I swear I have the worst luck with Vacuum hose. I think I have the Hydro force stuff. Today I was setting ups a job and just pulling it off the truck it broke at the coupling. There a good hose out there?

Maybe someone knows what SteamWay supplied with their TMs in '01.

It's the best hose I've ever owned.
Still using it as a matter of fact.

The stuff Steam Genie used in the late '80s was top of the line too

You can buy light weight or you can buy heavy duty, but you can't have both in one

I had their regular stuff and it lasted forever - about 3000 hours and never a problems. Stiff as heck though. I think CRS also carries the stuff from Greenie- I would get that. Very pliable.

Doesn't matter who had what back in the day, todays hose is subject to the penny pinching that everything else is.

We carry teh stuff we helped to create, it's avail. in two weights, SuperFlex, and Proflex, if you share the same mentality as Meat, you shoudl select the Proflex, it's a little stiffer but won't kink at the wand, the SuperFlex will want a bend restrictor if you have any kind of high heat, same price $99 a box of 50'.
