Zodiac Genuine Parts Twist Lock Hose- 1 Meter Replacement Kit, 12/PK, R0527800

Quality, fit, connection and flexibility will buy again and again.

Nice factory fit! Original set is 5 years old and I will replace them as they break down. Returned a”cheaper “ version that would not connect properly. Waste of money and time.

Since these tubes need to be replaced every year or so, buying the larger pack is a money saver, especially when compared to having them replaced by my pool guy. I had to replace every one of them year, can get expensive. Make sure you get tubes packaged in a straight, narrow box. Coiled ones don’t straighten out, and vac may not reach the edges of your pool, but if you already them, they work as a single replacement.

A few months ago I purchased a off-brand maker of this hose. It was backed in a circular shape. When it was unboxed, the shape remained stiff and circular. I allowed the sun to heat it with anticipation of it straightening. It never worked well. I finally purchased the factory brand. It made a big difference. It cost more but it’s factory specifications. It works !

Very convenient to have 12 instead of having to buy one at a time. Works great for my pool vac but the hoses do get brittle after a year or two so they do require the occasional replacement.

fits perfectly

Stop looking—these are the hoses you need! Whatever you do, don’t buy anything other than these OEM hoses. You might save a few dollars with off-brand options, but it's not worth the risk if they don't perform as needed. I recently purchased off-brand hoses, and they were so thin that they collapsed when I connected them to the vacuum and skimmer (see photo). Zodiac hoses are strong and should last at least two years. I replace mine every other summer due to constant sun and heat exposure in South Florida.
