be rinsed and hung out to dry. * Not very maneuverable. (My wife won't use it; it's too difficult for her to pull around.)
Not sure what you mean regarding rinsing out the hoses. I have the SRX & only have to dump, wash & let dry the water bowl & check the separator to make sure it's not clogged. The hose never gets wet.
After using all kinds of vacuums for more than fifty years I can vouch for the rainbow. I am so grateful I spent my money in it. When I die is going to one of my children.
I got my Rainbow 2 days ago. I am so happy with my purchase. I have 3 kids, 2 cats, and a dog. I was vacuuming at least 2 times a day, and dusting multiple times a day. No more!! I am in heaven with this system. There is no pet hair or dust settled on my counters when I wake up. Nothing sticking to the bottom of my feet. It is an incredibly expensive investment for your home, but man, it is really nice to clean, it stay clean, and you don't feel discouraged from working with machines that simply can not add up to this system.
I love rainbow vacuum. 20 years ago, my brother had asthma from our home carpet and my parents got a rainbow vacuum, after they got this vacuum my brother had less and less asthma attack. Fast forward today I have my own house now and I got rainbow vacuum. By the way my parents have same vacuum from 20 years ago and still up and running. Had to service twice but still worth it.
We had our Rainbow for almost 25 years before it gave out. Older model from the 80s! And yes we used it to clean the air as well and amazing machine! I believe that my kids grew up with less contaminants from our houses we lived in with Rugs. None of my 3 kids ever had asthma or breathing issue's! Time to get our 2nd unit in 25 years!!
Used to have a vacuum shop, by far the best vacuum out there. My favorite vacuum to use but the worst vacuum to fix, very technical especially when putting all those components and aluminum fans back in place.
He comprado esta aspiradora y no soy agente de venta. Soy solo una cliente más. Y puedo decir que tengo desde un trapeador (usamos en Cuba -- palo en forma de T), hasta robot, Dyson, etc) Hasta llegar a Rainbow Y CREANME ES EL MEJOR PRODUCTO QUE EXISTE HOY POR HOY. NO HAY NADA, PERO NADA QUE SI SIQUIERA SE IGUALE. Si quieres una casa limpia, muy, muy limpia. Debes comprar Rainbow. I't the best. I'm very happy now.
I grew up with one of these Rainbow machine - 30 years ago. And it worked strong forever until my younger brothers decided to experiment with the mechanics of the motor. I think I may invest in one for my own home.
I am the guy in the video and I can hook you up with a sweet discount. Feel free to email or call me for more info at 208-263-8849 or brett2726@gmail.com
Nice presentation. Thank you - we love our rainbow! Other than the main feature in cleaning the carpet, the accessories are nothing but awesome additional benefits. My cars has never been clean inside as they are now and those car scents, gone! the aroma oils, super!
I have had one since the late 80s - $900 back then - and sold them for a year up until the point I was embarrassed to ask people for $1200 for one. Now they have HEPA filters? We use to rag on those things. Do they still do the hose to hose contest with Kirby vacs? The Rainbow use to suck the Kirby bag flat. It does work great but in the end it is a way overpriced vacuum. You can pick them up dirt cheap on Ebay. The one thing I found out about a few years after I got mine was the beater bar in the power nozzle had a nylon bar that if nicked or scratched would shred your carpet. I got a 100% brush replacement and carpets look way better; I replaced the carpet 3 years ago and it still looks great. The carpet shampoo attachment sucks ass, I vacuum well and call a guy who does real carpet cleaning for me. The old squeegee is handy but the other attachments are a pain. I was a marketing director/office manager so learned how to disassemble/repair the things. You can find parts all over the internet as well as videos of how to do so. The one thing Rexair should have looked into was putting a heavier gauge power cord on the thing because it draws too much amperage and the cord actually gets hot. Drop the price down to $500 and the thing makes sense. Get rid of all of the silly bullshit toys that come with it and sell it as a vacuum, which is all it is.
Be wary of the program! The rainbow is great really. However, we entered the program and sold like 7 out of the 12 demos we did. 7! Unfortunately, the fine print stated we HAD to have only 4 renters for the demos the rest had to be home owners. So, even with our 7 sold. We didnt qualify for completing the program. They waited 2 months, until yesterday, to tell us this info. Now, we have 1 week to find 1 more demo, who fits their demographics. Even if they buy the vacuum it wont count towards our program unless they fit into the specificiations. This is so misleading in many ways. We did do a 13th show literally last night. Hoping to finish the 12th qualifying show. Today we get an email from the rainbow company stating the the county records are not updated. And because the homeowner recently purchsed the home in june it does not reflect their name, it just says it was sold but not to whom. I had no plans to ask all my friends wether they own their home and show proof. If i would have know this i would have opted out. They are worse than pushy salesman cause at least you dont get ropped in and do all the hard work taking them to all your friends houses and in the end having to foot the bill for a very expensive vacuum.
my aunt bought a rainbow and gave my name for a demo. along with 5 other peoples names so she could get a free shampooerthe manager called and said he does ot demo to single people. i wound up buying from another dealer.
That’s absolutely bs. You sold the vacuum, who cares if person own or rent their house they use it the same and their money is the same!!! Do a Public Instagram, Facebook and Twitter post with the right #hashtags they may change and drop it. Found recently company’s being shady in general with fine print like that especially when it comes to screwing salesman make it right real fast. Negative reviews for any reason is a business worst nightmare. .
I was told the sale trumps the rules. Not sure if that was true a year ago. Said if you sell to a single guy in a crack house and it’s sold then it counts
Sorry to all of you who don’t believe in the rainbow, I don’t speak BROKE 🗣🗣 Use one on your mattress ONE time. I dare you to tell me it isn’t effective lmfao
The last vacuum always wins. You will never get all the dirt out. After vacuuming my daughters play rug and emptying the water FOUR times, I decided to just trash the rug and buy a new one.
I was new in The USA 2013 and We lived in the apartment, one lady asked me if she can do a demo in my place and i said yes, I had e2b and now I got the newest one SRX.. I got it for free because of their program Return of Investment. Did 12 demos 7sales.. they return my money through check plus I made commissions..
if the water was being continuously circulated and filtered as well...then maybe your point would be better taken...the way I see it though is that the water will get dirty just like a dry filter...so what's the difference ....??? Running your air through dirty water is no different than running it through a dirty, dry filter....
My mother gave me ours. It is approximately 15 years old. I have replaced 1 belt. This is the vacuum we use when we really need to clean the house. The belt was for the carpet attachment.
I don't disagree with any of this except that there must be a reason that Rainbow added a Hepa filter to the recent models. The water does a great job, you can see it. Maybe the hepa filter is for when you have clogged up the water with hair and fluff and there is dry stuff on top of the water?
Hepa filter is there to finish the bad filtration made by separator and water. It is even written in the user manual, troubleshooting section, as one of the possible problems "Unit discharges dust". They write that the reason of the problem can be a "Hole in HEPA Neutralizer". Page 20 in user manual, troubleshooting guide. So you can imagine what happens when you not anly make a hole to HEPA filter, but when you remove the HEPA at all.
I believe now, since most vac products are garbage you have to have one legally. Plus it’s nice if you do something dumb like not put water in it it still works. You do not have to change it but 5-10 years, where my dyson recommends 6-12 months
Rainbow vacuums are really good, everyone of my family has one at home. But there is one thing i always hated about the Rainbow presentations - they show the clean textile on the exhaust and say it's clean thanks to water filtration but they never mention that there is a huge HEPA filter catching all these microscopic particles after the water. Water filtration is great (still better than vacuum bags) but not perfect, especially when the water isn't filled properly, therefore there is that HEPA filter which has to be changed over time as well.
It's there as a last resort in case you let the water level get too low to work efficiently. You don't even need to check them often. Every 4-6 years I think.
Because rainbows are used in clean rooms, and because to get certified by the asthma and allergy foundation of America. I rinse the separator off every time. I’ve had my machine 8 years and the filter still looks brand new!
@@LadyPolgara222 Water can't get low, you just need to empty the basin more often if picking up that much crap. I have picked up tons of dog hair and had to dump and refill a few times.
Rainbow pioneered water vacs but then put an hepa filter in their latest machinces. Not truly water vacuum. They started out right but messed up their selling point by installing the one thing they critizised through the years: not one but two hepa filters.Filters clog like any other. I had the original Rainbow that was water based and after 15+ years I walked in a Robot dealership thinking they could repair it and showed me first hand how Rainbow messed up the original formula. I purchased a Robot vacuum and never looked back. If you want a true water vac Robot is the way to go. I sold Robot vacuums for about a year and I've seen first hand all I mentioned above.
I hate to break it to you but even Rainbows leak dust back into the air. Why do you think they put the Hepa filter on it? I sold them for 10 years and the older ones would have a build up of dirt near and on the exhaust cap. But filters are porous and that means "tiny little holes". But dust smaller than the holes on the Hepa filter go back out into your air. Still 100 times better than a regular vac though. If you want a better machine that leaks almost zero particles back into the air, then get a German made Vivenso. Cheaper than a Rainbow, but better. Hit me up if you want some more info on it. I am a distributor for Vivenso.
This style water filter vacuum came in Turkey in 2007 and after cleaning the house, your house will stink from dirty stinky water. You have to change water after every cleaning and it is pain in ass to do.
