  • Mornings have always been the worst because my lungs try to clean out everything I've breathed in overnight. After just a few days, I can wake up and not spend 15 min coughing!
    I can't stop cleaning! My allergies are improving daily. I'm not coughing as much.
    This thing is amazing! You have to check this out.

    I’m 28 and just purchased my own Rainbow. My parents have had one for 25 years and it’s still working. No matter what nothing I had could clean as well as that thing did or make the air feel so clean. I’m not even someone who likes to purchase things for my home, but this is the BEST vacuum. The fresh air solution cleans the air and gives your home the most amazing scent. I’ve never been excited to own anything for my house like this until now 😂

    As a Rainbow distributor, I am very happy to see you own a Rainbow, especially this current model!! I felt so bad for your allergies! You will find the Rainbow to be the best clean air filtration unit out there, with the power of water! I wanted to run a couple things toward your way, because you didn't mention it in the video, so I wasn't sure if you knew about it. I recommend the Rainbow Fragrances that you can pick up at our local Rainbow distributor location. There are 14 different fragrances! I recommend the Eucalyptus for your allergies. Letting that run all night on the lowest speed will definitely help. And lastly, always clean the Separator, which is located underneath the top portion of the unit, with the toothbrush that is stored underneath there as well. I recommend cleaning that under warm water at least twice a month. Did a professional distributor demonstrate the Rainbow to you in your home, or did you just purchase one there? Sorry about the questions, I just wanted to help with some of the odds and ends. :) And yes, don't keep that Kirby around! ha ha Take care!

    Any "bag" vacuum will work almost dustless if you vacuum very slowly because the brush throws up the dust and if you have moved too quickly the vacuum had no time to pick up the raised dust.

    Something is very wrong with your Kirby because the bag never inflated when you turned it on. Also, if you adjust it correctly for the carpet height, you can hear the brush beating the carpet. Dust in the house is perpetual. We live in constant filth and no air exchanger or vacuum will solve the problem, but the Rainbow is a beautiful machine.

  • @bruniogregorio8241

    I have picked up dirt before with my Kirby after my rainbow and vice versa. However, the dirt that actually affects my health is what’s in the air: I have switched to a Miele canister because of how well it filters ( I couldn’t stomach the $3.9k for the SRX, but plan on investing in one in the future). The Miele doesn’t remove all of the dirt like the Kirby (dirt beneath carpet), but I haven’t had to buy allergy pills since using it. I deep clean the carpet with the Kirby once a month, each time with a new bag) and the Miele the rest of the time. I use my old Rainbow as an air cleaner frequently.

Also, the plastic at the top of the main hose had cracked and will need replaced. It also gets pretty hott. I wouldn't be so critical normally, but this vaccum is over $3000 so it should be the absolute TOP quality.

If not, I'm pretty sure there is a number in the user manual if you have that. Call them up and they'll get you in touch with the right team to get your unit all fixed up again for you.

The only thing I have to do is change the bag every month or 2 and buy a filter every year but again so worth it. 😊

    saw this today on a fb ad and cant remember the last the time i saw this, maybe 20 yrs ago. anyways, now im older im certain how this technically works. the water basically reduces the frequency to replace HEPA water however the water can get clogged too as very fine dust can fly or float on water (no wonder why the container is shallow, wide) . the product design is so old that is both expensive and less efficient compared to cordless or Dyson vacuums today which can do better in all areas.
    this product could easily be replicated with a wet and dry vacuum with some water in it.
    the company could easily contract a redesign of this in china. the water idea seems more suitable as an air purifier, reducing the the frequency to replace a HEPA filter.

    the rainbow does not only use water to clean the air, in the back of the unit there is a MASSIVE HEPA filter. This is what does the allergen filtration, water is not a good filtration media that’s why rexair added the HEPA and that’s what makes it a certified air cleaner, it’s not the water. Older rainbows were really dirty machines after the water, inside them they’re filthy that’s why the filter was necessary. I’ve serviced vacuums for years.

