Review on Faucet U495S 69 PK 69 Inch Stainless Chrome by Joseph Long

I have a Delta hand shower (model 51704) in my shower. The fitting is eight years old and the connecting hose that came with it is starting to fall apart. The hose wasn't metal like I thought, it was vinyl hose wrapped in a plastic helix that looked like metal but wasn't. This replacement tube is the same length as the original tube (69 inches) and I love it. Much better than original. I should have replaced it many years ago and made my life easier. This replacement hose is made entirely of metal (stainless steel) and is more flexible than the original hose. The ends of the connectors fit the hand held shower and shower head perfectly. Technically you have to put teflon tape on the screw head to prevent leakage, but I just screwed it on and it's ok. Even without tape, there were no leaks. The nickel finish of my hand shower. This color is listed as chrome/stainless steel but when I look at it in the shower the difference in finish is so slight. I really don't see any difference and it's pretty much the same.