I recently am letting go of my Rainbow I have had for 60 years! It has served me VERY well with constant use and now is quite tired and overheating (wouldn’t you after all those years sucking up animal hairs and dirt?) My point is with proper maintenance after each use and very occasional service it will last. It even survived a fall down a flight of stairs 30 years ago! I will be welcoming a new Rainbow very soon.
Mine was free, in fact you can get it free , just ask your friends to watch a demo, no pressure to buy, just watch. Mine was free. Two of my friends, both allergist physicians bought them and all of my money was refunded.
I bought this machine 7 years ago and it's excellent I use it to clean the floor washing my split unit AC and cleaning and washing my car carpets and seat covers it is very use ful but too expensive in my country I bought it for 3300 usd😅
My parents had a "Rexair" vacuum cleaner, the previous name under which the Rainbow vacuum cleaner was marketed. This was in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Dad bought it used from a thrift store and mom used it for many years until the motor wore out. As far as I can remember, it did a good job of keeping dust from being redistributed in the house. The dirt and dust made the water in the reservoir black; mom would dump it in the toilet after cleaning the house. The current Rainbow vacuum features a supplemental HEPA filter, which the 1950s Rexair didn't have; hardly anybody had ever heard of HEPA filters then, because they were relatively new and only used in critical applications in industry. Unfortunately, HEPA filters eventually get clogged and need to be replaced; they're not cheap, compared to the paper bags used on some vacuum cleaners. A better solution in the long run is a central vacuum system that collects the dirt outside the living space and exhausts the air outside. That way, even if the filter isn't perfect, it doesn't matter, because the exhaust air won't be redistributing the dirt throughout the living space. I've also heard of people backing their vacuum cleaners up to the central air return grille and running the furnace blower without heat so that the vacuum exhaust can get filtered by the electrostatic air filter. It may sound silly, but probably works as well as a HEPA filter.
+Milosz Ostrow Sorry, but a central vacuum is actually NOT a better solution. For starters, most central vacuums are located in a basement or garage, & the air is NOT vented outside....it recirculates in the garage or basement. Every time you open the door to your garage to get in your car each morning to go to work, you're being exposed to all that dust your central vacuum spews into the air. Nilfisk-Advance, as well as a few other names, actually have HEPA central vacuum mufflers that go on the exhaust for this very reason. Also, bagless central vacuums have to be cleaned & emptied every 6 months with average household use....and when you do, you're exposed to TONS of dust in all that dirt! To the point you really should be wearing a white drywall dust mask. And the "self cleaning" filters they use are anything but that, clog easily & not pleasant to clean. As for the "True Cyclonic" central vacuums, no such thing exists, there is NO central vacuum system on the market that employs a cyclonic system similar to what Dyson or their knockoffs employ.....all the dust goes straight thru the motor on those systems, with a mesh screen to stop large particles. The ONLY WAY central vacuums are a better option is to: 1. Drilll a hole in the wall & vent it outside, & 2. Use a HEPA Cloth filter bag that is changed every 6 months, OR buy a water filtration central vacuum, which are made by DrainVac in Quebec Canada or Aqua Air in the USA. Otherwise, you're just as well off to use a portable vacuum with HEPA Cloth bags & a sealed HEPA filtration system on the exhaust, or a bagless vacuum that is dumped in a outside trash bin or down the toilet that has a sealed HEPA filtration system. Or of course, if you don't mind the set up & clean up each time, a Rainbow.
rob w "... the air is NOT vented outside....it recirculates in the garage or basement." I've seen quite a few central vacuum systems in my time, but _never_ with venting inside the building. Anyhow, what kind of dummy would install it that way? The ones that I've seen mounted in garages have a hole punched in the exterior wall for a PVC or ABS exhaust pipe, at the end of which is a down-turned elbow, covered with a screen to keep rain, bugs and rodents out. If I were to move into a place that vented a central vacuum inside the garage or somewhere in the living space, it would be one of the first things I'd get fixed. It's something a competent building inspector would notice and flag as a deficiency.
+Milosz Ostrow Well, your feeling about a building inspector flagging a central vac vented into a garage or basement as a deficiency, is totally incorrect. It is NOT a deficiency whatsoever, it would not interfere with electrical, mechanical or plumbing systems of a house. Furthermore, there is nothing "toxic" about the air a central vac exhausts in terms of emitting chemicals into the ambient air of a house. Unhygienic? In my mind, with all that dust central vacs exhaust, yes. Like I said above, all central vacs should have a HEPA exhaust filter on them OR vented outside.
+Luke Wilmer You would actually be totally wrong there. A central vacuum will match a high-end canister vacuum for cleaning power, but WILL NOT have more power. The reason why the manufacturers make you believe they do have more power is the motors most central vacs use are HUGE in comparison to a canister vacuum motor. Vacuum cleaner performance is measured in 2 terms, by inches of Waterlift & Cubic Feet per Minute of airflow (CFM). Most good central vacs will pull AT LEAST 130" inches Waterlift measured at the central vac itself. However, once you install the central vac & all that suction & airflow travels thru tons of plastic pipes in your house AND a 30 foot or 35 foot hose, it loses A LOT of that suction to begin with. Take a waterlift gauge & measure it at the central vac unit, then put your hose on a inlet & use that same gauge & measure it at the end of a 30 foot hose....what starts out as a machine that pulls 145" inches Waterlift, at the hose end your "working" inches of Waterlift winds up being about 110" inches to 115" inches Waterlift. Back in the old days, say 10 years ago, that would be good, but not by today's standards. Many portable canister vacuums will match or even BEAT a central vac for waterlift. The Sebo Airbelt D4 (110" ), Riccar Prima/Simplicity Wonder (110" ), Aerus Guardian Platinum (116" ), Perfect C103 (115" ) & Perfect C101 (125" ) portable canisters will all beat a central vac for overall cleaning performance.
rob w - I wrote _competent building inspector_. There are plenty of incompetent ones who wouldn't flag glaring deficiencies, as I've found through personal experience.
The hepa filter is required by law now. Dyson recommends changing 6 months, no one does that. Rainbow is 10 years since it’s stage 2 and 99%+ is captured in water when used correctly
there is absolutely no way this machine can remove humidity. if Rainbow is saying that, it's pure snake oil. it would need a refridgeration system or dessicants to remove humidity, two things it does not have! it can only ADD humidity!
Water filtration in Rainbow is so bad that they needed to add a Hepa filter to the end of the air flow chain. And it is even written in the user manual: The Rainbow water basin will not trap materials that are resistant to the wetting action of water, such as soot or ashes and powdery substances such as ceramic, drywall or plaster dust. So they will quickly clog the HEPA filter.
@@jordanyale7110 damn son, gotta try this with my brand new unit. Can’t believe it doesn’t work in my child run coal and drywall factory, guess I’ll just clean my house with it
Everyone says they paid 3300? I just bought one and with all the accessories it came out to 5400 with tax? I’m gonna return it I feel like I got scammed now! Good system tho!
If you bought the attachments such as the carpet shampooer etc. then yes you will have spent over 3,000. The standard model does not include those extras.
Air bypasses the water and the dirt falls into the water because of gravity. The water pan is built specifically to deliver the illusion of water filtration. But between the intake shield, water level and paraboloid shape water takes when in a circular motion (spreads outwards and upwards, lowering in the center and raising up the sides) allows even more air to bypass contact with water. Just the fact that an exhaust high efficiency particulate air filter is used should be obvious that there's no true water filtration. If there was true water filtration happening there would be no other type of filter needed, expect maybe activated carbon to remove smell... But the chance of bacteria and mold growing in the water pan after use if it's not completely dried is a guarantee. Much more then that of a "normal" waterless-vacuum. True water filtration would only happen if there was a hose going from the intake port of the water pan down to the bottom of the pan, being completely submerged under water. Followed up a lot of bubbles as air is forced in through the submerged hose. Think about it people... if you're worried about dust when dumping a bag less canister, invest in a bagged vacuum. Not this gimmick
in time, if its used a good bit, it will pay for itself(no buying bags)....especially...if you use all its capabilities, its remarkable.Also, it'll outperform regular vacuums. (performs= getting contaminants out of your 'stuff') Expensive? very. ugh. thanks to direct marketing.
See, in the first minutes there are a few problems with this guy, Tonnes of high-quality vacuums are HEPA certified, and they cost significantly less than a rainbow. Additionally, it won't regulate the humidity like this guy says, it can only add to the humidity. As an air purifier, "water washing" really does nothing more than potentially trapping smells, but even then, a simple charcoal filter will easily take care of it on an air purifier that costs orders of magnitude less. Not knocking rainbow, the whole concept is pretty neat, but there is really nothing special about these things other than their exorbitant price tag.
I am the guy in the video. Hepa filter vacuums plug up very quickly because the holes are so small. Water traps 99.6% of the dirt then the HEPA traps the tiny particles that the water misses. Yes, it does regulate the humidity either way because air going through water regulates humidity naturally. This was explained to me in depth by a university physics professor. Yes water works extreemly well as an air purifier which is why all of the high end paint shops use water bath filters to purify their air.