  • @bruniogregorio8241

    I wish they had a sensor to tell you when the water is to dirty (muddy) and when the water is to low. They could also use UV bulbs in the basin to disinfect the particles/air that comes into the unit. But, if it had those features it would be even more expensive.

    • @fivepackfunhouse1423
      @fivepackfunhouse1423  Před 3 lety +3

      Connor, the new models do! If you're cleaning and the water is too dirty, it will turn off and a red light will come on. Plus if it runs dry for too long it will turn itself off.
      The unit is a wet/dry vacuum so it can run dry for a bit. If you're washing floors, for example, or cleaning up a spill, you'd start with an empty tank so that you could fill it up with the dirty/used water.

    Well, there is one traditional filter in that machine, a HEPA in the rear but if you do the stated maintenance like changing the water every 20 to 30 minutes while vacuuming, keeping the separator clean and storing it properly, that HEPA unit shouldn't need much attention for years. On the plus side, it's bigger than the HEPA in the previous model.

I would see dust the day after cleaning my house with the Kirby. It takes 2 weeks when using the Miele. I think the Rainbow would clean carpet better than the Miele.

      Hi Connor. We are working toward getting our Rainbow for free. Anyone can! It's pretty easy too. We financed the machine with 12 months no interest and we'll have it reimbursed in less than 6 months. Plus, if you buy during a demo, the cost is less.
      All we have to do is tag along on 12 demos of the Rainbow (with 2 sales). We reach out to friends, family, coworkers, etc and schedule demos with them and our Rep. In return for our time and testimonial, Rainbow reimburses us. If you do 6 demos and at least one sale, they'll pay half. We've had it for less than 30 days and already have 7 demos in the books. The Rainbow sells itself so its not even a high-pressure demo. And with a program like the one they have, it's practically a no brainer. I haven't even mentioned the rest of the free accessories you get as you go!
      It's a really generous program plus anyone that you demo for also gets a Rainmate as a free gift just for their time. We have fun with the demos too.
      If you would like a demo, I'd be happy to help set one up. ;) The free gift, of course, is yours to keep. Use the link in the description of the video to get the free gift!

    Kirbys will always out clean a rainbow. But a rainbow will filter better. But not better than a Miele. Also Rainbow does have a HEPA filter on the unit behind a cover. They around 70 to 100 bucks to replace every year. Because they are hidden most customers don’t know they exist and then they over use the filter causing the motors to over heat and burn out. All of which isn’t covered under warranty. But a fine machine nonetheless given proper care:) the comparison is also not a fair or accurate one. The Kirby was being run on low speed on a thick carpet and the rainbow on high speed. Of course the rainbow will then pick up more.

      Garret, thanks for the comment. You are correct that the Rainbow has a HEPA filter. It's required by law for vacuums to have one if they're certified for allergies (and maybe even ALL vacuums must have one. I don't recall.) However, my friend, like you said, forgot it was back there in her 7-year old Rainbow. So she checked the filter and it was white. It still looked brand new after 7 years! I've not heard of anyone burning out the motor on a Rainbow. I've only heard of people still using 20- 30- or even 40-year old models.
      Rainbows don't need any other filter beyond water. The molecular structure of water acts as a magnet trapping everything. No dust to breathe in as you clean.
      Also, our Kirby was on full power. I only use low power if vacuuming area rugs. There was no "trick" or intention of tricking the viewer for the desired results. There's no need! Lol! The Rainbow out cleans our Kirby.

