We have a refurbished Rainbow that we bought about 7 years ago. I do agree that the tag-a-long kind are a little tedious but since we now have all wood floors, I absolutely love it. My mom has one that she bought brand new and it is now over 20 years old. She has it checked over and cleaned every few years and it works (and looks) like new. What I like about the Rainbow is the water-filtration way it has of cleaning. I've heard really good things about the Dyson (my sister who has 3 large shedding dogs in the house swears by hers!) but since we have wood floors, I like the hard floor connection that the Rainbow offers.
