Get yourself a Miele C3 Complete Marin. It is the top-rated power nozzle canister in current Consumer Reports test rankings and it excels at pet hair pick up on carpets. If and when you move to a home with mostly bare floors, you can always splurge for a second set of compatible lighter wands and non-electrified hose to make cleaning of non-carpeted surfaces even easier on the arms.
Check out YouTube for some user reviews of the Marin - it’s a pretty dependable all-around vacuum. |

Don't buy a Marin . Why there's nothing mechanically wrong with the Marine There's no reason to overpay. Walk into a dealer and buy a home care model you will get a few extra accessories and a longer warranty. The C3 Home Care full retail is $950 the C3 + same as the brilliant full retail of $1200 most dealers will also negotiate pricing from there hopefully somebody in vacuum land is willing to hook you up with one as well being vacuum collector.

@markhenry yes these are us native models. I would recommend one with an SEb228 or a SEB 236 power nozzle. The turbo nozzles really lack power. I would stick to a vacuum bag it's really convenient and traps the Dust. If you have allergies I would run there HEPA filter if there are no allergies I would run the charcoal filter to deal with odor. Both filter very well.
Your name says USA next to it are you in the US? |

But Alex, it looks like the HomeCare version has all the controls on the handle - isn’t that more repair prone and problematic? Wouldn’t it be safer to get the Marin that has the control panel on the canister itself? The only switch on the Marin’s handle is the power nozzle on/off toggle.
As an aside....I like the blue colour better. :-D |

The HEPA in a Rainbow dose not last a lifetime ,filter life is 1-3 years. I would say the Rainbow has less water lift then the Miele . But the rainbow has more CFM then Miele from my experience . I do not know what they clam it is . Here is a test of a Miele from 1998. CLICK HERE TO GO TO vacuumdevil's LINK |

@blackheart
Just because somebody photoshopped there air flow results into a picture, does not make it accurate or fact. I've seen many of these inaccurate info posted on here. Both of those machines are top of the line and clean very well it'll come down to handling and personal preference. Fact of the matter is that we are discussing Ferrari versus Lamborghini. They're both adequate they fast. :) @n0oxy I agree with you 100% you need both. Which is why I have a central vacuum. |

Mark your location says USA but you keep reffering to Miele models i'm unfamiliar with. The Cat and dog in the US is white, has the electric SEB-228 nozzle, body speed controls, and a handheld turbine brush and sells for 949. I'm also unfamiliar with a blue model that has speed controls on the handle. As far as i know in the US the only two that have them are the bronze-ish C3 brilliant and the C3 homecare +. the suction motors also top out at 1200w there are no 2000w mieles here....
Also where are you getting the figure for 4000 for a rainbow? I've heard they go from about 1600-2400 new, of course your haggling ability effects it. I apologize if i'm prying i'm just very confused and it makes it harder to discuss machines when we're talking about different countries. Miele's US lineup is pretty different as the majority of consumers desire a power nozzle here. |