I would like to see a report/paper/article from said professor, because as far as my research has extended, to remove water from air, one needs to drop the ambient temperature below dew point. That is the only way to do it. Water isn't "sentient", it cannot regulate it's own humidity, it will continue to evaporate until the air has reached 100% humidity. The reason why paint shops use such water bath air filters is because its right for the application. Paint is "sticky" and if you were to run it through a cyclonic system, it would adhere to the sides of the cyclone and fill the system with paint residue. If you go into any wood shop, they will use a cyclonic system, as a water bath system would fill with wood pulp rendering it useless. Considering the price of a rainbow (over $3,000 new, with all attachments and accessories), one could buy a lifetime supply of HEPA media filters for a standard air purifier, a high-end vacuum, humidifier, hard floor cleaner and a carpet shampooer, with money to spare! _It just doesn't make sense_
thedementation666 See- Someone understands a “sponsored” ad when they are it. This guy takes us all for idiots and think there isn’t anyone smarter than a salesman.
@@brettbret8836 You are just lying. Maybe you don't know it, but those vacuums have bags that catch 99.8% of the dirt. That is the reason why I need to wash a HEPA filter in my Karcher vacuum only once per two years. Only once per two years I do something with water. With the Rainbow you have to do this ugly work with water every cleaning and you have to let it dry all parts separated, otherwise the Rainbow smells like hell.
Have you seen a demo on the rainbow, bag fillers put dirty air back in your house, the rainbow washes the air and put clean Air back. So look it up they been around, they first came out in 1936 so they must be something to keep them going
@@edwardschot9805 not true, bag fillers do not necessarily put dirty air back in the house - some of them use HEPA filters (just like Rainbow does, in addition to the water filter) to stop the dirt.
Rui Santinha... Rainbow uses water and a HEPA filter... The HEPA is for bacteria, germs, viruses, tobacco smoke and pollen. Those particles don't get wet so they pass the water. I changed the filter on my Rainbow 5 years after buying it... there was only a very fine dust on the engine (My dad smokes)The truth is those who have Rainbow sometimes don't fill it with water up to the right level and that causes those machines to get very dirty on their engines.
Yeah, not only does it pick up the dirt that other vacuum cleaners leave behind but when it does, you can literally see the dirt in the water! It's gross but it's CRAZY! Then, once you're finished, you just dump the water down the toilet or, if you have a lot of carpet debris then you can put a strainer over the toilet and then pour the water into the strainer and down the toilet and then take the contents of the strainer into the garbage. All gone...no buying bags, no vacuum smell or anything! The whole area (if not the house) smells and feels cleaner! Also, it has a floor attachment so you don't need to use a broom when you're doing the floors, an attachment for upholstery (couches, chairs, the car), a wand for the corners and an attachment for dusting (so you don't need to walk around with a duster). I had mine for 18 years and then someone stole it and I got another one. It's expensive but it's worth it because it's just that good!
The water does get crazy gross, my parents still have theirs that they got when they had me 26 yrs ago, now I've got my own. I used to hate dumping that water, now I'd rather do that than leave all that stuff inside my home.
great if you don't have carpet. A cannister vacuum is a cannister vacuum - ok for hard floors. No high cfm vertical air flow means no lifting sand and grit. Then you hire a "steam cleaner" and make mud. Or worse yet use the Rainbow carpet "shampooer". Some of the filthiest carpets I have ever come across are in homes where they're using a Rainbow.
My family has one and I'm not the biggest fan. Ability and cleaning is great. But it's bulky and hard to move around. The model we have has a long cord but the vacuum hose is pretty short making you have to move the machine a lot despite the long cord. Also the cord gets in the way of the wheels and vacuum at times. I wish they had a longer hose initially and cut the cord length down a bit.
It may take slightly longer to clean with this, given its bulky size, but I guarantee you are saving energy in the long run. I would much rather take twice as long to clean something, knowing it will be cleaned right. We watched a demonstration at my sister in law's house last night (she vacuumed before we got there). She has a brand new hoover that she paid $200 for. The Rainbow salesman, said, "Okay, I want you to vacuum over this same spot 50 times with your Hoover". She did it. Then he said, "Okay, now, vacuum over the same spot ONCE with the Rainbow". You wouldn't believe how much dirt it picked up. The Hoover is much lighter and more maneuverable, but you tell me, which one worked better?
I'm not arguing the cleaning, it's just the maneuverability of the the main unit. If they had a longer hose the unit would not be needed to be moved so often.
And where am I supposed to dump a huge bowl of filthy water filled with pet hair? The toilet? Not unless YOU want come over and unclog the enormous amount of pet hair that get stuck in the traps. Outside you say? Yeah... I'll just bring a huge bowl filled to the brim with filthy water onto a 14 story apartment elevator and not spill a drop. My property management and neighbors will love me for that.
This seems to be the case with all of the highest end vacuums (Rainbow, Filter Queen, Kirby, Electrolux/Aerus to name a few). Great machines, but it's hard to get past the sleezy sales pitches.
Something romantic about a traveling sales man. Reminds me of my grandma telling me about how Sears and dept. stores used to have people to aid you buying and looking for what you need
Loved the Rainbow vacuum cleaner but I lost it to the ex wife during our divorce...damn it man!!! I would love to get another one though. Do you guys do military discounts???
I am the guy in the video and I can hook you up with a sweet discount. Feel free to email or call me for more info at 208-263-8849 or brett2726@gmail.com
Dude, Go online and get a used one for cheap. The late 80s D4 model is probably the best they ever made. That rainbow salesman up there knows that to be true. I have one but want a chrome D2.
Why you're not saying that it has hepa filter behind the water. Do a proper test without hepa filter. I wonder what amount stays in the water and what is the price of hepa filter?
I have a rainbow vacuum and the hepa filter is use more as a secondary air filter if you look closely right behind the gray latch which hold the water basin in place to the left are grills and that is where the air that goes that passes throw the hepa filter go. So even if he ran the vacuum with out the hepa filter all you would see on the cloth is just dust on is because what ever get sucked into the water gets trapped inside the water basin. But to get a replacement filter for model I have on amazon is $30.85 and I only change it once a year. So the rainbow acts like a dry and wet air filter.
The hepa filter is not built-in I own an e2 and all I have to do to take out the filter is on the bottom there are clips that you need to push them in then the filter pops out. Why would they make the filter not removable a new rainbow cost $2500 and I don't think they would designed the vacuum that since your saying that the filter can't be removed once the filter is full you throw out your $2500 vacuum and go buy another one if you had that kind of money to burn lucky you but I would rather buy a $30 replacement filter then buy a new vacuum when the filter gets full.
Guess what happens when this builtin filter get clogged? Moreover moisture & dust together will make it clogged faster and more efficiently, so just simple vacuuming with another vacuum most likely won't work. You will need a replacement.
+Danielle Hudson Not true, every time i clean i use essential oils and I've been doing that for 20 years. No problems what-so-ever. Just add a little bit in the water.
+Danielle Hudson thx, i saw one on Amazon but for about $ 1899.99. prime member price. I'm just trying to figure the best price for the item. I try to read reviews and comments from others to see if it is worth it. thank you for your time.
Water washed and Hepa washed air! Yes there is a big HEPA filter on the back of the vacuum that cleans the air. You must change it once a year or when the machine losses power. They will tell you that when you will purchase it. Water does not clean the air 100% not even 80% if you ask me, that is why there is a hepa filter. Search for: rainbow vacuum repair. You will see that the motor gets dirty. Water does not catch everything so dont be foled by the water filtration shit. This vacuum cleaner is good but its all in the brush that it uses, the machine is nothing special, 200$ vacuum cleaners that use water are the same. The brush is the boss in rainbow.
Yes you can use your essential oils. Will not hurt it. I sale rainbows and I use oils, but you do want to clean it good with or without. Don't put in your dishwasher. I hope you enjoy your rainbow I use my rainbow all most every day
It's just crap and you need to think a bit to figure it out. If it would be so good these machines would never require to clean up the dust in the output because would be clean! All rubbish! By the way if this technology is so great want you believe that all high tech companies would not go for the same and research on it launching their own products?
These vacuums do work as well as they claim. The reason why all high tech companies dont launch their own version is this: The Rainbow's water/dirt collection tank has to be filled before and cleaned out after each time you use the vacuum no matter how brief you want to use it. And the tank gets disgusting each time you use it too. Its really a high maintenance vacuum in that regard, and most people dont want to deal with all that every time they use their vacuum.
Dyson sucks your money out of your wallet! Get a Rainbow or Electolux! Rainbows are great for party bongs! lol I had one and used essential oils and never had any issues with it, it's really a good vacuum cleaner!
I traded my dyson in on a rainbow. The dyson didn’t do my dogs and wife’s mess justice. Plus the new model is a full time quiet air filter. Reduces a lot of my dog hair floating around problem
I have a dyson ball, great vacuum. May even have more power technically. I grew up with a rainbow. Even with the dyson attachment kit, it still didn’t compare to a rainbows versatility of what it can do, ease of cleaning and life time. Big thing people never do is change the “certified hepa filter” google it, dyson recommends every 6 months or yearly!! Rainbows water filter does such a great job that their hepa filter is changed every 10 years! Haven’t seen a 10 year dyson yet..
If the air is so clean as you say why does the rainbow has a hepa filter in the Output.? Why do you see maintenance cleaning all the dust powder inside the engine bay in you tube videos? Where is the air passing through the water?
