Review on Dyson DC07 Aftermarket Vacuum Purple: Powerful Cleaning at an Unbeatable Value by Jessica Nunez

As some other reviews have noted the purple color of the plastic is a bit darker than the actual Dyson vacuum. It doesn't bother me at all. The only issue I have with the hose is that when you attach the hose handle to this hose (to use a hose extension instead of the normal vacuum configuration) the hose doesn't snap onto the handle very well. If you happen to use a wand - and just hold on to the wand - this tube will break. So when I use the hose extender, all I have to do is position my hand so that I'm holding the end of the hose and the top of the hose. If you have small hands, you may need to use both hands to hold them together. Even with this issue (which only occurs when using a wand) the hose works as expected. For less than $13, this is a good deal.
