I have a 'deluxe' version of the 2009 Widepath Tempo with light and bag change indicator. The hose that came with it was a cheap piece of plastic junk that easily breaks forever. The recommended replacement is even less satisfactory than the original hose. This hose is very high quality compared to this one, it is much more flexible and crush resistant. I have attached an image. The outer hose is old, but the inner one is this one.
