Appliances

Rainbow carries some of the more difficult to find appliances. We focus on the higher quality units and price them very competitively. When comparing prices from USA websites be sure to take into account shipping, the exchange rate, and possible brokerage fees. Our prices are in Canadian dollars and we ship anywhere in Canada for $15.00 to $25.00 depending on the weight. We offer a full refund within 30 days for any reason although we ask that you pay the return shipping.

Although we have very little demand for centrifugal or twin gear juicers, these types are still available to us at very competitive prices.  We don’t see any appreciable benefit to twin gear machines over single auger, especially when the price factor is considered,  but a centrifugal style machine might be sufficient if a person:
1. Doesn’t want to juice leafy vegetables or wheat grass.
2. Drinks the juice right away before oxidation has a chance to destroy the enzymes and vitamins. Juice made with the Omega or Samson may be kept for 48 hours in the fridge.
3. Wants the larger feed tube and faster speed of juicing that is inherent in the centrifugal style juicer.
4. Is not interested in the single auger machine’s ability to make baby food, pasta, nut butters (raw or roasted), grind coffee or flax seeds, or make soy milk.

For more information, or to order an appliance, please contact Michael Kaplan.

BlendTec Blender

Blendtec is the main competitor to Vitamix in the high end, heavy duty blender market. Although smaller and lighter than Vitamix they are slightly more powerful with 1500 watts and 3 peak horsepower. The Blendtec website shows remarkable videos of the power of the Blendtec, reducing all sorts of objects to dust including golf balls, marbles, I-phones and skis. Blendtec also are manufacturers of super powerful commercial blenders found in the likes of Booster Juice so they know something of the blender business. This machine has 25 pre-programmed cycles to handle any blending job. Just set the program and walk away - it even shuts itself off when done. No need to stir - doesn’t even come with a tamper. 3 year warranty except for blade assembly which is lifetime. New larger 96 oz jar now available. Available in 4 colours: black, white, coffee and red.

Blendtec with 64oz (max) jar                   $499.00

Good4U Dehydrator

We have replaced Excalibur with the Good4U brand. Identical in operation to the Excalibur, the Good4U is more reasonably priced (made in China) and comes with a comprehensive 1 year warranty and 9 year warranty on the electrical system. Quieter and faster than Excalibur, it has received good reviews. Very attractive as well. Comes with 2 non-stick sheets plus the normal mesh ones. A timer is included.

Good4U dehydrator 

   6 tray (6 sq feet)       $169.00
10 tray (10 sq feet)     $199.00

  

Omega Juicer

Omega juicers are known for a quality product at a good price along with a generous guarantee (10 years). These single auger or masticating style machines juice virtually any fruit or vegetable, soft, hard, or leafy. They are powerful, quiet and very easy to clean. Also excellent for grinding flax or coffee, for making nut butters at home, for homemade pasta and baby food. We carry the 8004 (white) and 8006 (shown left) models. These models have an extra durable auger and an amazing 15 year total guarantee.

The new Omega VERT's design has a larger feed chute and smaller footprint, while providing the benefit of a low 70 RPM rotating auger to ensure that the maximum nutrients are captured in your juice. It has a patented stone mill-like screw which is 8 times stronger than augers on other single auger juicers. This juicer will process veggies as firm as carrots and as fine as wheatgrass. Covered by a 10 year guarantee.

 

Model 8004 (white)      $299.00
Model 8006 (chrome)   $339.00
Model VERT                    $399.00     NEW!

   

Samson Advanced Juicer

Samson juicers are very similar to Omega juicers in operation, although somewhat different in appearance. They are quiet, powerful machines, juicing everything. This latest model now has a much stronger auger and filter screen and comes with a 15 year total warranty. Besides appearance the only differences from Omega are cleaning time (about 55 seconds) as compared to the Omega’s 45 seconds, and slightly drier pulp. Colour choices are white, almond, black or chrome.

White, Almond, Black         $279.00
Chrome                              $299.00

Green Power Juicer

Green Power juicers have twin stainless steel gears which gently crush the fibres of vegetables and fruit. The gears are magnetic to give the juice longer shelf life. It is very quiet and is easier to clean than other twin gear juicers. This juicer comes with a 10 year motor and 5 year parts warranty.

Green Power juicer   $529.00

Blueair produces energy efficient, well designed air purifiers with a 10 year warranty. These made-in-Sweden units are very quiet and offer excellent CADR (clean air delivery rate).

Santevia Gravity Water System

Santevia Gravity Water System

The Santevia Gravity Water System is a cost effective way to turn your tap water into clean, fresh-tasting, healthier water. An eight-stage, gravity powered filtration and re-mineralization system blocks bacteria, germs, parasites and particulates, and re-introduces minerals adjusting the pH to mildly alkaline. The magnetic spout activates the water molecules to make them more absorbable by the body. The unit is compact, uses no electricity or plumbing and can filter about 20 litres of water per day. The plastic is free of Bisphenol A.  For more information, go to www.santevia.com.

Santevia Gravity Water System $179.00
5-stage filter                                  $32.99

Needak Rebounder

Needak rebounders set the standard for quality and reliability which is reflected in the price. The Needak unit is substatially sturdier than the cheaper off-shore brands sold by the larger stores. The cheaper units will need constant replacement and more importantly will not give the famous “soft bounce” that Needak is known for and makes their units so nice to use. Rebounding is an excellent exercise for all ages and fitness abilities. One need only jump 5 minutes twice a day to achieve amazing results such as flatter stomach, stronger back and legs, more energy, improved lymphatic system, better balance, and by using light weights an upper body workout as well. Contrary to what most people assume, the jumping does not have to be vigorous - in fact your feet do not even have to leave the mat to achieve the above benefits (and we’ve only listed a few). Don’t take our word for it - do your own research on the web. Available in standard black and the new Platinum Edition - blue with a platinum edge to highlight the edge of the mat.

Folding model           $289.00
Non folding model   $259.00
Stabilizer bar                $69.95 (for those who might need the security of a handrail)
