Reviewer: H. Nelson,
Ignore all those with a gripe about what it will and won't fit. It only fits bag models. Ignore those with quality issues. It's the same construction as the original hose, or at least not detectable to me. It's the same hose that will compress with the suction of the vacuum, so you still have to be careful not to pull to hard and tip over the vacuum. This really helps to get up high without having to place the vaccuum on a chair. I purchased this for $13 bucks, must have been a great sale on Amazon at the time... maybe they will change it back for you.
zing!

The 20' hose is a must-have with the wind-tunnel vacuum because the hose that comes with the vacuum is wee tiny and pretty worthless. But I'm not sure you're ever going to see 20' of real usable hose with this thing because it's got so much zing and recoil. I'd be afraid it'd snap like a rubber band if I ever really put it to the stretch test.
As it is, every time I pull more than 10' out of this hose, the windtunnel upright falls over and makes such a loud KERPLOP that it scares me out of my wits. Doesn't matter which direction the windtunnel is facing, one yank on the hose and the vacuum falls over like a drunken sailor (but makes much more noise).
In short, I've had this hose for about nine years and it's sturdy and strong and useful but it doesn't provide a true 20' of usable length. The good news is, when it gets clogged with debris, a few good shakes and whatever's caught inside will tumble right out.
A great addition to my Hoover Upright

I am so glad I saw this item on Amazon.com. Over the years, I had been forced to use both my upright and a canister vacuum...the canister was used to clean around the baseboards. Now that I have the extended hose, I can vacuum my entire home with my upright...which has much better cleaning power than my old canister vac. Although the actual intent is to totally replace the original hose on the vac with the extended hose, I kept the regular hose in place...snipped off the clips of the extension hose so I can now insert it into the original hose. This way, I really have a great extension hose. The price is right too, so don't hesitate to get one. I bought extras for my kids too as they have dogs, and having an extended hose makes vacuuming the furniture a breeze. Just to let you know...this extension hose is NOT intended for the bagless Hoover Upright, only the bagged cleaners. I don't know why, but it stated this on the package. Just be aware.

The extension hose makes it much easier to reach things. I took the advice from one of the other reviews and filed off the tabs on one of the hoses so that I could attach it to the hose that came with the vacuum, therefore giving me an additional few feet of length. Works great! Well worth the $.
Must Have Item for any Hoover WindTunnel

The original hose with the WindTunnel is too short to do stairs or reach any longer distance. This additional length really helps. Get a powered hand tool too for the ultimate vacuum!
