A release mechanism for use with vacuum cleaning appliances having a pipe and hose arrangement, where the pipe is slidably mounted inside the hose. The release mechanism comprises an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve and actuating buttons. The inner sleeve couples the pipe to the hose. By using the actuating buttons, the inner sleeve is operational in a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the pipe can slide inside the hose, but it cannot be removed or detached from the hose. In the open position, the pipe can be removed or detached from the hose. The outer sleeve secures the release mechanism to the hose and houses the inner sleeve and actuating buttons.
