Rainbow vac
Anyone have any experience with Rainbow Vacuums? My SIL has one and loves it. They are very expensive -- a worthy investment? I have 2 cats, 1 toddler and a baby on the way, a messy husband, and we are buying an older home that tends to be a little dusty, so I really want a good vacuum.
How is it changing the water rather than using a bag?
Appreciate any advice/insight!

My DH bought one. I refuse to use it because I don't want to deal with the canister. Dragging around a canister while vacuuming does not appeal to me at all. I also don't want to deal with the gross water. It's disgusting when he is done. He takes it outside and dumps it through an old screen. The lint and stuff gets tossed from the screen to the garbage.
The part about never having to dust again is a load of crock. I still dust weekly. It's too noisy to use as an air purifier if you're in the room. Accessories that normal people need like a stair attachment cost extra (ridiculous, considering the initial cost of the vacuum).
I wouldn't pay full price for one through their demonstrators. If you're considering it, look for refurbished ones online. I don't care for the high pressure sales tactics.
My sister in law owns one. her husband was a door to door salesman for them for a while. lol. She swears by it. I always laugh a little when they bust it out if someone spills something on their floor, but they love it. They are still making payments on it but they say it's worth every penny. I haven't tried it out to know first hand, but SIL says it works like a dream.

I have an old one, and I hate it. My mil loves them and insisted we have one, so she bought one for us at an auction sale. I find the water to be a pain (especially in the winter, having to trek through knee deep snow to throw it out). I also don't find the suction to be that great on it.
I clean houses and when this rainbow dies, I will be buying a dyson or miele, which I have used at some of my clients houses and I like them a lot better.
