Rainbow Vacuum

Had Rainbow for many years. Yes price is high. When I was doing a home remodeling project. I was using my home vac. A friend lend me a Rainbow. It vacuum out what my vacuum cleaner did not out of the carpet and it was the old plaster that I had to use a cement blade. Sold on Rainbow.

I wish the tank on my Rainbow was bigger. I wish that the attachments were available for purchase and not expensive. The shampoo attachments would be great to have as well. But I love my vacuum other than those issues right there.

It uses water as a filter so dust, dirt, germs and bacteria are drowned in the water rather than being blown back into the air by dry filter vacuums. It never loses cleaning ability due to clogged filter. Your home smells fresh and clean every time.

Well bought this yesterday after an excessively lengthy demo. Got up early after running the air cleaner all night and the house smelled fresh, the water had hair and white sediment, which I can only guess to be dust and dander. We have 4 animals, 3 adults and a child in our home, and live in the windy desert, with a pet door. Life is dirty and dusty in our home. Our carpet is less than two years old, and of reasonable good quality but looked dirty and not soft at all. My husband and I were discussing wood floors.

I had a salesperson come to my house speaking of how amazing this product was. In reality, the Rainbow is the biggest waste of money. The salesperson was unbelievably pushy until I said yes. He then ran my credit and told me that I would not have to worry about the payment at all. I now owe over $4,000 for the product! Within 2 weeks I told him I did not like the air purifier/vacuum and I wanted to return it (I used it once still to this day). He told me I was unable to return the item. On top of that, he took my old vacuum. I was infuriated. It smells absolutely terrible, though we have washed it out so many times, and the job it does is unnoticed. I without a doubt would NEVER encourage anyone to buy this product.

I bought a Rainbow vacuum cleaner and all of the attachments and fragrances in the summer of 96. I absolutely loved the smell of a clean house and the red apple fragrance after using the 'air wash' feature. It was a pain to put together... You couldn't just switch it on and nip round the living room with it but the results were better than anything else I had ever owned or tried. Your house FELT clean. I paid just under 1000 GBP for it. The only problem I had was in the UK some years later the distributor disappeared and I was unable to get it serviced or get parts for it such as belts or fragrances. I retired it in 2010 and bought a Kirby, then a Dyson and currently a Shark Lift-Away. The Shark is great, the others less so but none of them are a patch on the Rainbow. I would buy another in an instant if I could get support and back up here in the UK.

Had someone come to do a demo. I liked the free air purifier. She gave the demo and the person on her ride along was pushy and made remarks to make my husband and dans I feel guilty for not wanting to buy one. My husband is a disabled vet who was in a serious motorcycle accident 3 months prior and was just returning back to work so we explained we were hesitant. They did a good demo and told me I could order and do ride alongs to get it free. So we talked later and since we have allergies and my husband has sleep apnea, PTSD nightmares we decided to try it. I am. Not at all happy with it. It doesn't seem the purifier is working and I cannot carry the vacuum up and down steps with a shoulder injury.

Not worth $3000. Like someone else on this site, I normally don’t fall for a con! Must have been having a senior moment that day! When the sales woman demonstrated the machine she left it sitting on the empty box the entire time and it was really quiet. Once she left and I moved it to the family room it was so noisy, loud whining noise, I recorded it and when she stopped by my part time job, I played it for her and she acted surprised that it was so loud. She said she’d check their warehouse and see if they had another one.

I have been having a horrible time trying to get someone to contact me about what is going on with my account. No one want's to help that is in charge. They do not reply to emails or callbacks. I am beginning to think it is all a scam. I have done my part in "selling" 3 Rainbows. I have called every number I have been given and found. I am so disappointed in the way the service is. WHAT CAN I DO???? Who can I call?

I did a demo for a free RainMate and was never told it was for a vacuum. When the people who were an acquaintance of mine from a previous job arrived I was told we were waiting for someone else that would be doing the demo. Which I was never told anyone else would be coming with them. Once the demonstrator showed up things went downhill. The conversation was very inappropriate especially in front of children. Luckily they weren't mine. So the inappropriate conversation continued the whole demo not just by my acquaintance and her husband but by the demonstrator as well. We are all adults so my husband and I didn't say anything and did joke as well at times but we both felt as though the man doing the demonstration and representing the Rainbow Company should have put a stop to the conversation and it wasn't just the conversation but inappropriate actions as well.
