Lil Better Vac Hose Empty Lil Better Vac Hose

Post by Pat Sun Sep 22, 2013 7:04 pm

Like I said in the other thread, I just bought 200 feet of Lil Better vac hose. I bought two 100 foot sections and I can't believe that I waited so long to get it. Since the hose I was using seemed to work okay, I waited. I rolled up the Lil Better on my reel and kept 50 feet of the old brand on there. It was a great way to compare the difference although it was unintentional.

It is a lot lighter and easier to handle than the old stiff hose that I had. I really was able to see how bad that other hose really was and I'll be getting another 50 foot section real quick. So if you have been thinking of getting new vac hose, I hope that my review helped.

Even to a uneducated guy (my brother) the difference is obvious. He keeps asking my what is wrong with the blue hose (interlink), it is like hard plastic compared to the other stuff (Lil Better).

I use the blue crap on pet urine jobs only and they are just junk. Actually had one that was coiled up in the van break apart in 6 places when I went to take it out. Hard to imagine people using that stuff daily.

I have over 6 years of my 2" and two years on my 2.5". It gets abused in our -30C winters and dragged through a couple feet of snow. Best hose ever.

I wish I would of taken Joe up on his offer, of letting me send the stiff lil better hose with white liner back when I had the chance. The blue liner is very slinky as the white liner is stiff.

I ordered another 100 foot section of 2 inch(Joe says you'll get a better price Cool ) because I wanted to drop the old 50 foot that I had on there. I wanted a 40 foot section for one of my portable set ups and I thought I would have a 60 foot for my truck-mount.

I replaced the hose for the portable and loaded the old hose in my car. I just can't understand how I worked with this old hose for so long.Mad Question Question Shocked No  It was so stiff and difficult to maneuver and the new Lil' Better hose really is so much better, it definitely maneuvers better.cheers

I just got a 50ft section of Joe's 2inch lil better vac house to use on my Mytee M5. Just used it for the 1st time the other day and loved it. Had a 2inch vac hose i bought a long time ago, used it once and never touched it again, to stiff, heavy and hard to work with. Not the case at all with Joe's hose. In fact, if you can believe it, i had way better suction with a 50ft section of 2inch hose then i had with a 25ft section of 1.5 inch hose. Used my Mytee M5 as a porch mount, left it outside the front door and the 50 ft 2inch hose was plenty to do the whole house without having to move machine at all
