Found this at the Salvation Army for $8.92, cleaned it up, so now I have two E series Rainbows. 4 before pictures and 3 after clening pictures.

Awesome find!

I keep looking, but the thrift stores around here only have crappy low-end plastic vacs.

Now you've got one for upstairs and one for downstairs, right?

I hope you love your e-series as much as me! I never understood what all the hype was about until I got one. Now, I'm convinced. PLUS, it's the only vacuum to get a huge positive reaction from my wife - she loves the way the house smells so clean after vacuuming. She's never gotten excited about any of my other cool vacs, so it's not just me!

Congrats!

Great find! I really wish I could find a newer E series rainbow for $8!! The closest I've come so far is some lady selling a brand new one she bough and didn't like on Craigslist...but she is listing it for $1000, so a little rich for me right now. I guess my trusty ol' D3 will just have to get me by!

Awesome find for that small chunk of change. The thing that always made me want a rainbow was the smell after the house was cleaned too. My grandma had a d3 in the early/mid 80s that a salesman sold her and we used the hell out of that thing. I came home from school one day (we lived part time with my grandma) and she had just finished cleaning the house and when I walked in it smelled FANTASTICALLY clean and I never forgot that......

Later on when I could afford it I bought one in 2006 without a demo and I LOVE IT!! From 2006 until now and although I've used it a lot, I've taken care of it so it still looks and smells new inside and out. I think that this 2 speed rainbow I have will outlive ME...

It's the twins, the one on the left is 2002 and the one on the right is 2001 and yes that is dust on top of the 2002 model.
