Cen-Tec Systems97217 35 Ft. Central Vacuum Direct Connect Electric Hose with Flush Handle and Hanger, Silver, DC, 35 Ft. DC Hose

Love the cover for my hose and even though it’s not a Nutone product it works perfectly in my plugs …

Purchased an original nozzle and hose just like this one directly from BEAM about five years ago for $325, this one looks exactly the same but cost half as much, and it works exactly the same.

Good value for the money. Hose is lightweight, but may kink if not careful. Probably could spend more & get a little better hose, but this one is petty good.

I wish the hose was off a thicker plastic. It crimps all the time. And the part where the hose enters the handle should be reinforced so the hose does not bend there as well. Otherwise I am pleased with the product.

The hose itself seems a little too light weight; I didn't try but it didn't seem as rugged as my "crushproof" hose but that isn't the reason I returned the item. I like it when the handle can swivel around the hose. That required a mechanical connection between 4 pairs of copper strips inside the handle around the circumference of the hose and on the hose surface around its circumference. The 4 strips connect the low and high voltage as the handle swivels around the hose.. The cost for that 4 strip mechanical connection that allows dual switch operation swiveling around the hose is one of the reasons the electric hose is expensive yet this one is expensive and both ends are connected fixed. For most this would be an issue, it is for me especially at the cost.

It works perfectly for my Beam

Three way switch stopped functioning after one day of use. Will give it one more try - replace with the same item via amazon.

It doesn’t permanently stay kinked, and it also doesn’t scratch surfaces that it rubs against!!!

This replaced the original hose (20+ years). The new hose seems to have a softer & lighter shell which means it's easier to maneuver when vacuuming.