Yeah I used to own one of these and I exchanged it for a water Matic filter magic vacuum cleaner and I like it a lot better cuz all you're getting with this vacuum is mud
Well personally I don’t believe in nun of that black magic witch craft. But best I can recolect anytime you apply water to dirt your end product is not dissimilar to mud
+Ron Krit there are other options. It takes a while to explain and it depends on your situation. Call me when you get a minute and I can explain the options. Brett 208.449.3979
+Ron Krit Similar machines are the Canadian Sirena, Thermax AF2 and others,as well as wet/dry central vacuum systems from Drainvac out of the Province of Quebec and the Canadian invented Aqua-Air out of Utah. Aqua-Air also has a portable machine but I know little about it. I think it's developed more for wet pickup, mostly.
+WJCTechyman If you are going to invest the money it is wise to spend a little more and get the one that you know will be around for parts, service, and upgradeablitiy over the years. Most companies that make these water vacuums are only around for 5 or 10 years. Rexair the maker of the Rainbow has been around for 70 years and they are sold all over the world. Being such a large company they are able to invest the most in research and development. As a result they have consistently had , by far, the best product. In addition they are able to stand behind their warranty because they have service centers everywhere and will probably be in business for many years to come.
+Luke Wilmer Rainbows have to be stored off of the basin when they are done using them. Otherwise they rust inside. Many people store it on the basin. That is a huge risk of getting a used one. Our service person can't tell if it is rusted or corroded until he takes it apart.
+John Riggs Good old antidotal evidence. But the fact remains, if you actually compare it to other vacuums in the same price range, it's demolished. There's a reason why you don't see other vacuum cleaner brands going this same route. It's because it's very heavy, needlessly complicated and does a worse job than standard types of vacuum. And when it does break down, it's a fortune to replace. I'm sorry you bought a crappy vacuum and want to defend its honour. But please read around on sites not sponsored by Rainbow. For the same price you could by the top of the line Royal Vacuum that would destroy a Rainbow. Even in Rainbows supposedly amazing filtration, a Miele canister vacuum will do better for cheaper. When the vacuum repair man shows me an entire back closet of broken Rainbows, that's the reason he said not to buy them. I went looking for what vacuum to buy, read 3rd party sources that showed they're garbage for the money, even vacuum salesman said to stay away,
+ShantyGaming And let's be honest here, there's nothing I could say right now that would change your mind. Your Rainbow salesman has got you hook line and sinker. Please I beg you, next time you have to buy a vacuum cleaner, spend a month researching what to buy. Hopefully if that's the case you will at least be able to go and down stair much easier. There's tons of info out there showing exactly what I'm saying. It's not like I have some vendetta against Rainbow. I just want to help people not get ripped off just like the people who by Dyson vacuums.
My E2 Rainbow will be 9 years old in August. Best machine ever and still works today as good as it did when I took it out of the box. I never have to dust....I may dust the furniture with and actual day 3 or 4 times per year. These machines are well worth the price.
I love Rainbow vacuums. Hands down the best ever. Using the water to trap the dirt/dust is genius and then clean air comes out after. I used to have one years ago and will most likely be buying another one here very soon. Truly the best on the market.
swordfish00007 Dam rights it is, I frigin love mine
Buy one off of the internet.
How much is it?
Taliba Imhotep few grand but you never worry about breathing dirt plus had mine for 15 years and replaced only a basin and something else, and ive seen used for 500 on eBay, still worth it
Been using this product for 20 years, its absolutely worth the money.
We got suckered in to buying a Rainbow back in 2006, and we kept it about a year before regretting it. The big issue is that it is not a very convenient system to use. Every time you use it, you have to fill up the water basin, vacuum, then empty the water basin, and clean it out. For small things, like our kids spilling Cheerios, this became a pain. So we ended up with a Dyson upright, and the Rainbow saw less and less use. The final nail in the coffin was forgetting we had left the water in it, and after that, we never could get the smell out. A couple years ago, we agreed to do another demo, as a friend of a friend had started selling them. We made it very clear we were not interested in buying, but they wanted to do the demo anyways, as I guess they thought they could change our mind. When the demo was over, I was shocked to learn that the price had ballooned up to $4,000....for a vacuum! Needless to say, we did not bite this time. On a side note, always be suspicious of anything only sold in your home via a demo, party or whatever. It's not on Amazon, or WalMart for a reason.
Emptying a bowl definitely isn’t very convenient so I continued to use my van vac and now I can’t breath in my house again. Also my dyson doesn’t like dryer sheets as much as my rainbow.
Thank you for sharing that!
I love this vacuum. It’s been in my family for over 20 years. Works great!
I bought my Rainbow in 1995 and its still going strong, best purchase ever.
I LOVE my rainbow!! I’ve had the same one for over 20 years. It works better than any other vacuum I’ve had!
I bought my first rainbow (my allergy doctor recommended it) in 1985. I still have it, use it near daily and still love it! The only repair I've had was to replace the cord. I started selling them in 1990 because I simply loved mine soooo much! I put eucalyptus oil in it when I'm vacuuming in the winter to help my kids with respiratory bugs. I use lemon and orange oil in the summer just for the fun of it!
I LOVE this machine. Had my first one for over 25 years now and then bought another new one just because... now one is upstairs and one at the office. Excellent product for SOOO many reasons which you point out Ben. Get Rainbow vac for your air and clean home and Saladmaster Cooking equipment for the inside of your body! You just can't go wrong. Nothing cheap here for either product line.... but SOOOOO worth it and save more on other things in your life, but you won't realize this until you own them and use them!
i sold them back in the late 80s. My mother bought one and still has it till this day. 28 years and counting. Has always worked great and in my opinion one of the best and most reliable vacuum cleaners out there. Today they appear even better. I myself who has had 3 dogs at almost all given times in the past 30 years, unless you vacuum 3 times a week, no vacuum does a real complete job. Dog hairs are the real enemy. I took my mom's Rainbow and used it in my home comparing it to several different bagged style units. Pickup power is really good on the Rainbow. Regardless of the some of the "Good" bag vacuums, the Rainbow seemed to do better at pulling the dirt/hair. Although, on my carpet, I had to make 3 full passes on my carpet before the tank didn't appear like mud. I would say I was not vacuuming enough......
If I wanted to buy one these days i would. Problem is most of my house is tiled. Sweeping and mopping is so much better than vacuuming now.....I recommend them if you have the dough.
Mopping is essentially spreading dirt and mud on your floors. Sweeping kicks around bacteria, allergens, dirt, and dander if you own pets. I have a rainbow and I’d recommend it for tile/hardwood floors. There are many attachments meant to clean not just carpet! Walls, mattresses, refrigerator coils, dryer lint traps, curtains, tile, wood, carpet, etc. it also purifies the air. It’s really the best cleaning decision all around regardless I think!
@@ILovHelloKitty13 "Mopping is essentially spreading dirt and mud on your floors." Only if one does not know how to mop.
@@ILovHelloKitty13 You are so right, my whole house is hardwood and granite, I also have Dyson stick, and only after vacuuming with rainbow my floors feel really clean, I walk barefoot so I can tell the difference. I have 4 dogs and 3 cats.
@@ScooterFXRS When you wash your floors on your knees and change water every 10 sq feet than you can say your floors are clean, there is no good and bad mopping.
ScooterFXRS I agree to some extent and I don’t think mopping is disgusting or anything. But if you think about it, you’re gathering germs on the outside of a fabric and spreading them around the floor. Then you’re dunking your dirty mop head in clean water, making it dirty as well, then spreading around more germs. Rinse and repeat.
With the rainbow you’re spraying down water & soap, then sucking it up completely. As well as being able to scrub with the 8 different attachments. (that are pretty dang easy to put on lol.)
I’m not trying to sell you the rainbow, I’m just saying from experience it’s the gold standard.
My old roommate had a rainbow. I did most of the cleaning, so I used it a lot. It was a little more work to set up and clean afterwards, but I'll never forget how well it worked. You could feel just how clean the air in that house, and obviously the carpets, were after a cleaning. I plan to get one for myself soon.
I just bought one and I haven't eaten in 3 days. Lol.
I bought a Rainbow in 1985 and I still have and use the same one. It's better than any other vacuum I have tried.
No it is not. It is very dirty, because your model still doesn't have a HEPA filter. Sorry.
@@mareksykora5197 The water traps the dust. On the new rainbows the HEPA filter honestly doesn't do that much, but it's nice to have.
@@User3rror Look at your Rainbow's user manual. Water doesn't trap all dust. It doesn't trap ash or ceramic materials from bricks from walls etc.
I will NEVER stop regretting selling mine for pennies on the dollar when I got tired of dragging that heavy thing around, hitting my ankles! It's a heavy vacuum, it's clunky, but it's the BEST vac out there.
Which model did you have? The new one is much lighter
I would suggest checking garage sales, that is where I got one of mine (I have 2). Or try ebay, watch the prices, and make sure it is marked 'new'. Or even go to the Rainbow website. Good luck!
I saw the phone number to the guy that did this video--208-263-8849, email brett2726@gmail.com. Maybe he could give you some assistance.
We just got the spx new as 2019 model and I grew up with a SE from 1994 and there has been a lot of improvement even over previous model that I believe would definitely alleviate some of your issues
I have a (first gen?) that my mom bought like 20 years ago. It still runs like I just purchased it and still cleans the air wonderfully. I can't recommend this vacuum enough! I love my rainbow vacuum!!!
Edit: I guess the model I have is the E2. I had never heard of rainbow vacuums before my mom purchased her vacuum so I assumed the company was relatively new.
