LOL... my FIL has a Rainbow and it still works... don't remember how old it is but it is pretty dark old... i would guess at least 20 years? i think they were really expensive but it sure has lasted... of course i know he's repaired it a couple of times so that could be why too...
DH and i plan on getting a roomba eventually because then we could run it to supplement our regular vacuum...we're both rather allergic to dust and like sakigt posted, there is always cat litter and hair....
i read somewhere that in warm climates (for example, here where we live) cats might shed all year instead of just in the spring so we always have cat hair everywhere...
as for a good vacuum available now at an affordable price... i don't know but i think some of the previous posters had good suggestions... usually i look for reviews online before i buy things too...
