<p>A cleaning appliance of the cylinder type comprises a main body (100) and a hose (150) for carrying fluid flow between a wand (160) and the main body (100). Guide means (channel 300) are located on the main body (100) for guiding the hose (150) along a sinuous hose storage path around the periphery of the main body (100). Locating means (collar 350) aid a user in correctly fitting the hose (150) to the channel (300). Retaining means (311, 312) retain the hose at at least two intermediate points between the ends of the hose. This allows the hose (150) to have a sufficiently large bending radius at each end (151, 168).</p> |
