I have both the Rockler hose and this Powertec hose:

I use the Powertec more frequently since it is lighter and has no tendency to pull back on me.
I do use the Rockler hose occasionally. But it is essential to rig up a suspension loop from the ceiling. I fastened a velcro strap to the ceiling above my sanding area, and then I run the Rockler hose through the looped velcro strap, getting it to just the right height so that when the hose is attached to the sander, the sander will just sit flat on the center of the surface being sanded.
Always on the lookout for something better, I spotted this on amazon. I may order it:
