In response to comments made by Jerry on March 1st, 2004 11:19 PM to the unregistered user that made comments about Filter Queen being a better vacuum than the Rainbow. They obviously know nothing about either one. I have sold both of them and the Filter Queen does not even come close to the Rainbow, no vacuum cleaner does.
The Filter Queen does lose air low if the filter gets dirty or clogged on the intake side. Any vacuum that uses a bag and or filter will. The Rainbow does not lose airflow, which by the way is what does the cleaning not he suction as most people think. The Rainbow is also safe. It has been tested and approved by the Canadian Standards Association and by Underwriter Laboratories. It has also been commended by Parents magazine and is guaranteed by Good Housekeeping as well as having a factory warranty on it.
Put a Kirby vacuum cleaner, which is a real good dust spreader, in its canister configuration and put its hose to the hose on the Rainbow and the Rainbow will suck the bag flat on the Kirby.
