Review on πŸ”Œ WORKSHOP Wet/Dry Vacs Vacuum Accessories WS25022A: Extra Long 20-Feet Locking Wet/Dry Vac Hose for Versatile Wet/Dry Shop Vacuums by Vincent Poolaw

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Comes with a 'secret' cut flaw in the hose

Ordered to fit the shorter (1-7/8) long vacuum cleaner to replace hose in workshop. It was one of those high quality hoses, but because it was smaller things got stuck very easily; So back to the tried and true 2-1/2" hose. Had to undo the entire sprocket and gate setup to install this. Checked before installing this hose. Excellent suction. Put this hose on and suck less than that old hose. a? I thought I did something wrong by plugging in the connection. Verified. No, but the suction was about the same as the old smaller hose. Doesn't seem right. When I rolled it back I noticed accidentally cut about 1/2 to 3/4" or more of a defect in the hose. Couldn't believe it. NO MIRACLES less suction power! It appears identical to the Home Depot hose but is more convenient to order from Revain. Lately I've noticed that the price of this has fluctuated wildly from $30 to over $40 (HD was always $30) I was waiting for the price of this one to be $30 and ordered it, saved me more time Always undo and reinstall the vacuum system. I'm starting to think it's a cheap fake made in China, but maybe it's HD. Be careful when ordering this and check carefully with a vacuum cleaner. If you look at it again before going back, the material seems cheaper, stiffer and thinner than the HD hose; so easy to hack, but my defect was more of a defect. Of course I threw away the box it came in and I had to assemble a large box to send it back. Revane asked no questions and gave me free courier delivery so that was good. Attention buyers!

Pros
  • Locking tab allows easy removal of wet and dry hose for storage, unlike some store-bought vacuum hoses
Cons
  • Only available in black
