Beautiful vac, Keith.
I have that same style hose on a G. Not sure with all the Chinese hoses now of dubious quality, where one gets that style hose anymore.

I still think the clear, long piece of commercial heat shrink tubing is the way to repair the old hoses. I just don't want to fork over the $30 to try it and find out the hose is then too stiff.

woven hose Actually her original hose was a woven hose, I was getting them mixed up, I think what I bought her was a vinal hose, it has the ridges in it like most vacuum hoses. Since a vacuum is designed to clean, I would much rather have something that is going to work than just be on display. Her woven hose is definitely cracked, you can hear the air leaking in several places. Mike | ||

Kieth... your vacuums look like museum quality. Did get them so pristine or did you clean them up yourself? | ||

Reply to Fantomfan57: Hey there 👋👋👋! Thanks so much for the feedback! I've been lucky to have found or purchased these machine in either new or very good condition . They are kept either in the box and in cool dry storage. I do my best to preserve them. Thanks again for your kind words. Have a good weekend!
