(Back to the original subject of the sink drain hose and how I'd like to
re-route it so I can get more room in the cabinet).

The drain hose under our sink is black and has an o.d. of 1''. Since it
can't be bent sharply w/o kinking, some folk have used 90-degree elbows
to route the drain line out of the way.

GoWesty sells a kit with a drain hose that appears to have "Flexi-Straw"
construction at several points, which should allow it to be bent.

Has anyone used this, and how well does it work to get that stupid hose
out of the way?
