WONDERFUL! Simply Splendid! That long hose would be good to have in a Vinyl Version here at Casa Lux (Cant go copying you on names, now! i started calling my room Casa Lux in 2013, long before I knew of this site) to clean my stairs as im always afraid my vacuum will fall!
Simply Beautiful! Im honestly afraid to wash my woven hoses as the 2 Electric ones are PERFECTLY sealed and the straight suction ones have begun to fall apart Tremendous! Andy Rousonelos |

Congratulations ! It's always fun to find a rare part like this, and you've done a good job restoring it. When ever I clean hoses, when done, I make sure one end is higher than the other so air will naturally flow through with convection. Placing the lower end over a forced air source like a heat vent or fan helps to dry it out, too. |

Where can I find the turquoise 15ft hose like the one my parents had? I cant remember if it was non-electric or electrified; the hose was too worn & got thrown out (before my intrest in vacs began) |

Charles,
I'm so glad that "I" was able to fill one of your wish list! It is an honor for me to give it to you! Charles, who he is, wonderful, was able to give me a Lewyt wand and a handle for my XXX that the loonnngg hose came with. We certainly had fun discussing the "long" John Holmes hose! Vacuumland ROCKS!! |

I suggest, to someone, Château Electrolux...more cozy sounding.
