I have owned both brands, and I can personally say that I like the Kirby more. It is probably the most universal cleaner on the market because it can go from an upright to a canister, and even break down into a "compact cleaner" to be used on mattresses and stairs. It may be heavy, but it is powered by a self-propulsion system called "TechDrive", where you simply put the vacuum in drive, and off you go! The one thing that I'm not crazy about with the Kirby is the fact that you have to purchase bags.
The rainbow is a great cleaner too, but it is very inconvenient to dump the soiled water out every time you use it, but it definitely beats buying bags! It is heavy and awkward to move up stairs let alone to clean them.
Performance-wise, they are both brilliant with cleaning all types of floor surfaces. But when it boils down to it, the Kirby is a little more convenient with less maintenance.

Is a rainbow vacuum better than a Kirby vacuum?
I love my rainbow it uses water to clean your air it doesn't have holes like dry filter vaccumes that let dust fly back into the air like Kirby they are to heavy and bulky they stink over time and it cost too much to keep buying bags and belts. The rainbow cleans better and shampoo better. The sales people are nicer and put no pressure on you like Kirby. Kirby people put rainbow people down. But rainbow people are very humble and when I ask them what they thought about Kirby they said Kirby's are good but they have bags that have small holes like any dry vac does and get clogged and air flow depletes over time. The only reason it works great now is that it's new but in a few months it doesn't suck as good.
