My fear was originating from a similar concern many here have expressed. I needed to be able to easily slide my tube into this hose, and didn't want to need to force it. That's always something I try to avoid, but I digress. When the time came, I realized my stomach cramp triggering terror fear was all for naught, these hose are very easy to work with, and it's obvious, at least for my vacuum (pictured cause chicks dig it) that these hose were manufactured for at least this model (Eureka 4870).
The final test, one I had emotionally prepared for with Thaddeus, my Life Coach, was at hand. Sure, the house cooperated if I slipped my pipe into the back end, but I was certain any attempt to strap on an accessory tool to the hose's front home would be met with protest. But alas, the accessories all strapped on and proved a tight seal with almost no obvious suction loss where it really counts most.
If your vacuum is a Eureka 4870 and presents with a vivid, almost sassy shade of yellow, and always makes sure you understand your place in the pecking order (The decal which indicates that the vacuum is in fact "The Boss") and based on its extraordinarily high level on of awesome, is essentially the last vacuum you'll enter need to buy, I absolutely, without a question in my mind, and with an infinitely high level of analytic confidence, guarantee this hose will work. If it doesn't, please see Ed.

Easy to install, this hose works great with THEBOSS. In fact, I'm ordering another one for my Eureka PET LOVER -- as they use the same hose.
Backstory
--------------------------
I purchased a new Eureka vac. The Eureka MyVac Reach Allergy w/ Airspeed Technology, Bagged , and I have to say that I'm fairly disappointed with the quality. You can't turn off, for example, the spinner. There are other design features that are nice, however for wood floors I like turning off the spinner.
The other thing I like is having a vac on each floor. It's sort of wasteful but I've gotten to an age where I can see that in the future it could definitely be a problem hauling a heavy vacuum cleaner up and down the stairs. So I indulge myself to keep from future falls.
So... I decided I wanted to keep my old vacs. Really they work fine, I was only unhappy with having to tape and re-duct-tape the hoses. This is a better solution than buying a new vac.
SUMMARY
If your old Eureka Vacs still work don't waste money buying a new machine that won't be a nice. Buy a new hose. I purchased one for MYBOSS and am now waiting on a new hose for my PET-LOVER vac.
Would buy again.
The hose length and fitment are identical to the original. However, the original hose was slightly opaque and this replacement is more of a clear plastic. Functionally, this makes no difference.
Replacing the original hose took less than 5 minutes. For my particular model, I needed to unscrew two torx screws using a T20 sized bit to be able to remove the original hose. I'm not sure if all the variations of the 4870 use the same size screw, but I imagine they do.
In summary, my 5 star rating is based on 1. The fact that it fits and functions like the original, and 2. Pricing & delivery. I've uploaded a picture to show the original and replacement hoses.
