Great attachment for Hoover Windtunnel Rewind
By D. Sabo on Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2017
I bought this to use with our Hoover Windtunnel Rewind Pet edition. The tools and attachments that came with the vacuum were lacking to say the least and while you could detach the hose, it had very little reach. With this set, I'm now able to get to all the high spots and corners I could never reach before. Upon first use, I had a moment where I didn't think it would work - the attachment hose appeared too large to fit into the vacuum hose. Fortunately, the attachment is made of a slightly flexible material. The plastic/rubber is thick and doesnt feel malleable at first. But with a slight squeeze I was able to fit it into the on-board vacuum hose and it produced a tight fit.The length and included wands allowed me to easily clean A/C vents, ceiling fans, light fixtures, etc without excessive reaching. A note about the horsehair brushes included. I've read comments that the bristles tend to get pulled inward during use, and they do. However in my experience with it, this occurred after cleaning areas high in dust / pet hair etc. When the dust and hair get entangled with the brush, the pull of the vacuum will suck it inward. Simply taking off the attachment and using the hose to clean the brush for 10 seconds took care of it and I was back to cleaning. Don't let a minor issue like that stop you for getting a great tool like this.

Simple and solid - requires some duct tape though
By Noelle W Dempsey on Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2016
I purchased this to go with the Carpet Pro Commercial CPU 2 Upright Vacuum Cleaner. What appealed to me about these two items was its simplicity. The less complex construction the easier it is for me to fix myself. The hose is very, very long. So it makes storage a bit of a challenge but I use an old Ikea bag and they all fit in there. The hose is basically a giant coil wrapped with some kind of tough plastic. Ir reminds me of the old fashioned hoses which is fine with me! One complaint I have is the hard plastic handle on the end of the hose kept coming off. It attaches by being wound around the coils of the hose. While I was using it the handle would twist and pop off. I ended up using the universal "duct tape" method of repair which makes it look pretty cobbled together but, again, reminds me of my mom's old vacuum cleaner ha. The extension hoses only attach by being pushed together - no buttons to click. Again, simplicity. So it takes a bit of extra force to be sure they'll stay together. All in all this is a simple set of vacuum attachments. Some would say..primitive? Which was exactly what appealed to me in the first place.
