When I bought my brand new 2 speed in 2006... over the years I've been so tempted to upgrade... but I just couldn't bring myself to do it since mine was perfectly fine...Thinking back, I think I've changed my HEPA maybe 3 times... I did have to have it fixed once....but the tech said I should never have to worry about it again... that the part he fixed was actually recalled years ago and I must not have known (I didn't) and it finally gave out on me... I'm trying to remember what it was... a control board? Apparently there was a recall on them a couple of years after I bought mine and I didn't know. I think it was like 2018..
No matter what cool model comes out in the future... I'm keeping my rainbow. I think it will outlast ME as long as I continue to maintain it and I'm totally happy with it... The stupidest unncecessary purchase I made years ago was a Sirena... not that it's horrible. I just didn't need it. I like my rainbow so much better...Oh well. LOL |

We won’t be due for a new machine for quite a while. The E-Series lasted from 97-2019 with a lot of adjustments and improvements over those years. The same will happen with the SRX. While it is a decent machine it will go through improvements just like every rainbow that has ever hit the market to make it a better machine. Like most new things, it’s about trial and error. By the end of the E2 black, the machine was perfect! The only thing I didn’t like at the end of the E2B and don’t like now, is the new filter material. I feel it is too thick in comparison to the white E series filters, and restricts more airflow. That’s my opinion though.

I've had the same Rainbow D4C since 1996 and it just keeps going. I think the only upgrade I have ever wanted was a E2 Black. I just never got around to it. I have no interest in getting rid of my D4Cand I use it all the time still. The SRX for some reason doesn't have as much interest for me. It looks nice and has so e nice features. But if I was going to upgrade I would go with the E2 Black.
