The hose being unavailable is an incorrect statement. I have ordered them from Miele as recently as this morning.

Thanks for the link.

I posted the wrong link. But, since too much time has passed to edit my post, go ahead and read the article on the link. It's very worth reading.

What was the part number for the hose then, please? I called around to quite a few Miele dealers, including one in New York City, who did indeed tell me it had been discontinued. Even if I don't choose to run out & buy one, it might be helpful to post the part number here, in case anyone else does want to buy the hose for their cleaner & runs into the same brick wall I did.

I read the article. Couldn't make head nor tail of it.

I was told by the Territory Manager for St. Louis, as well as Andy Weter, that this indeed still exists and is available for order. BTW, its not being available woudl be a deal-breaker for me, as well. They don't advertise it well, and I also had thought it had been discontinued, but it's still around. I'll report back when I actually get the one I ordered yesterday.
