That Rainbow got Baptized before it went to the Pastor!! 😂
That's funny
That is the best and strongest vacuum I have ever used. I have a miele as well and it's a good backup, but when it comes to suction there is no comparison,, Mine is over 15 years old and as strong as the day I bought it. also, the dust is absorbed in the water and no dust blows anywhere
That's interesting to hear you say this Milele has about 40% more power when tested at the end of the hose. Not all of them were made to do carpet so depending on the model you might have a hard floor area rug machine. That style mission does not clean well on carpet.
Filtration is also much better on a lot of other vacuums. Turns out water is a poor filtration medium in this rainbow machine relies heavily on its exhaust filter.
Wow, that Rainbow seems like arriving at a solution using the _absolutely_ most convoluted, complicated way possible.
That cleaning method is sweet and I will do it on my next rainbow. I've noticed messing and cleaning the fan is a pain. This does it more effecient and doesn't hurt the fan.
Dammn, that rainbow logo has That iconic 70’s look
This was the absolute best video I have watched so far!!! Seriously!! Thank you so much.
This isn't a E2 type 12 black, this is the older e2 gold
So interesting to see the inside of one of these. They pop up frequently on Marketplace in my area. I always contemplate on picking one up, but the main problems I’ve come across are people running them without water or failing to clean them out properly. They got the nickname “Mud Pot” for a reason. Nearest vac repair store is 3hrs away so I can’t justify having someone else repairing such a machine lol.
Neat setup with the water basin trap, but a bagged machine like my Sebo Airbelt E3 is what I need/use to keep the allergens down.
Excellent tutorial.🙌🏼
I don’t dare to wash with the pail of water like u did cause I’m a scaredy-cat. But I kept watching till the end and your video is awesome. You surely are patient and know very well what u r doing. Thank you so much for sharing. You truly have helped me. I am going to do that maintenance to my unit which happens to b the same u did, and also am going to replace the on-off switch. Blessings to you and your family!👍🏼👏🏼
I have RAinbow Vac..that needs cleaning..but the company is in Georgia..not one in Tallahassee, Fla...
Пришлось на днях ремонтировать отломившийся/отгоревший наконечник быстросъемной вилки 110/220V в коннекторе турбо щетки. Взял pc molex mother, вставил в нее родной отгоревший штифт- наконечник (с доп проставкой в виде фрагмента 3 мм от медного одножильного кабеля 4мм кв.), село идеально т.к. у molex father как раз такой же внешний d=2.4 mm, сделал насечки на штифте и прихватил припоем, чтобы при вынимании не вытягивался наружу. В пластике коннектора чуть рассверлил побольше отверстие. Кабель от платы припаял (он и в оригинале припаян тупо, правда чем то тугоплавким (или добавки какие или свинца много). Коннектор (ранее разрезанный по шву ножом по периметру в верхней части) заклеил обратно клеем и перемотал изолентой. Вставился в посадочное отверстие только туговато, пришлось деревяшкой аккуратно забить.
Did the crazy cleaning method. I took extreme caution to ensure water stayed where I wanted to go. WOW, The Kirby cake was more like Kirby barf, YUCK. The Rainbow E2 is clean. I found the complete Rainbow package in a thrift store for $35.00.
Wow! You got crazy lucky!
Looks like a new rainbow ,,, good job 👍
How do you take down the rainbow se model?
I just can´t take my vacum down
Are the thick rubber motor/water pan gaskets actually glued to the fan chamber housing? I’m replacing the motor assembly on my e2 black. And the new motor does not have the gasket on it.
Sounds like you need to order a gasket.
@@PerformanceReviews yes I know that. That wasn’t my question was it? I need to know if the gasket just slips onto the fan chamber housing or does it actually get glued on to it?
Depends on which rubber gasket I'd recommend you bring it to a local professional.
@@PerformanceReviews I know how to get apart and back together I use to be a service tech just havent don’t many rainbows . I just remember someone once said they thought the rubber gasket was glued to the motor. It’s the only big rubber gasket that secured to motor to the housing and that the water pan seal up against. But never mind it’s already completed. I found someone who knew exactly the part and was able to instruct me. Why not just be a help to someone to someone instead of playing dumb and saying just take it in for service?
That circuit board is required because it’s a switches reluctance motor.