The Rexair Rainbow models go back to the 1920s. I think my grandmother had a model B.
the greatest vacuum you can ever buy, in fact the best
I've had one for 7 years.
Pros:
* It is the most effect cleaner I've ever used.
* It is durable; extremely well-made (in the USA).
Cons:
*Expensive (New, they're about $1,500.)
* Cumbersome. You cannot just plug it in and use. There is substantial prep, including adding clean water, hooking up the large hose and the attachments you are going to use.
* You cannot simply store it away after you vacuum. You must empty the old water, clean the system, which means wiping down the inside of the power unit. The dirty water and debris in the bowl has to be discarded (very messy), the hoses must be rinsed and hung out to dry.
* Not very maneuverable. (My wife won't use it; it's too difficult for her to pull around.)
Not sure what you mean regarding rinsing out the hoses. I have the SRX & only have to dump, wash & let dry the water bowl & check the separator to make sure it's not clogged. The hose never gets wet.
After using all kinds of vacuums for more than fifty years I can vouch for the rainbow. I am so grateful I spent my money in it. When I die is going to one of my children.
I got my Rainbow 2 days ago. I am so happy with my purchase. I have 3 kids, 2 cats, and a dog. I was vacuuming at least 2 times a day, and dusting multiple times a day. No more!! I am in heaven with this system. There is no pet hair or dust settled on my counters when I wake up. Nothing sticking to the bottom of my feet. It is an incredibly expensive investment for your home, but man, it is really nice to clean, it stay clean, and you don't feel discouraged from working with machines that simply can not add up to this system.
I love rainbow vacuum. 20 years ago, my brother had asthma from our home carpet and my parents got a rainbow vacuum, after they got this vacuum my brother had less and less asthma attack. Fast forward today I have my own house now and I got rainbow vacuum. By the way my parents have same vacuum from 20 years ago and still up and running. Had to service twice but still worth it.
dexter tolentino
We had our Rainbow for almost 25 years before it gave out. Older model from the 80s! And yes we used it to clean the air as well and amazing machine! I believe that my kids grew up with less contaminants from our houses we lived in with Rugs. None of my 3 kids ever had asthma or breathing issue's! Time to get our 2nd unit in 25 years!!
Used to have a vacuum shop, by far the best vacuum out there. My favorite vacuum to use but the worst vacuum to fix, very technical especially when putting all those components and aluminum fans back in place.
Why did you ever have to take them apart? We use to take our own apart at the shop just to tune the brushes up.
@@alwaysopen7970 tune the brushes up? What does that mean?
He comprado esta aspiradora y no soy agente de venta. Soy solo una cliente más. Y puedo decir que tengo desde un trapeador (usamos en Cuba -- palo en forma de T), hasta robot, Dyson, etc) Hasta llegar a Rainbow Y CREANME ES EL MEJOR PRODUCTO QUE EXISTE HOY POR HOY. NO HAY NADA, PERO NADA QUE SI SIQUIERA SE IGUALE.
Si quieres una casa limpia, muy, muy limpia. Debes comprar Rainbow. I't the best. I'm very happy now.
I grew up with one of these Rainbow machine - 30 years ago. And it worked strong forever until my younger brothers decided to experiment with the mechanics of the motor. I think I may invest in one for my own home.

Nice presentation. Thank you - we love our rainbow! Other than the main feature in cleaning the carpet, the accessories are nothing but awesome additional benefits. My cars has never been clean inside as they are now and those car scents, gone! the aroma oils, super!
I have had one since the late 80s - $900 back then - and sold them for a year up until the point I was embarrassed to ask people for $1200 for one. Now they have HEPA filters? We use to rag on those things. Do they still do the hose to hose contest with Kirby vacs? The Rainbow use to suck the Kirby bag flat.
It does work great but in the end it is a way overpriced vacuum. You can pick them up dirt cheap on Ebay.
The one thing I found out about a few years after I got mine was the beater bar in the power nozzle had a nylon bar that if nicked or scratched would shred your carpet. I got a 100% brush replacement and carpets look way better; I replaced the carpet 3 years ago and it still looks great. The carpet shampoo attachment sucks ass, I vacuum well and call a guy who does real carpet cleaning for me. The old squeegee is handy but the other attachments are a pain.
I was a marketing director/office manager so learned how to disassemble/repair the things. You can find parts all over the internet as well as videos of how to do so.
The one thing Rexair should have looked into was putting a heavier gauge power cord on the thing because it draws too much amperage and the cord actually gets hot.
Drop the price down to $500 and the thing makes sense. Get rid of all of the silly bullshit toys that come with it and sell it as a vacuum, which is all it is.
At 60 it still helped with dust from a recent renovation
Be wary of the program!
The rainbow is great really. However, we entered the program and sold like 7 out of the 12 demos we did. 7! Unfortunately, the fine print stated we HAD to have only 4 renters for the demos the rest had to be home owners. So, even with our 7 sold. We didnt qualify for completing the program. They waited 2 months, until yesterday, to tell us this info. Now, we have 1 week to find 1 more demo, who fits their demographics. Even if they buy the vacuum it wont count towards our program unless they fit into the specificiations.
This is so misleading in many ways. We did do a 13th show literally last night. Hoping to finish the 12th qualifying show. Today we get an email from the rainbow company stating the the county records are not updated. And because the homeowner recently purchsed the home in june it does not reflect their name, it just says it was sold but not to whom.
I had no plans to ask all my friends wether they own their home and show proof. If i would have know this i would have opted out. They are worse than pushy salesman cause at least you dont get ropped in and do all the hard work taking them to all your friends houses and in the end having to foot the bill for a very expensive vacuum.
Yes. Their program is you doing all their dirty work.
my aunt bought a rainbow and gave my name for a demo. along with 5 other peoples names so she could get a free shampooerthe manager called and said he does ot demo to single people. i wound up buying from another dealer.
That’s absolutely bs. You sold the vacuum, who cares if person own or rent their house they use it the same and their money is the same!!! Do a Public Instagram, Facebook and Twitter post with the right #hashtags they may change and drop it. Found recently company’s being shady in general with fine print like that especially when it comes to screwing salesman make it right real fast. Negative reviews for any reason is a business worst nightmare. .
I was told the sale trumps the rules. Not sure if that was true a year ago. Said if you sell to a single guy in a crack house and it’s sold then it counts
luv the rainbow...awesome investment
Sorry to all of you who don’t believe in the rainbow, I don’t speak BROKE 🗣🗣
Use one on your mattress ONE time. I dare you to tell me it isn’t effective lmfao
Use a normal vacuum, will do the same
my girlfriend and I got ours yesterday and I steam cleaned the night before and I was shocked at how much was left behind that the rainbow picked up
Myles Moroz ua-cam.com/video/Pqoe4Dc8Sc4/v-deo.html
The last vacuum always wins. You will never get all the dirt out. After vacuuming my daughters play rug and emptying the water FOUR times, I decided to just trash the rug and buy a new one.
May ask how much you bought it for?

Can you do a comparison between the newest model Rainbow, Sirena and Quantum vacuum? Which one has the most power, cleans the air better etc.
I was new in The USA 2013 and We lived in the apartment, one lady asked me if she can do a demo in my place and i said yes, I had e2b and now I got the newest one SRX.. I got it for free because of their program Return of Investment.
Did 12 demos 7sales.. they return my money through check plus I made commissions..
I have a central vacuum system. It simply exhausts outside
if the water was being continuously circulated and filtered as well...then maybe your point would be better taken...the way I see it though is that the water will get dirty just like a dry filter...so what's the difference ....??? Running your air through dirty water is no different than running it through a dirty, dry filter....
Rainbow vacuums are the best
My mother gave me ours. It is approximately 15 years old. I have replaced 1 belt. This is the vacuum we use when we really need to clean the house.
The belt was for the carpet attachment.
I don't disagree with any of this except that there must be a reason that Rainbow added a Hepa filter to the recent models. The water does a great job, you can see it. Maybe the hepa filter is for when you have clogged up the water with hair and fluff and there is dry stuff on top of the water?
Hepa filter is there to finish the bad filtration made by separator and water. It is even written in the user manual, troubleshooting section, as one of the possible problems "Unit discharges dust". They write that the reason of the problem can be a "Hole in HEPA Neutralizer". Page 20 in user manual, troubleshooting guide. So you can imagine what happens when you not anly make a hole to HEPA filter, but when you remove the HEPA at all.
I believe now, since most vac products are garbage you have to have one legally. Plus it’s nice if you do something dumb like not put water in it it still works. You do not have to change it but 5-10 years, where my dyson recommends 6-12 months
I have it. I like it. It works as intended.
Rainbow vacuums are really good, everyone of my family has one at home. But there is one thing i always hated about the Rainbow presentations - they show the clean textile on the exhaust and say it's clean thanks to water filtration but they never mention that there is a huge HEPA filter catching all these microscopic particles after the water.
Water filtration is great (still better than vacuum bags) but not perfect, especially when the water isn't filled properly, therefore there is that HEPA filter which has to be changed over time as well.
If a water filter is so great why did rainbow start adding hepa filters on the new model ?
It's there as a last resort in case you let the water level get too low to work efficiently. You don't even need to check them often. Every 4-6 years I think.
