Has anyone had any experience with the Miflex hoses? Are they worth the extra $$ or are they just an average hose with a pretty braided sleeve?

No, they are very different, much more flexible, and the consensus is that people like them enough to put them on all their gear after trying one

Love mine. wish i could replace my ti swivel on my TX-1 would one on that as well. Worth it
I am very keen on mine. They are:
- lighter
- stronger
- more flexible (regulator packs up smaller for travel without inflexible rubber hoses)
- more flexible II (better accommodates wonky gear configurations)
They are more expensive, but in the global scheme of things I see it as good added value.

Seeing more and more folks with Miflex hoses everyday. On a boat yesterday and I think that 6 out of 8 divers had them.
See the bottom of this page for my recent review after switching over to Miflex:

Just saw the HP version the other day. Pretty slick. Hose is about as wide as a pencil. Will be swapping my SPG to one of these!

Do any of you dive a 7 foot hose for a primary? the flexibility looks good for routing, but Does the MiFlex braiding irritate your neck?
Thanks...

Money well spent!
I've had no problems with neck irritation from the 7' hose. The new HP hoses are nice too.
No problem here, though most of my diving is in a 7mm hood!
But seriously, did 57 dives in Truk and another 25 in the Red Sea recently without a hood and didn't notice any kind of irritation. You do sort of notice it's there a bit more than a regular hose, but not in any particularly annoying way.

I really like the miflex hoses. They route easy and coil very nicely for storage. I do not have the HP miflex yet though
