Securing this to some nozzles requires a very strong clamp or a screw because it is so sturdy and rigid. I gave it a five-star rating, though, because it is quite sturdy and there was no representation about methods of securing it to a nozzle, so the vendor cannot be blamed for that inconvenience; it can be dealt with.

I bought this to attach to my portable corded Toro leaf vacuum/blower.Reviewers' comments about Toro's own hose bagging gizmo were bleak, so I used this to design my own setup to blow shredded leaves into a trash can with my own design of a filter bag on top of the trash can. I think one problem was that I was also vacuuming small gravel and sticks, not simply dry leaves.I think this hose would do just fine for shop sawdust collection, as designed and marketed.This 3" diameter works very well with the amount of wind from my leaf vacuum, so the pneumatic aspect is good with my design. so there's that.I had to force fit the round hose onto a rectangular blower exhaust opening, so that may have caused some weakness where the hole developed. I will eventually improve my design, probably by fabricating my own sheet metal adapter, rectangular to round. The other end is attached to a round plastic adapter designed for use with this kind of hose, and with a hose clamp, as one might expect, and that end has no problem.At first, the hose wanted to retract back to its shrunken short length (like a Slinky), but with use, heat of the day, and constant extending during use, it easily stretched to its full 10' working length. Now it no longer wants to retract, which is not a problem.The wire is covered in thick black plastic. The hose itself is a milky white plastic, fairly thick. It is translucent so I can barely see when it gets clogged with leaves. Clogs only happen at the ends. On the far end, clogs occur where the hose hangs down with a sharp right angle bend. Not the fault of the hose. I should maybe put a 3" elbow there, but then I would not be able to see the clog. I do not think it would clog if I vacuumed only leaves; the clogs were full of partially ground tree twigs from a hail storm.Recommended good quality for sawdust collection.

The good with this hose is that it collapses well, and is fairly compact. What I am not 100% liking is when I pull to extend it it will have a lot of bends in it and it's fairly stiff. The bends are not great for suction overall but not a huge issue. I am going to change it's use to be a 2ndary connection on my Dust collection. Cut a 2 foot piece to come in the top of my router table, while the 4" goes down into the table, etc. I think for that use it will be really good. If you are looking for a hose that is maneuverable/ bendable/ etc, I would look elsewhere. If you want something collapsible that you can extend across the room for brief uses, etc this is a good hose. I have had NO Issues with durability (I've used hose clamps) at the connectors or anywhere else. Also, no clogging even though it has ridges. A good purchase that I have minor quirky issues with.

For its intended purpose, it worked well. The material is adequate for the job, very flexible. The coil is made out of plastic, not metal, but it looks durable, and it was easy to cut to length. You won't have to worry about rust ever. Overall, recommended.

I purchased this with the intention of using it for my CNC dust collector. This hose does not like to stay stretched out, rather, it likes to snap back into it's collapsed position. Fortunately for me, my wife has an old section of vacuum hose that I am adapting to the dust collector.

Ultimately I think I'm going to have to get something else. I had high hopes for this hose but will find another use. I originally bought it to connect my band saw, belt sander and drill press to my dust collection system but this hose is very very ridgid. It does NOT want to stay extended and in place. I had to have one of the kids hold it in place while I put a hose clamp around it... which crushed part of a rib on the hose and made it to where air was drawn in through this tiny little hole. Imagine my panic as I switched on the dust collector and heard this high pitched omnious wistling! Haha it was quite a laugh... AFTER I figured out what it was. ;)

Hands down worst dust collection hose ever. Hose tore in 4 places just stretching it open. Can’t connect without tearing. I wish there was a better word than pathetic to describe it. Don’t waste your money.