      ​@@fivepackfunhouse1423 No vacuum removes all of the dirt from carpeting. Anyone who tells you differently is lying. You could vacuum with Kirby after Rainbow it would continue picking up dirt. I'm not a Kirby fan, but in the filter it looks like the bag was not fully inflated, and it looks like you were going too fast. It is not true to say that the Kirby had picked up all that it would, and you have no idea if the Rainbow would have picked up what the Kirby did. The Kirby would likely have continued picking up dirt with every pass. Certainly, you did not prove that the Rainbow was superior to the Kirby for dirt removal. You would need to follow a more rigorous protocol to do so, with each vacuum having the same opportunity to perform. You merely repeated a salesperson's trick. If you vacuumed with any quality vacuum, you would also continue to pick up dirt. Water is a pretty good filter medium, but the Rainbow would fail to meet HEPA filtration without the HEPA filter. The Rainbow SRX has had a recall, so be sure to check yours as some have caught fire (call your distributor for a free fix). My biggest complaint with the Rainbow ,besides the obvious objection to the ridiculous pricing, is in the design of the power nozzle. Why place the belt in the middle? This creates a big dead space in the middle of the power nozzle. Why don't they use a permanent belt (Miele, Sebo, Aerus, Lindhaus use geared belts that should never need to be replaced). I don't care about the lack of an automatic cord rewinder. The Rainmate is technically not an air cleaner. It is a humidifier/aromatherapy unit. The Kirby has far superior air flow compared to the Rainbow, but the Rainbow has superior water lift. The Kirby and Rainbow excel on different types of dirt. When I had a Rainbow demo, I was not impressed. I opened up the power nozzle and found that there was carpet fibers from one of the previous demonstrations. I suspect this is due to turbulence in the power nozzle. I can't understand why Rainbow can't make a more efficient power nozzle. Why can't they sell them at a more reasonable price?
      Unless you have money to burn, there's no need to buy a brand new Rainbow. Refurbished models from vac stores (with warranties) can be had for less than half the price of a new Rainbow. Many premium canisters have better air flow at the nozzle of a Rainbow for far less money, and the European brands meet tough emission standards. Miele in particular is certified HEPA as a unit. The Schoettler Patriot vacuum is another vacuum with phenomenal air filtration that has much better air flow than Rainbow and is made in California, and they have far superior power nozzles. The price of a Rainbow is absolutely ridiculous at over $3000. You could likely have a premium central vacuum installed for less money.
      There are air cleaners that move a lot more air than a Rainbow and are much more quiet.

    Also, the dust that is coming from the Kirby isn’t coming out of the bag. It has a motor exhaust that blows dust out right by the height adjustment. That air isn’t filtered at all. I didn’t think it would make a big difference because most of the air goes through the bag, but after using the Miele I can tell you it does. No allergy pills since the Miele, I don’t see a build up of dust on the furniture anymore, and it’s so much easier to vacuum furniture with than the Kirby.

If the restaurant uses a central vacuum (some do), they can vacuum with almost no noise - even with customers around.

Most restaurants use bagged vacuums, and they vacuum during slow times and/or before opening or after closing.

      Well, when you're first cleaning a home with a Rainbow, it could take a few repeats of one room to get it clean. But each time you clean, the water is less and less dirty so you know it's truly getting the dirt out. And, while it's cleaning the floor, it's also still cleaning the air. The Rainbow SRX is so much more than just a vacuum.

Vacuum with a rainbow then change the bag out of a Kerby and Vacuum that spot after the rainbow and you will see next to nothing. On top of that the rainbow does not put dust in the air when you turn it on.

Why wouldn't you remove the carpet and replace it with hardwood or even the new Laminate Hardwood Floor which gives the look of hardwood while giving you less allergies issues and less wood issues.
    Another issue is that there could be a lot of dust trapped under the carpet in the liner.

      Rainbow systems can't be bought online or from a store. Only trained salespeople are authorized to show and sell them. I'm not sure where you got it. However, on the newer models, there is a serial number directly under where the cord comes out. There is ALWAYS a serial number somewhere on the unit, usually right there by where the power cord comes out. Start with that. Then feel free to call Rexair's support line to see if they can validate the unit you have. rainbowsystem.com/support/. Good luck! I hope that helps!