Because rainbows are used in clean rooms, and because to get certified by the asthma and allergy foundation of America. I rinse the separator off every time. I’ve had my machine 8 years and the filter still looks brand new!
They’ve been around for more than 80 years. They just keep improving their products as new tech comes out 🤷🏼♀️ I say hats off to em
@@LadyPolgara222 2.5 to 3 yrs is what I've been told. You can easily clean it too.
@@LadyPolgara222
Water can't get low, you just need to empty the basin more often if picking up that much crap. I have picked up tons of dog hair and had to dump and refill a few times.
Which model of vacuum do you have on this video? 😄 Also would you recomend buying this from the direct manufacture or from where?
Rainbow pioneered water vacs but then put an hepa filter in their latest machinces. Not truly water vacuum. They started out right but messed up their selling point by installing the one thing they critizised through the years: not one but two hepa filters.Filters clog like any other. I had the original Rainbow that was water based and after 15+ years I walked in a Robot dealership thinking they could repair it and showed me first hand how Rainbow messed up the original formula. I purchased a Robot vacuum and never looked back. If you want a true water vac Robot is the way to go. I sold Robot vacuums for about a year and I've seen first hand all I mentioned above.
I hate to break it to you but even Rainbows leak dust back into the air. Why do you think they put the Hepa filter on it? I sold them for 10 years and the older ones would have a build up of dirt near and on the exhaust cap. But filters are porous and that means "tiny little holes". But dust smaller than the holes on the Hepa filter go back out into your air. Still 100 times better than a regular vac though. If you want a better machine that leaks almost zero particles back into the air, then get a German made Vivenso. Cheaper than a Rainbow, but better. Hit me up if you want some more info on it. I am a distributor for Vivenso.
Isn't the rainbow vacuum a pyramid scheme?
will No
Why would you purchase vacuum cleaner, because it is not a pyramid scheme or because it works?
I’d say so, but on the other hand they start you off around 18$ an hour..... so they’re still top level even for a beginner.
Schemes don't have anything of value. The Rainbow works awesome.
Amen, it's totally a pyramid scheme....
This style water filter vacuum came in Turkey in 2007 and after cleaning the house, your house will stink from dirty stinky water. You have to change water after every cleaning and it is pain in ass to do.
It’s very hard to empty a container and wash. You take it off and flip it into a trash can. When I use my canister filter my house smells like dogs
I recently am letting go of my Rainbow I have had for 60 years! It has served me VERY well with constant use and now is quite tired and overheating (wouldn’t you after all those years sucking up animal hairs and dirt?) My point is with proper maintenance after each use and very occasional service it will last. It even survived a fall down a flight of stairs 30 years ago! I will be welcoming a new Rainbow very soon.
Wow, 60 years 😮Thanks for the testimonial Nancy!
I have one from 2007, now they are 3,300. That is ridiculous.
Mine was free, in fact you can get it free , just ask your friends to watch a demo, no pressure to buy, just watch. Mine was free. Two of my friends, both allergist physicians bought them and all of my money was refunded.
Refurbished - 500.00
@@jimmyalbert5882 not free. You did their dirty work and that was your payout
They are like $3,956 now. You can trade in a broom and get 769$ off . My parents bought theirs in 95 and it wasn’t much cheaper.
I bought this machine 7 years ago and it's excellent I use it to clean the floor washing my split unit AC and cleaning and washing my car carpets and seat covers it is very use ful but too expensive in my country I bought it for 3300 usd😅
Awesome stuff !!! Thanks for the upload Ben!
my mother in law just gave me hers and she haven't even used it.But I need some help on how to set it up.
My parents had a "Rexair" vacuum cleaner, the previous name under which the Rainbow vacuum cleaner was marketed. This was in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Dad bought it used from a thrift store and mom used it for many years until the motor wore out. As far as I can remember, it did a good job of keeping dust from being redistributed in the house. The dirt and dust made the water in the reservoir black; mom would dump it in the toilet after cleaning the house.
The current Rainbow vacuum features a supplemental HEPA filter, which the 1950s Rexair didn't have; hardly anybody had ever heard of HEPA filters then, because they were relatively new and only used in critical applications in industry. Unfortunately, HEPA filters eventually get clogged and need to be replaced; they're not cheap, compared to the paper bags used on some vacuum cleaners. A better solution in the long run is a central vacuum system that collects the dirt outside the living space and exhausts the air outside. That way, even if the filter isn't perfect, it doesn't matter, because the exhaust air won't be redistributing the dirt throughout the living space. I've also heard of people backing their vacuum cleaners up to the central air return grille and running the furnace blower without heat so that the vacuum exhaust can get filtered by the electrostatic air filter. It may sound silly, but probably works as well as a HEPA filter.
+Milosz Ostrow Sorry, but a central vacuum is actually NOT a better solution. For starters, most central vacuums are located in a basement or garage, & the air is NOT vented outside....it recirculates in the garage or basement. Every time you open the door to your garage to get in your car each morning to go to work, you're being exposed to all that dust your central vacuum spews into the air. Nilfisk-Advance, as well as a few other names, actually have HEPA central vacuum mufflers that go on the exhaust for this very reason. Also, bagless central vacuums have to be cleaned & emptied every 6 months with average household use....and when you do, you're exposed to TONS of dust in all that dirt! To the point you really should be wearing a white drywall dust mask. And the "self cleaning" filters they use are anything but that, clog easily & not pleasant to clean. As for the "True Cyclonic" central vacuums, no such thing exists, there is NO central vacuum system on the market that employs a cyclonic system similar to what Dyson or their knockoffs employ.....all the dust goes straight thru the motor on those systems, with a mesh screen to stop large particles. The ONLY WAY central vacuums are a better option is to: 1. Drilll a hole in the wall & vent it outside, & 2. Use a HEPA Cloth filter bag that is changed every 6 months, OR buy a water filtration central vacuum, which are made by DrainVac in Quebec Canada or Aqua Air in the USA. Otherwise, you're just as well off to use a portable vacuum with HEPA Cloth bags & a sealed HEPA filtration system on the exhaust, or a bagless vacuum that is dumped in a outside trash bin or down the toilet that has a sealed HEPA filtration system. Or of course, if you don't mind the set up & clean up each time, a Rainbow.

"... the air is NOT vented outside....it recirculates in the garage or basement."
I've seen quite a few central vacuum systems in my time, but _never_ with venting inside the building. Anyhow, what kind of dummy would install it that way? The ones that I've seen mounted in garages have a hole punched in the exterior wall for a PVC or ABS exhaust pipe, at the end of which is a down-turned elbow, covered with a screen to keep rain, bugs and rodents out.
If I were to move into a place that vented a central vacuum inside the garage or somewhere in the living space, it would be one of the first things I'd get fixed. It's something a competent building inspector would notice and flag as a deficiency.
+Milosz Ostrow Well, your feeling about a building inspector flagging a central vac vented into a garage or basement as a deficiency, is totally incorrect. It is NOT a deficiency whatsoever, it would not interfere with electrical, mechanical or plumbing systems of a house. Furthermore, there is nothing "toxic" about the air a central vac exhausts in terms of emitting chemicals into the ambient air of a house. Unhygienic? In my mind, with all that dust central vacs exhaust, yes. Like I said above, all central vacs should have a HEPA exhaust filter on them OR vented outside.
+Luke Wilmer You would actually be totally wrong there. A central vacuum will match a high-end canister vacuum for cleaning power, but WILL NOT have more power. The reason why the manufacturers make you believe they do have more power is the motors most central vacs use are HUGE in comparison to a canister vacuum motor. Vacuum cleaner performance is measured in 2 terms, by inches of Waterlift & Cubic Feet per Minute of airflow (CFM). Most good central vacs will pull AT LEAST 130" inches Waterlift measured at the central vac itself. However, once you install the central vac & all that suction & airflow travels thru tons of plastic pipes in your house AND a 30 foot or 35 foot hose, it loses A LOT of that suction to begin with. Take a waterlift gauge & measure it at the central vac unit, then put your hose on a inlet & use that same gauge & measure it at the end of a 30 foot hose....what starts out as a machine that pulls 145" inches Waterlift, at the hose end your "working" inches of Waterlift winds up being about 110" inches to 115" inches Waterlift. Back in the old days, say 10 years ago, that would be good, but not by today's standards. Many portable canister vacuums will match or even BEAT a central vac for waterlift. The Sebo Airbelt D4 (110" ), Riccar Prima/Simplicity Wonder (110" ), Aerus Guardian Platinum (116" ), Perfect C103 (115" ) & Perfect C101 (125" ) portable canisters will all beat a central vac for overall cleaning performance.
rob w - I wrote _competent building inspector_. There are plenty of incompetent ones who wouldn't flag glaring deficiencies, as I've found through personal experience.
Thats the same as my one. I love my rainbow. Really clean it.
It's interesting that you didn't mention the HEPA dry filter in that Rainbow...
The hepa filter is required by law now. Dyson recommends changing 6 months, no one does that. Rainbow is 10 years since it’s stage 2 and 99%+ is captured in water when used correctly
@@rondagregorius9500 So you are saying that there are no legally sold vacuums without HEPA filters?
there is absolutely no way this machine can remove humidity. if Rainbow is saying that, it's pure snake oil. it would need a refridgeration system or dessicants to remove humidity, two things it does not have! it can only ADD humidity!
Rexair doesn't claim so, the dude in the video did.
