Hi Rob, Just a heads up. If you do get a new E2 Rainbow, don't get rid of your SE. I have an SE PE and an E Series. I put my E Series in storage and just use my SE PE. I am glad I had it to go back to. My SE PE actually has a little and I mean little better suction, but mostly I find it's water pan is much easier to clean. With the e series water pan, getting to the suction inlet to clean the clear plastic is a pain....I also don't know whether the hepa filter is a must. I always make sure not to vacuum non wettable materials. My exhaust port on the SE PE is never dirty when I check it. I will say this, the E Series is easier to empty than the SE PE water pan. Bud |

Im very curious to hear more about the new Rainbow. There is very limited information on their website, and I find that they arent discussed nearly as often here on the forum as other machines. I saw a youtube video of the E2 2 speed model and I was shocked by the noise of the motor, I would not want to use one in my house with that high pitched whining noise. The new motor that was mentioned sounds like its a huge improvement over the previous one and I would love to hear more about it. BTW I have never used a Rainbow but they do seem like very interesting vacuums, they just are not very popular in this area. One of my friends mother had an SE PE and there house was spotless, they even had a big golden retreiver and there was not the slightest trace of dog smell in their house. I would love to try one out one day!

Does anyone know the CFM's of the Rainbows? I thought I had heard 65CFM for the older D2 etc. and closer to 80 for the newer ones. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure. |
