Coolest new gadget @ MF.

A new Hose Hook from the Maker Company that not only fits 2.5 hose but tucks within itself so you can keep it on the hose or wand safely.

 

[Larry Cobb]

Looks like storing it on the wand would keep it handy.

I was going to post a new product release but instead I'll just add to this thread.

We originally designed them to fold around the hose so that they won't get lost. I figured that's probably why most people but them. Also we put the heavy webbing around the hook so that it can hold up when being dragged around on the hose.

Besides not losing them its also handy to have them right there when you need them.

So hopefully it will save you some time and money.

The ones we brought to Mikefest were the first ones made. if your interested in getting any, GreenGlides, Superior Cleaning Systems, and ProLine will getting some in stock in couple of days.

Thanks to all the people who stopped at our table at Mikefest. It was good time, and great to feedback our products.

Although i DIDN'T see the HOOK...i been usin' one for YEARS to hold the hose from falling down the steps...it wraps around the hoses and had a rubber hook that grabs a spindle or rail on the steps....really nuthing new here folks...move on!

Maker has bought the patent on the Hook shape.

 

[bob vawter]

cool...i hope it's RUBBER coated!

Bob,

The new thing is that the hook folds down around the hose. This way when your done with it you can just fold it down instead of carrying it around where you may lose it and when you need it its right there. It's about convenience. That's something you can't do with the hook your talking about. Also the webbing we use on the hook is more durable than rubber.

 

[bob vawter]

OK...can you post a better picture...showing the hook...thanks!

 

[maker]

The pictures above show the hook. The metal does not come out.

 

[bob vawter]

So WHAT holds this to the steps....then?

 

[Mikey P]

:shock:

 

[bob vawter]

can't re-invent the wheel.....

Apparently the pictures are not as clear as I thought.

Unfortunately our digital camera is broken. We will be getting another one in the next day or two and then I can post pictures of it in use. If you look at the picture of it on the hose- that shows it folded it up for storage. All you do is unstrap the hook to use it.

 

[bob vawter]

Some of you people need real jobs................

 

[Bruce Humphrey]

I guess you are saying that the red outlined piece is the hook?

 

[SRI Cleaning]

Ok so that has metal in it? i thought it was just some sort of strap hanging off the end. Cool!

 

[bob vawter]

I feel lik this is a TwiLight Zone episode.......!

 

[XTREME1]

I hook in both directions. Whatever I am hooked to is surrounded. that is something for one of you guys to invent. no matter how the hose is shifted it is alwas secure

can't teach an old dog new tricks may be more appropriate here


Greg,

You may want to check out our SuperStrap- it will give the hold your looking for.

Worry not Steve, Bob is just kind of our resident senile dumbass, you just have to listen to him with a light attitude and laugh as you scroll on by.

 

[bob vawter]

Seems ta be a preponderance of peeples that lik OTHER peoples ideas on here.....of course I would fit that description as well...since I DO re-pop the Steam Genie also......but at least i don pretend that it was MY invention......
