Always remember, suction is not the cleaning part, it's the airflow. The simple way to show this is invert your suction gauge, put some seeds or a tissue on top of the rubber stopper, seal your hose to it, turn the machine on, measure the suction, while keeping the hose on the gauge, turn the machine off, wait for it to coast down to a stop and when you remove the hose from the gauge the tissue or seeds would still be there. Why? Because you need to move the air to move the debris. Suction helps with the induction of air flow but isn't necessary when you look at say a Kirby with its 40" of suction. The Rainbow E2 only does about as well as the Henry suction wise and the airflow is probably lower as well. I am amazed though with the performance of the Rainbow as it can find dirt in an otherwise clean looking carpet. Sometimes quite a bit more after vacuuming with other dry filter type bagged and bagless machines thoroughly.

There's another demonstration of this on KZfaq. I've just read they are rare.

Age-wise, this machine was produced in 2001-2002, originally sold more towards the international regions including Turkey, Israel, Poland, and Russia. Not a great seller - the machine would smell if water wasn’t exchanged. Manufactured in the same factory as the canisters - hence the common tools, and 4-lug hose connector. Hope this info is helpful

…. The very concept of the “dry” dirt on your carpet/hard floors and surfaces getting wet and then being flushed down the toilet = the local sewage treatment works/the water board having to deal with that additional dirt, in comparison to being sucked into a bag > being taken out of the vacuum and thrown into your wheely bin > the dustmen coming with the dust cart and emptying the bin into it > driven to the “dry waste” plant where it is incinerated/burned [even better if the incinerator also generates electricity from the waste] I much prefer the latter

I've never really cared for water filtration. It's way too messy and complicated compared to a bag or bagless system. With that said, Rexair probably has the best system with the Rainbows (for as good as it can be). Of course, you're paying an arm, a leg, and a lung, for a Rainbow, but if one must insist on water filtration, it's really the only good option.

it's like a gross porridge! I don't see the sense in a machine like this.

What a faf, i bet most of these machines ended up never getting emptied and stinking, i would probably be half decent if it could be converted to take a bag.

This machine was also sold under the DeLonghi and Sunbeam brand in South Africa.

I've never heard him say a vacuum this bad

Its name is Water Jet but there’s no pump for spray extraction function? It can’t have been a three in one cleaner… there’s no exit hole for the solution tube either…

I've always dreamed of a vacuum cleaner like this and it's great to see your video in front of me hours later.

Been waiting ALL DAY for this to very video to drop!!! SUPER excited to see this one!

i love numatic vaccums im only on your channel for numatics your videos are amazing

Never seen such a thing.

That turbotool looked great!!!!

Wow interesting unboxing, the China UK equivalent of a Rainbow 🌈 😂

"Carry on cleaning" love it 😂

Did you use the Shark Cordless Vacuum cleaner some time for daily use?

It does turn on and there aren't any broken parts :)

Looking at the U shape of the mount for the orange incoming dirt pipe & water shields , it looks like you could leave all that gubbins out and fit a standard Vax bag (like the dry vac/shampooer models use) ?
