I use to think it was all the contaminates in my air but idk. Also would putting...

    bad reviews of Sebo Felix and Kirby

    I don't know anything about the Sebo brand or how they function, I can only speak for the kirby. Now as for the Kirby they haven't changed much, especially over the past 30 years. I feel like growing up using a kirby was ok, but it had its issues, as with all kirbys and Im going to list them and...

    yeah it gets warm on the side where the plus and minus buttons are at, the area where the decal sticker and sheild are at. The top doesn't get warm/hot, so I assume thats good.

    Parents new Rainbow

    recall issue I have a question that pertains to the recall issue that the SRX had recently. My unit was one of the ones affected by the recall and I had gotten it fixed but yet my unit still gets warm in the same spot. Is this normal? Also does anybody have any insight to what rexair is going...

    Parents new Rainbow

    Questions. When using the RainJet accessory, what other solutions can be used other than cleaned floor? Can I use pine sol or Lysol. Also when using the system as an air purifier can I also use pine sol or Lysol instead of the rainbow scents or any other brand of oils?

    Rexair video

    These are nice videos and is a nice insight to the company. I know I posted in the other thread but I'm curious to what Rexair has planned for their 85th Anniversary. With the launch of the SRX, we know its not going to be a new model. I hope theyre coming or planning on coming out with new/...

    Parents new Rainbow

    I haven't own any of the previous models but the SRX does have power to clean. Even using the longer 14ft hose I had plenty of suction power to do my hard to reach cleaning. I am curious to see what rexair has planned for their 85th anniversary, which is this year. Hopefully some new...

    Rainbow Air purifier mode.

    I have the SRX and it does a good job on speed 2 for air purification as for speed 1 I feel like it’s not doing as much air purifying as speeds 2&3. I do have a question about the mop attachment. Can we use other products other than the clean floor solution that’s recommended, if so what...

    Damage from using it as a blower

    This maybe irrelevant to be bringing up, but we’re due for a new Kirby anytime now. I mean avalir 2 (really sentria 4) is going on 3 years now. Time for something new

    Could someone post the picture of the prototype Kirby Avalir?

    Any reason to bring this topic up? Did Kirby finally release the REAL avalir? Or are they planing on sentria 5 aka avalir 3. Avalir 2 is due to be retired. I believe it’s been out for 2.5 years?

    Rainbow SRX Recalled

    I also purchased my SRX back in January. I use it maybe twice a week and haven't notice heating up or smoking near the outlet, let alone the unit itself. Granted I only use it for about 15-20 each time using it. I've yet to recieve any letter from Rexair about this issue, let alone be contacted...

    Rainbow SRX Recalled

    Another question I have is, is this a simple quick fix thing. Like can I go into a service store and have it done within a half hour or so? Or is this something that’s gonna keep my SRX in the shop for a little bit?

    Rainbow SRX Recalled

    How will these letters be sent out. Like will Rexair themselves send out the letters or will they sent it to the distributor who will then turn around and contact the customers themselves via these letters?

    Rainbow SRX Recalled

    My thing is this. If no body found out about it online such as here and a few other websites, then how would owners of the SRX, myself included, find out about this problem. I’ve had my unit for a little over 5 months and it seems to be working fine.

    Rainbow SRX Recalled

    I have an SRX and mines doesn’t seem to be acting this way. Would the distributor who sold me mines contact me if they think mines would have an issue? Because if it wasn’t for this I would’ve never known about said recall.

    Dyson v8

    If your and your mother in laws machines are within the 2 year warranty I would contact Dyson directly for assistance. The direct drive brush bar on my v7 stoped spinning after a year and 5 months of continuous use and Dyson replaced it for free, because it was still under the 2 year warranty...

    My new to me Rainbow E Series E2 Single Speed

    I have another random question to ask for my fellow Rainbow experts. What other solution can I use in the aquamate/ MiniJet accessories other than the aquamate solution. Also when using the sprayer/ rexafoamer attachment, what other solution can be used for that, since it’s a foam solution.
