This is exactly what I was looking for to replace the cheap plastic tubing that came with my 6 gallon Stanley Shop Vacuum (SL18116). It's incredibly well packaged, durable, clicks like a Swiss lock and fits perfectly with accessories. I don't understand why people complain that it's too short, the description says the exact length. I think some people overlook the hose handle which is a separate part and helps to find the right length and angle for use as a canister vacuum.
