Designed to answer one of the principal issues with canister or upright vacuums - How do I vacuum difficult to reach spaces like stairs or elevated surfaces without having to lug the vacuum? Carrying a vacuum onto stairs and balancing it while you try to clean the risers isn’t safe. This package allows you to leave the vacuum at the base of the stairs and clean a normal set of stairs without having to move the vacuum or risk it falling down the stairs. Unlike stretch hoses which extend a spring of wire in the hose that pulls back the more it is ex¬tended, this is a traditional hose that won’t add resistance when fully extended.
