based on my observations, this vacuum accessory has transformed the functionality of my CANISTER vacuum. The added length of the 24" hose has made cleaning hard-to-reach areas a breeze. I am impressed with the durable construction and secure fit to my vacuum. The only downside is the added weight of the extended hose can make the vacuum slightly cumbersome to maneuver. Overall, I highly recommend this product for anyone looking to upgrade their vacuuming capabilities....
