#2 isn't ALWAYS bad...

I grew up with a D2 Rainbow my dad pulled out of a garbage pile. It's kind of a pain in the rear end, compared to modern bag and bagless stand-ups, but the suction power is simply astounding, and the newer models are apparently even more powerful.

They're expensive to buy new, but parts to rebuild them are readily available, if you have a slight bit of mechanical aptitude, and they depreciate hard, so they're good bargains. They're wet/dry, so you can also use them to sop up wet carpets, aquarium incidents, plumbing leaks, etc. rainbow even made an extended base tank for the task.

Plus, they look 50s/60s as gently caress.



If only I could get my girlfriend to vacuum in heels and a sundress...