Water filtration in Rainbow is so bad that they needed to add a Hepa filter to the end of the air flow chain. And it is even written in the user manual:
The Rainbow water basin will not trap materials that are resistant to the wetting action of water, such as soot or
ashes and powdery substances such as ceramic, drywall or plaster dust. So they will quickly clog the HEPA filter.
Yea! I know I tried vacuuming my backyard yesterday with mine and that dadgum thang clogged up tighter than a tick!
@@jordanyale7110 damn son, gotta try this with my brand new unit. Can’t believe it doesn’t work in my child run coal and drywall factory, guess I’ll just clean my house with it
It's not a shop vac
Everyone says they paid 3300? I just bought one and with all the accessories it came out to 5400 with tax? I’m gonna return it I feel like I got scammed now! Good system tho!
If you bought the attachments such as the carpet shampooer etc. then yes you will have spent over 3,000. The standard model does not include those extras.
People need to get them online. Great Vacs rebuilds them and sells them cheap.
Air bypasses the water and the dirt falls into the water because of gravity. The water pan is built specifically to deliver the illusion of water filtration. But between the intake shield, water level and paraboloid shape water takes when in a circular motion (spreads outwards and upwards, lowering in the center and raising up the sides) allows even more air to bypass contact with water. Just the fact that an exhaust high efficiency particulate air filter is used should be obvious that there's no true water filtration. If there was true water filtration happening there would be no other type of filter needed, expect maybe activated carbon to remove smell... But the chance of bacteria and mold growing in the water pan after use if it's not completely dried is a guarantee. Much more then that of a "normal" waterless-vacuum. True water filtration would only happen if there was a hose going from the intake port of the water pan down to the bottom of the pan, being completely submerged under water. Followed up a lot of bubbles as air is forced in through the submerged hose. Think about it people... if you're worried about dust when dumping a bag less canister, invest in a bagged vacuum. Not this gimmick
Over 2k for this thing. They just sold my wife in this yesterday. So pissed off. A damn vacuum! That's the vacation she wanted right there.
Kierre Hodges sooo true, lucky mine did not cave in. I told her you can buy a nice “work car” with that much.
in time, if its used a good bit, it will pay for itself(no buying bags)....especially...if you use all its capabilities, its remarkable.Also, it'll outperform regular vacuums. (performs= getting contaminants out of your 'stuff') Expensive? very. ugh. thanks to direct marketing.
how does it work a year later
@@zelinski77
Had mine since 87 and it keeps going strong. You gotta maintain them like a car but do you have your 87 piece of shit car today?
No, but I have a 75 grandville convertible
See, in the first minutes there are a few problems with this guy, Tonnes of high-quality vacuums are HEPA certified, and they cost significantly less than a rainbow. Additionally, it won't regulate the humidity like this guy says, it can only add to the humidity. As an air purifier, "water washing" really does nothing more than potentially trapping smells, but even then, a simple charcoal filter will easily take care of it on an air purifier that costs orders of magnitude less. Not knocking rainbow, the whole concept is pretty neat, but there is really nothing special about these things other than their exorbitant price tag.
I am the guy in the video. Hepa filter vacuums plug up very quickly because the holes are so small. Water traps 99.6% of the dirt then the HEPA traps the tiny particles that the water misses. Yes, it does regulate the humidity either way because air going through water regulates humidity naturally. This was explained to me in depth by a university physics professor.
Yes water works extreemly well as an air purifier which is why all of the high end paint shops use water bath filters to purify their air.
I would like to see a report/paper/article from said professor, because as far as my research has extended, to remove water from air, one needs to drop the ambient temperature below dew point. That is the only way to do it. Water isn't "sentient", it cannot regulate it's own humidity, it will continue to evaporate until the air has reached 100% humidity.
The reason why paint shops use such water bath air filters is because its right for the application. Paint is "sticky" and if you were to run it through a cyclonic system, it would adhere to the sides of the cyclone and fill the system with paint residue. If you go into any wood shop, they will use a cyclonic system, as a water bath system would fill with wood pulp rendering it useless.
Considering the price of a rainbow (over $3,000 new, with all attachments and accessories), one could buy a lifetime supply of HEPA media filters for a standard air purifier, a high-end vacuum, humidifier, hard floor cleaner and a carpet shampooer, with money to spare! _It just doesn't make sense_
thedementation666 See- Someone understands a “sponsored” ad when they are it. This guy takes us all for idiots and think there isn’t anyone smarter than a salesman.
@@brettbret8836 You are just lying. Maybe you don't know it, but those vacuums have bags that catch 99.8% of the dirt. That is the reason why I need to wash a HEPA filter in my Karcher vacuum only once per two years. Only once per two years I do something with water. With the Rainbow you have to do this ugly work with water every cleaning and you have to let it dry all parts separated, otherwise the Rainbow smells like hell.
not if you use it as a purifier right after you dump the dirty water
You know they have HEPA filters too, right?
*unbiased review* IM JUST GOING TO TURN ON THIS LOUD ASS VACUUM WITH A RUG ON MY DECK!
my mom and dad had one in the 80s
They still have it.
It is good, but I would by karcher which works great with a bag and cost 15-20 times less.
Have you seen a demo on the rainbow, bag fillers put dirty air back in your house, the rainbow washes the air and put clean Air back. So look it up they been around, they first came out in 1936 so they must be something to keep them going
@@edwardschot9805 not true, bag fillers do not necessarily put dirty air back in the house - some of them use HEPA filters (just like Rainbow does, in addition to the water filter) to stop the dirt.
This man hasn't seen a filter queen 😂they don't loose suction and don't produce mold like a rainbow
Rainbow produces mold? Only if you are a lazy ass and don't dump the water afterwards and store it as you should.
Suction does nothing, its airflow you need. Vacuums have terrible airflow
Rui Santinha... Rainbow uses water and a HEPA filter... The HEPA is for bacteria, germs, viruses, tobacco smoke and pollen. Those particles don't get wet so they pass the water. I changed the filter on my Rainbow 5 years after buying it... there was only a very fine dust on the engine (My dad smokes)The truth is those who have Rainbow sometimes don't fill it with water up to the right level and that causes those machines to get very dirty on their engines.
I'm gonna get one of them
i love my rainbow
he never explains where the dirt goes though? It doesnt just disappear. Where does it go?
+MrSoulTagg in the water under
Yeah, not only does it pick up the dirt that other vacuum cleaners leave behind but when it does, you can literally see the dirt in the water! It's gross but it's CRAZY! Then, once you're finished, you just dump the water down the toilet or, if you have a lot of carpet debris then you can put a strainer over the toilet and then pour the water into the strainer and down the toilet and then take the contents of the strainer into the garbage. All gone...no buying bags, no vacuum smell or anything! The whole area (if not the house) smells and feels cleaner! Also, it has a floor attachment so you don't need to use a broom when you're doing the floors, an attachment for upholstery (couches, chairs, the car), a wand for the corners and an attachment for dusting (so you don't need to walk around with a duster). I had mine for 18 years and then someone stole it and I got another one. It's expensive but it's worth it because it's just that good!
The water does get crazy gross, my parents still have theirs that they got when they had me 26 yrs ago, now I've got my own. I used to hate dumping that water, now I'd rather do that than leave all that stuff inside my home.
great if you don't have carpet. A cannister vacuum is a cannister vacuum - ok for hard floors. No high cfm vertical air flow means no lifting sand and grit. Then you hire a "steam cleaner" and make mud. Or worse yet use the Rainbow carpet "shampooer". Some of the filthiest carpets I have ever come across are in homes where they're using a Rainbow.
Can't imagine why U got 52 thumbs down except that those 52 do not own a Rainbow! Good Presentation :)
My family has one and I'm not the biggest fan. Ability and cleaning is great. But it's bulky and hard to move around. The model we have has a long cord but the vacuum hose is pretty short making you have to move the machine a lot despite the long cord. Also the cord gets in the way of the wheels and vacuum at times. I wish they had a longer hose initially and cut the cord length down a bit.
It may take slightly longer to clean with this, given its bulky size, but I guarantee you are saving energy in the long run. I would much rather take twice as long to clean something, knowing it will be cleaned right. We watched a demonstration at my sister in law's house last night (she vacuumed before we got there). She has a brand new hoover that she paid $200 for. The Rainbow salesman, said, "Okay, I want you to vacuum over this same spot 50 times with your Hoover". She did it. Then he said, "Okay, now, vacuum over the same spot ONCE with the Rainbow". You wouldn't believe how much dirt it picked up. The Hoover is much lighter and more maneuverable, but you tell me, which one worked better?
I'm not arguing the cleaning, it's just the maneuverability of the the main unit. If they had a longer hose the unit would not be needed to be moved so often.
i have a 1997 e series with a damaged impeller on the motor shaft.......how u get to that thing to replace it?
Best to contact them directly with this one Jeff!
And where am I supposed to dump a huge bowl of filthy water filled with pet hair? The toilet?
Not unless YOU want come over and unclog the enormous amount of pet hair that get stuck in the traps.
Outside you say? Yeah... I'll just bring a huge bowl filled to the brim with filthy water onto a 14 story apartment elevator and not spill a drop. My property management and neighbors will love me for that.
I dump it into the trash can ;) and take it out. It’s like 1/4 gal of water. Usually it’s about solid after a good full house clean.
Rainbow: Bad corporation with bad buisness practices but with awesome product.
