Does anyone have a water filtration vacuum? Do they work as well as advertised?

Answer 1

I used to sell Kirby vacuums and Ive done many many comparison tests against Rainbows and never did the Kirby let me down. Rainbows are good for what they are designed for but they don't get all the dirt out of the carpets. We did a thing called a salt test, pour a cup or two of salt in the carpet rub it in till it disappears take the homeowners vac and go over the salt 100 times fast ,slow, left ,right, high setting ,low setting ,then use the Kirby and in every case salt was vacuumed up out of the carpet. left behind from other vacs Rainbow included. Ive taken many in on trade.

Answer 2

I used to have a rainbow vacuum that filtered thru water and I loved it. I haven't replaced it yet but, I am going to with another one.They kept my house from becoming dusty and kept my allergies under control. The only down side to the rainbow is that each time you use it, you need to thoroughly clean and dry the basin that the water collects in. If you don't it will grow mold and a terrible stench. But, once you get in the habit of doing it , it's worth the time to have the cleaner house and less allergy problems, and less dusting.

Answer 3

They are the best purchase any one can make for a home. I would say they are the cadilac of vacuums. It amazes me is how clean and fresh smelling everything looks after using them . When I ran the regular vacuum my furniture got dusty from the vacuum now it looks great and smells great too.

I have one and I like the way it picks up and makes the house smell. If you use water you can add things like scented oils and febreze. The only thing that I had to get used to was mine is a canister and not an upright, therefore when I first used it it felt like I was a ghostbuster and R2D2 (starwars) was following me around. But Yeah I like it. I am also amazed at what the water looks like after you use it. It doesn't blow dust back out either
