Great instructions, now where do I get the replacement hose. I can’t seem to find one anywhere, please tell be where to look

Rob the hose from the hard floor attachment, you probably do not use it as at low speed the brush head is awesome on hard floors.

I found a hose that is a perfect fit. EVERBILT 6 ft Bilge and Pump Discharge Hose. 1-1/8 inch ID. Got it at Home Depot.

How did you get the hose from Home Depot to work? I’d like to try it, and I was hoping you would give some advice.

Thank you so much for this recommendation! The Everbilt Bilge and Pump hose works perfectly!!! And now I have back up if I need to replace it again.
Thank you for the instructions as well Shelby! So much better than spending another $50 on a replacement head!
