    Bought a Rainbow D2 today, need advice

    Update: I just found schematics of the D2 on the Rainbow website. It seems that they have lots of replacement parts for this old version.

    Bought a Rainbow D2 today, need advice

    Thank you guys. Now I understand why the vac itself and the bagfull of accessories weren't side by side in the lot for sale. On the D2 hose, is the connector a 3 pin at one end and a 2 pin at the other end? I ask the question because the connector on the power nozzle I have is a 2 pin. Maybe the...

    Not an Electrolux, but an Electro

    MIne has its original shake-out cloth bag too, but i'm looking for something that could catch more dust. I'd be curious to see what your flat filter looks like, does it look like factory made?

    Bought a Rainbow D2 today, need advice

    Was also included in the bag of accessories a gizmo called an Aqua-mate, I suppose it is used to clean carpets and rugs, is it actually efficient and easy to operate?

    Bought a Rainbow D2 today, need advice

    Hey there! I've been busy today in the vacuum cleaner department, I bought lots of ELectrolux stuff. Also the seller had a Rainbow D2 for sale, something I don't know a lot about except that it uses water to catch the dust instead of a bag. He had a bag full of accessories so I decided to...

    Not an Electrolux, but an Electro

    I was given an Arrow ELectro today. The canister is in very good shape, the chrome is lightly pitted, but I think a good paste and elbow grease will get rid of it. The motor feels very strong, succion is powerful at front end, so is exhaust at the other end. I suspect there was a filter at the...

    Electrolux AP100 ✨✨✨

    Nice find ! I have 4 of them in my basement, but none as complete as the one you bought. The color is actually beige, light beige for some parts and dark beige for the others. THe motor is pretty durable, most of them need a bearing change and brushes change, that's about it. THe weak part...

    Elux DIplomat Lx poor succion

    Hey there! I just bought this Diplomat Lx. I had to fix the rocker switch to make it work, it didn't when I bought it. Now I find it pretty noisy, and the succion is far from what it should be. WHat puzzles me is that it blows a fair amount of air through the exhaust port, it is just like it...
