Broan Nutone by Drainvac 30FT Crushproof Central Vacuum Hose with Swivel Handle, On/Off Switch and Kink-Resistant Hose – Fits Most Inlets – Dark Grey

ordered it, paid for it, and it showed up. All is good

I really like this hose. The handle makes it easier to hold in a more natural position to vacuum. It feels different and is lighter weight than my original hose, but that makes it easier to carry. It is a very tight fit into my outlet, but while it makes it hard to manager where the outlet is behind a chair, it gives better suction.The only negative I have to say about it is that the handle came disassembled and we had to try to assemble it with no instructions. I eventually figured it out, but it does not stay on unless, as I did, one runs a length of tape around it to keep it from separating. Once I did this, I have no complaints.

They don't make hoses like they used to but this one seems like ,if you are carefull, will hold up for a while. It fit my existing vacuum fittings well I bought it to replace a Hayden hose that had gone bad. I won't be pulling very hard on it and will watch for snags so I expect it will hold up well. It seems like no one makes those old bulletproof hoses anymore from 50 years ago.

The built in handle switch is convenient though it requires the correct wall connector and proper alignment (our older model did not have this).Hose is not wire-reinforced, so it can kink relatively easily (like if pulled around a corner too tightly, or pulled against its natural coiled shape) - i.e., proven to be NOT "crush-proof". Also, this hose tends to want to keep its coiled shape and requires some effort to un-coil to more easily use at full length. The plastic of the hose is 'slippery' so that it wants to slide out of its coil shape when hanging on its rack.

It's harder to push in than the original and the end piece wasn't glued

I like that this hose is light weight and on/off switch is easy to use - much easier than my old sliding switch. The only draw back is on the on/off switch, as it is easy to turn off accidentally when you are using it.

The light weight hose has excellent suction power and does a great job on our floors and carpets. Very pleased with this product. Highly recommended!

It is great. It is only hard to straighten out when vacuuming. It keeps curling up. Tough plastic which will help to keep crushing it. I hope amazon will answer if the curling up matter will cease with use and time?
