Rexair LLC - Rainbow SRX Cleaning System

>We have 2 dogs that shed A LOT: > I hear the D4 has a 6L bag but I feel as though itll get full pretty quick. 6L is a ***gallon and a half***.... 1.5 milk jugs full of hair (and concentrated dog fragrance). not sure you can find a bigger bag unless you go commercial. i have 3 dogs. >What about the smell? smell is at full power when the bag gets about quarter full... a fresh bag doesn't stay that way for long.. these use water to filter.. but $$. ($) [https://rainbowsystem.com/](https://rainbowsystem.com/) The Rainbow uses Mother Nature’s most powerful element, water, to trap dirt and odors, returning only naturally clean, water-washed air to your home environment.

Rainbow is a good but bulky (and pricey) vacuum. It has a carpet shampooer and a smaller vacuum head attachment (for chairs n smaller things) you can purchase. Also doubles as an air purifier.

I sold Rainbowss. The issue it puts water vapor in the air, dirty water vapor. I now have 4 vacuums (roadside pickups. Three are BISSEL and they all work great. Jst keep them clean, like wash everything periodically. AND buy spare paartss, like filters etc. can't stress this enough. To buy, try Marketplace.

Once upon a time I had a Rainbow! It was AMAZING! However, at $1.1k only if I would only buy one again with an FSA/HSA card and pay in 24 months at 0% APR in a sales tax free state.

# Kirby, Oreck, or Rainbow. If those are out of your price range then this: [https://www.walmart.com/ip/BISSELL-Power-Force-Bagged-Upright-Vacuum-1739/104757366](https://www.walmart.com/ip/BISSELL-Power-Force-Bagged-Upright-Vacuum-1739/104757366) I agree with Mr. Oreck in that "bagless" is a dirty word. Bagless vacuums are nasty to clean out. Rainbow being the exception because of the water being the filter.

Rainbow! Based on your comment, you cannot go wrong with a Rainbow. It uses water as your filter but it 100% removes the dirt. It’s easy to use!  I will say, it’s an investment, so well above your $500 - however it comes with a 10 year 100% warranty coverage and an additional 10 year labor repair coverage. It’ll be the last vacuum you buy - but it will remove the dirt from your home instead of pushing, blowing and spreading the dirt around. It is an air purifier as well 24/7 with numerous attachments for everything in your home. You won’t be disappointed with a Rainbow if you actually want to remove the dirt from your home.

Kenmore canisters for carpet are very good. For hard floors, they’re awful. Obsolete. Deal breakers. Etc. Why not buy a refurbished Miele or Sebo, or if you have wall to wall carpet in most of your home and rarely use attachments, definitely go for a Kirby, or a Rainbow if you have a mix. Goodvac dot com for Kirby parts, Rainvac dot com for Rainbow parts. Miele parts and Sebo parts are easily accessible. Hyla parts are not, in contrast, but they too last a long time. I think they’re easier to use than the Rainbow but they don’t clean carpet very well at all. Kirby is about the best you can get for carpet.

My family has always had Rexair Rainbow vacuums. Mine is older than I am (when my mom upgraded 15 years ago, she gave me hers from college). Honestly it's a shame that it's so far down on this list, they're AMAZING vacuums. Mine is over 35 years old and runs like a champ. I recommend it to everyone. They're hard to get used to, but because it's a tanked water system (it's NOT a wet vac), you don't recirculate dust when you dump the pan. You can add scents and there's a ton of attachments for your every possible need. It's amazing!

Im aware this spunds like a shameless product plug..the rainbow vac is pretty awesome. My mom bought one years ago and I manufactured excuses to borrow it. If any vacuum experts could point me to a comprable machine with a fraction of the price im all ears.

Rainbow! I've had mine for 28 years. I've never had any problems, ever! Well worth the money

Yes! I wear gloves, pour the water through a strainer into the toilet, and then empty the strainer into the garbage, then wipe out the canister. It's a process, but im used to it now.

Yuh, they are expensive, but if you're buying a new vacuum (that blows stuff back in the room that you just cleaned) every 4-5 years, it just might be worth the investment. You have to weigh it out. Just make sure you know that you have to dump the water right after every use. There's nothing like this vacuum, in my opinion. I should get paid for this advertisement 😂. One time, a neighbor wanted to borrow my rainbow because she was have people over for dinner! I said no, just buy your own 😆
