does not have a separator
I could be wrong but I don't think this machine has a separator and if that is the case, I would avoid it, it will be a nightmare to clean out.

I seen a Rainbow vacuum at Salvation Army once, I made the mistake of opening it up to see why it had a note on it to leave water in it, oh my god what a smell, I about threw up. I don't understand why people still use vacuums like this that use a bowl of water as a bag. And my plumbing pipes would clog if I dumped that down my drains.
water filtration vacuums
Obviously the rainbow that you came across was not maintained properly. I have a rainbow and a Sirena, if you don't want to dump the water down the drain you can dump it outside. After each use, remove the basin and the separator and wash them in the sink, just like washing a couple of dishes after dinner. Reattach the separator and store the basin separate from the motor unit and the dolly. This will prevent any bad smells from ever having the chance to form. I don't think the oasis has a separator so it would be a huge mess to clean, avoid any water filtration machine that does not have a separator.

I second what Mike said.
I have, until recently ,dumped my Rainbow in the toilet for over 40 years, and have not had a problem.
I decided about a year ago to return from whince it came, so I dump my Rainbow, and Sirena in the compost bin.

I actually sold an Oasis to Phillip about three years ago.
They do not have a separator, they are HUGE (like pulling a coffee table behind you), but they do clean well.
They are VERY rare.
