Very large, very nervous, very sloppy St. Bernard is a loving member of our family. We have laminate floors and should vacuum at least once a day to keep up with any visible dog hair. I bought a Cen-Tec System 92025 vacuum hose to save me the tedious task of moving our heavy duty Hoover Dual V. Wind Tunnel vacuum around the house. It took a bit of finding a combination that would connect the hose to the vacuum with the adapters provided. But life got so much easier once I plugged it in and turned on the vacuum! Now I just place the vacuum in a central area and with an extremely light 20ft hose, two extensions and a soft bristled floor brush, I can easily vacuum 3 rooms in our house. I only have to move the heavy vacuum cleaner once to clean the whole house. This is a great product that I recommend to everyone.
