Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for appliances made for 1 lb. propane cylinders, so it is not a universal hose for every propane setup.
- At 8 ft., the hose adds reach, but that extra length may be more than needed for compact or close-coupled setups.
- Compatibility is specified for Buddy series models MH9BX, MH12HB, and MH18B, so fit should be confirmed before purchase.
- A fuel filter is highly recommended, which adds another component to the setup.
