hansgrohe 88624000 Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet Hose, Chrome, Small

We found a leak under the kitchen sink so I had to replace the hose. There are cheaper hoses around but I have been stung before. So I went for the Hansgrohe replacement and it worked out well. I'm 85 so climbing under the sink is not my favourite activity and I was afraid that after I took the old hose out, the new hose would not slide in to replace it. But I need not have worried. It all went together like a charm.

This is exactly what was needed, super easy to self install

Purchased as a replacement for our ~7yo Costco-purchased Hansgrohe Allegro faucet, which had developed a pinhole leak just above the sprayer coupling as others have mentioned. The package I received Included the main hose as well as a replacement for the shorter hose (the one with the other half of the quick connect system). We chose not to replace that section at this time since it is not leaking and would have been difficult to reach regardless. Package also included several washer & nut pieces in a bag which I assume are for attaching that shorter hose, we did not use them. The tiny mesh strainer piece at the Sprayer end of the hose is also included. Ours did NOT include a sleeve to accommodate the larger hole in our weight - more on that later. Actual installation was fairy simple. I’d read the reviews here and knew what to expect, so the first issue of my SO being unable to separate the quick connect was solved easily when I attempted it - squeeze and hold the two buttons on the short hose, and at the same time pull the hose out while twisting back and forth. I then fully removed the old hose with the sprayer attached. The new one needs to be then fed back down the faucet - I immediately regretted not using the cord/rope trick when pulling out the old hose. The new hose first caught at the point where the faucet neck rotates. I was unable to get it past that point but SO managed it, only to have it get stuck at approx. counter level. We have a very deep sink which makes reaching the base of the faucet very difficult, and there are 3 other hoses that feed through a clover-shaped plastic piece there, so it is very much like threading a needle blind. Between SO and I we managed to unseat that plastic ring while moving the hose downward. SO attempted to slide it back up along all the hoses and into position but it ultimately snapped & we hope that does not cause an issue later on. You will be reusing your sprayer head as well as the matching nut that holds the sprayer in place on the hose. That nut needs to be in place in the correct orientation on the hose before you feed the hose through the faucet. The weight was the only hitch we had. The hose we received did NOT include or already have a sleeve installed, and this hose is significantly thinner than the old one. The weight will not hold onto the hose without some measure of padding. I solved this with a small piece of craft felt cut to the circumference of the hose and length of the weight. I do not know if there are other suitable options, this one works though! Even with all the sticking points we had this installed in under 30 min., and I have to say it works more smoothly than the old hose when in use (likely due to being slimmer).

This replaces the pull out hose for the hansgrohe focus mixer. It comes with another shorter hose which I didn’t use as that part was not damaged. It was difficult trying to get the hose through the tap as the passage was blocked by the 3 other hoses.. I removed the tap from the sink (but still leaving the other 3 hoses intact) and after some tries, managed to get this hose through the tap.. it’s working great now..

I have a Talis M in nickel that I bought at Costco at some point. (It was several years ago.) I had the same pinhole leak just above there the crimp is above the sprayer that I've seen in other reviews. I managed to find the manual for the faucet to confirm the model and replacement part number. This replacement kit has a slightly different short hose (from the faucet/water supply to where the long hose plugs in); mine has buttons on the side that you press in rather than a piece that slides over the lock pieces and clicks into place. However, the quick disconnect uses the same internal design, so I didn't bother to change that out. The long hose in the replacement kit is slightly different than the one I had, but it's mostly cosmetic. The old hose appeared to be the same plastic sheath, but with a strand of metal running through it. This new hose is the same outer dimension as my old one, so I didn't need to use tape to get the weight to stay in place. Installation was simple: Remove the weight (mine just unclips, though it sounds like some models are held together with a screw). Pull the quick disconnect end. Pull out the old hose and sprayer. Using a wrench (or carefully with channel lock pliers), hold at the indentations on the nut just above the sprayer and unscrew it. Slip the washer off of the old hose and on to the new one. Tighten the sprayer head on the end with the nut. Feed the new hose back through the hole. Plug the new hose in to the quick disconnect. Put the weight back onto the hose. If I had replaced the short section as well as the long, it would have taken a little bit longer and been less comfortable of a job due to access. However, since that section was fine in my case, replacing the long hose was a very quick and easy job that took maybe two minutes. Though this is a pricy part, it's a lot less expensive than replacing the whole faucet. It's also the name brand part, which provides an additional level of confidence in the quality.