Well I flushed soapy water threw my d2 and its still going!
Do you know if you can do the water cleaning method pouring water into the SRX rainbow
you should see my moms. im trying to fix it, its disgusting inside and she says the motor seems stuck
The toothbrush was to clean the separator fins.
Are you allowed to review a Simplicity Jill?
I’ve seen them selling online for as little as $145.00 and thought that they’d be great extra machines to have on hand.
Thanks for commenting as always. It's the same machine as the Bissell zing which I might review in 2021.
@@PerformanceReviews Thanks. I didn’t know that they were the same machine. I told my cousin to buy one and she really likes it. I sent her the combination horsehair butterfly dusting brush/upholstery tool and a universal shelf dusting brush and told her to swap them out on the wand clip.
I have a 2 speed rainbow vacuum that will not turn on, I have bypassed the bowl safety switch and the actual 2 speed switch and powered the board with a sui wire. The molex plug only has 13 volts coming out of it and the the two plugs that control the two speeds have no voltage, does this sound like a board problem? Thanks in advance.
If you take the armature out and get it spinning and chalk it then 2 new motor brushes. That that hose would be topped out to 55
What are you talking about? This is a brushless motor.
The fan on mine won’t come off I’m afraid I’m gonna brake it tryito remove it
I love Rainbows as collectible machines they are so quirky!. I wouldn't recommend one for daily use though
I use mine daily and no problem, its like driving an old Classic and I love it.
@@Pervypriest They're heavy and I think it's annoying having to deal with the water.
They are great for daily use if you're not lazy of course :D
@@kakamaika7585 Imagine a vacuum that is ready to go right when you plug it in and doesnt need to be emptied after use.
@@aaaaeeeeffffeeeekkkkssss I know, I know but no other vacuum can get the job done like my e2 black.
But you don't show how you open up to top cover I can't figure out that's the most important thing
If that's a mystery shouldn't be servicing the machine. Bring it to your local repair shop.
@@PerformanceReviews vhy did you take video if you don't like to help people?
I’m so confused on how running water through a vacuum helps clean it out? When you do it with a regular vacuum, it dries out the bearing. Does it do the same with this?
Well you might be confused about how a full bypass motor works. It doesn't even come in contact with the bearings or anything. You might Google pictures of rainbow motors for a better explanation.
@@PerformanceReviews ok. Will do
I do the same to all my vacuums and let them dry and they work like new after......
How do you remove power switch without breaking? My Rainbow won't start. So trying to replace that/
I'd recommend you bring it to your local repair shop.
Can you really do that to a rainbow? Meaning pour water with soap? How about overloading the basin with soapy water and let the vacuum suck it up
Yes , You watched the video right?
Hi, I need to know how changes the power switch
Bring it to your local vacuum repair shop
Rainbows are awesome, but I don’t get why people don’t bother to clean them. I know water filtration vacuums don’t need much maintenance, but it’s still very important to keep them clean.
Clean the separator once a month, never store the motor on the basin no matter how dry, use the right amount of water and having service done every 4-5 years. The result will be 30+ yrs of a clean home.
@@paulgekides6608 yes i do that to my e2 blue. my aunt doesn’t, so I had to tell her to stop putting the water basin on the vacuum when she is done cleaning. But i visit her often so i’m the one that maintains her rainbow vacuum.
I don't get it either. It's not hard for me at all even cleaning the separator after every use... and giving the seals where dirt enters/exits into the bowl a quick wipe... I also think people will often not fill the basin with enough water. I'm always a little overkill on the water, filling it about 1/2 inch above the dome with no issues for years... I really think it's better... but don't go above that.... For me, it's easier dealing with a rainbow than it is trying to maintain a bagless vacuum
I have like five rainbows I also have a central vac can anybody guess what vacuum I prefer to use
You're very brave to use this method of cleaning.. doesn't look safe at all.
🤣
That is NOT proper rainbow usage...
I repaired rainbows for years, but before that I made my living demonstrating them in people’s homes, they were all very polite & nice people. So when you’re making a video of a very important investment they made, don’t go talking like it’s the worst machine made. Cuz you should go sell. It’s obvious you don’t appreciate the rainbow
That's a hard hustle. Why rainbows are well made. They're easily out classed by just about every other canister vacuum on the market.
Some examples.
