I find the gas pump style hose is uncomfortable for me to use,I prefer the pistol grip style. |

The gas pump style is so-so when used strictly for vacuuming carpet, but for almost any other task, its useless. The pistol or curved style is perfect for carpet AND non-carpet tasks. |

Hans, You would be difficult...and different...LOL Pistol Grip for me, gas pump style is completely useless. But, Hans, you are correct, the best and most useful of all are Air-Way and Kirby with the straight hose end and curved wand. I love using the older style Kirby tools, the short hose end makes using the dusting brush, upholstery tool a snap. Fits into almost any place you need it. Straight, simple and to the point. Try using any of the moderns stuff...it just about impossible. Morgan |
