Interesting. Mine had a short hose which plugged into the base OR
plugged into an additional extension for cleaning the stairs etc. It
was this extension which I hacked and extended - put about 12 feet on
it - I imagine your ceilings can't be that much higher or you couldn't
reach at all at present.

Right. But storing this long hose would be a pain compared to a small hand
held device.
