Here is the water bucket assembly, there are pieces that go inside. It is designed to use 3 quarts of water.

Here is the underside of the power unit with the 2 filters in place. There is another place that screws in over this. Unfortuatnly, it seems that the last owner committed the water vacuum sin of leaving the unit together wet...these filters smell like a wet basement. | ||

The back side of the unit has the speed control. 1 and 2 is suppose to be for the air purification mode, 3 and 4 is for vacuuming, 5 and 6 is for shampooing.

The power nozzle is made by Technica. It has an auto shut off when the wand is locked into the upright position as well as a shut off switch in the handle of the hose. | ||

I have a Big Power (in fact, I have two - one with a separator like the Rainbow but that's the newest model). The original big power is a filthy mess to clean out. The bucket with the holes in the bottom drips wet pet hair when you lift it out, and you have to use your fingers to pull the wet hair off of it. The bucket is too big to rinse in the sink, you have to use the bathtub to clean it out. After one use, I say "no thanks" and have never used it again. It IS interesting and colorful, but very poorly thought out.

Cam, could you show how the pieces fit together please? It looks easier to clean out than my H2O which is like a gig saw puzzle, | ||

Glad I like my Kirby. Anyone that thinks a Kirby is hard to use should try one of these. I'm not a big fan of the Rainbow due to the set up and take down. But this Big Power is over the top by my standards. Pass thank you very much. | ||
