Anyone doesn't like their silicon vacuum hoses?

A while back I replaced all vacuum hoses with silicon ones. At the beginning they look great but...a month later I found they are not as elastic as rubber. Once stretched they stay that way and as a result does a poor job sealing.
So I am planning to go back to rubber hoses. I tried to buy some 'ECO' hoses from the local saab dealer, but they told me they are now using generic hoses for all works. Anyone knows where can those ECO hoses be found? Perhaps Volvo or BMW dealer?
