Rainbow Score!

[firebirdman55]

I’ve always been into Kirby’s, Hoover’s, Eurekas....etc. I’ve always liked uprights, but have really wanted to try a Rainbow. A gentleman posted an ad on Facebook Marketplace, so I contact him...a Rainbow SE, and a Rainbow E series plus attachments and shampooer for the SE...all for $25. So, I went and got them and don’t regret it a second. The SE is in very nice working condition, but the E series power nozzle doesn’t seem to want to work unless I press the little red button on top of the nozzle half way down. I’m pretty sold on them, they are such excellent cleaners.

What a great score! I paid quite a bit more for my SE that I’m in the process of rebuilding now. I’d love to find an E series machine but every one I’ve found is going for 100s of dollars. Enjoy!

Hey

I scored a e2 type 12 for $30 and sold it for a nice profit. I bought my wife e2 2 speed gold with Wessell werk power nozzle. It's awesome. I aquired the newest rainbow not sure if it is black or blue. It has the newest shampoo system. I want to say rainmate or aquamate 3. Which tank was cracked. The power nozzle needed yolk replaced. I put a new filter water separator and water basin. It's super quiet. I would love to keep it but I have to sale it.
People don't know how to care for most rainbows. I will say if maintained they last. I can see why people love them.
That is quite a score. A good rainbow is hard to find. A quality one you can afford almost never happens. Quite the dea