This seems to be the case with all of the highest end vacuums (Rainbow, Filter Queen, Kirby, Electrolux/Aerus to name a few). Great machines, but it's hard to get past the sleezy sales pitches.
Something romantic about a traveling sales man. Reminds me of my grandma telling me about how Sears and dept. stores used to have people to aid you buying and looking for what you need

Dude,
Go online and get a used one for cheap. The late 80s D4 model is probably the best they ever made. That rainbow salesman up there knows that to be true. I have one but want a chrome D2.
Why you're not saying that it has hepa filter behind the water. Do a proper test without hepa filter. I wonder what amount stays in the water and what is the price of hepa filter?
the HEPA filter comes built into the vacuum!
I have a rainbow vacuum and the hepa filter is use more as a secondary air filter if you look closely right behind the gray latch which hold the water basin in place to the left are grills and that is where the air that goes that passes throw the hepa filter go. So even if he ran the vacuum with out the hepa filter all you would see on the cloth is just dust on is because what ever get sucked into the water gets trapped inside the water basin. But to get a replacement filter for model I have on amazon is $30.85 and I only change it once a year. So the rainbow acts like a dry and wet air filter.
Ben Greenfield Fitness What you wanted to say saying built-into? Sits inside and can not be replaced?
The hepa filter is not built-in I own an e2 and all I have to do to take out the filter is on the bottom there are clips that you need to push them in then the filter pops out. Why would they make the filter not removable a new rainbow cost $2500 and I don't think they would designed the vacuum that since your saying that the filter can't be removed once the filter is full you throw out your $2500 vacuum and go buy another one if you had that kind of money to burn lucky you but I would rather buy a $30 replacement filter then buy a new vacuum when the filter gets full.
Guess what happens when this builtin filter get clogged? Moreover moisture & dust together will make it clogged faster and more efficiently, so just simple vacuuming with another vacuum most likely won't work. You will need a replacement.
I just bought a Rainbow and the salesman said I couldn't use essential oils. Do you have a link or any literature from Rainbow saying otherwise?
+Danielle Hudson Not true, every time i clean i use essential oils and I've been doing that for 20 years. No problems what-so-ever. Just add a little bit in the water.
You can put a bit of the perfume of your choice in it. Essential oils are fine but you don't need much.
So exactly what is the price on this Rainbow Vacuum? Anyone please? Thx in advance.
+Carlos Ramirez about $2000
+Danielle Hudson thx, i saw one on Amazon but for about $ 1899.99. prime member price. I'm just trying to figure the best price for the item. I try to read reviews and comments from others to see if it is worth it. thank you for your time.
Craigslist always has good deals.
I'll put this here
www.greatvacs.com/pages/rainbow-vacuum-models
Water washed and Hepa washed air! Yes there is a big HEPA filter on the back of the vacuum that cleans the air. You must change it once a year or when the machine losses power. They will tell you that when you will purchase it. Water does not clean the air 100% not even 80% if you ask me, that is why there is a hepa filter. Search for: rainbow vacuum repair. You will see that the motor gets dirty. Water does not catch everything so dont be foled by the water filtration shit. This vacuum cleaner is good but its all in the brush that it uses, the machine is nothing special, 200$ vacuum cleaners that use water are the same. The brush is the boss in rainbow.
I don't feel like this guy really knows what he's talking about.
He is following the scripted demo to closely. Owning one and demoing one is different. If you own one and demo one you can be a genius.
and he has vacuumed since 2015 only because it is fun
Who wears short shorts?
I think they are ball shorts hehe
I was told I couldn’t use my essential oils I’m my rainmate Air purifier, is this so, or can I . I was told it would eat the plastic.
Yes you can use your essential oils. Will not hurt it. I sale rainbows and I use oils, but you do want to clean it good with or without. Don't put in your dishwasher. I hope you enjoy your rainbow I use my rainbow all most every day
It's just crap and you need to think a bit to figure it out. If it would be so good these machines would never require to clean up the dust in the output because would be clean! All rubbish! By the way if this technology is so great want you believe that all high tech companies would not go for the same and research on it launching their own products?
Rui Santinha they are theres copies now you would know that if your mind was open to resurching first
Its called a patent buddy, look it up
The Hyla copied them. I personally own a rainbow and there is no dust in the output
@@juliebell7972
I used to demo and sell them No dust output at all.
These vacuums do work as well as they claim. The reason why all high tech companies dont launch their own version is this: The Rainbow's water/dirt collection tank has to be filled before and cleaned out after each time you use the vacuum no matter how brief you want to use it. And the tank gets disgusting each time you use it too. Its really a high maintenance vacuum in that regard, and most people dont want to deal with all that every time they use their vacuum.
rainbow says that dry filter vacs are horrible , what about the dyson cinetic
Dyson sucks your money out of your wallet! Get a Rainbow or Electolux! Rainbows are great for party bongs! lol I had one and used essential oils and never had any issues with it, it's really a good vacuum cleaner!
I traded my dyson in on a rainbow. The dyson didn’t do my dogs and wife’s mess justice. Plus the new model is a full time quiet air filter. Reduces a lot of my dog hair floating around problem
Meanwhile I'm just sitting over here with my crappy HEPA certified dyson vacuum. Gosh darn it I knew I should've paid $2000+ for this water filter..
I have a dyson ball, great vacuum. May even have more power technically. I grew up with a rainbow. Even with the dyson attachment kit, it still didn’t compare to a rainbows versatility of what it can do, ease of cleaning and life time. Big thing people never do is change the “certified hepa filter” google it, dyson recommends every 6 months or yearly!! Rainbows water filter does such a great job that their hepa filter is changed every 10 years! Haven’t seen a 10 year dyson yet..
If the air is so clean as you say why does the rainbow has a hepa filter in the Output.? Why do you see maintenance cleaning all the dust powder inside the engine bay in you tube videos? Where is the air passing through the water?
To ensure we catch all dust particles.
You want pushy salesmen in your home besides the mormons? Go for it.
whoa buddy, CERTIFIED AIR PURIFIER?? I guess you slap your own label and call it certified then i guess so. lol....
Yeah I used to own one of these and I exchanged it for a water Matic filter magic vacuum cleaner and I like it a lot better cuz all you're getting with this vacuum is mud
Well personally I don’t believe in nun of that black magic witch craft. But best I can recolect anytime you apply water to dirt your end product is not dissimilar to mud
This is great, but anything cheaper? They sell for $$$$. Thanks.
+Ron Krit there are other options. It takes a while to explain and it depends on your situation. Call me when you get a minute and I can explain the options. Brett 208.449.3979
+Ron Krit Similar machines are the Canadian Sirena, Thermax AF2 and others,as well as wet/dry central vacuum systems from Drainvac out of the Province of Quebec and the Canadian invented Aqua-Air out of Utah. Aqua-Air also has a portable machine but I know little about it. I think it's developed more for wet pickup, mostly.
+WJCTechyman If you are going to invest the money it is wise to spend a little more and get the one that you know will be around for parts, service, and upgradeablitiy over the years. Most companies that make these water vacuums are only around for 5 or 10 years. Rexair the maker of the Rainbow has been around for 70 years and they are sold all over the world. Being such a large company they are able to invest the most in research and development. As a result they have consistently had , by far, the best product. In addition they are able to stand behind their warranty because they have service centers everywhere and will probably be in business for many years to come.
+Ron Krit - They sell for money? Wow, that's crazy!
+Luke Wilmer Rainbows have to be stored off of the basin when they are done using them. Otherwise they rust inside. Many people store it on the basin. That is a huge risk of getting a used one. Our service person can't tell if it is rusted or corroded until he takes it apart.
I shouldve bought this instead of the Kirby but I didnt know about the 🌈
Put a Rainbow and a Kirby hose to hose, turn them on and watch the Rainbow suck the Kirby bag flat.
Go talk to any vacuum repair man, they hate these things.
+ShantyGaming - Means nothing.
+Jon Hohensee Yeah it does. Look them up online and you will be horrified at what you discover lol
+ShantyGaming If anything, they hate them because they can't make money on something they don't have to fix.
+John Riggs Good old antidotal evidence. But the fact remains, if you actually compare it to other vacuums in the same price range, it's demolished. There's a reason why you don't see other vacuum cleaner brands going this same route. It's because it's very heavy, needlessly complicated and does a worse job than standard types of vacuum. And when it does break down, it's a fortune to replace. I'm sorry you bought a crappy vacuum and want to defend its honour. But please read around on sites not sponsored by Rainbow. For the same price you could by the top of the line Royal Vacuum that would destroy a Rainbow. Even in Rainbows supposedly amazing filtration, a Miele canister vacuum will do better for cheaper.
When the vacuum repair man shows me an entire back closet of broken Rainbows, that's the reason he said not to buy them. I went looking for what vacuum to buy, read 3rd party sources that showed they're garbage for the money, even vacuum salesman said to stay away,
+ShantyGaming And let's be honest here, there's nothing I could say right now that would change your mind. Your Rainbow salesman has got you hook line and sinker. Please I beg you, next time you have to buy a vacuum cleaner, spend a month researching what to buy. Hopefully if that's the case you will at least be able to go and down stair much easier. There's tons of info out there showing exactly what I'm saying. It's not like I have some vendetta against Rainbow. I just want to help people not get ripped off just like the people who by Dyson vacuums.
