Did not add a taste or odor, and the the water flows. Success.

2 year review: Ive used this hose for filling my RV water tank and hooking up the city connection in parks. I got the 25ft version but wish I had bought the 35 or 50 as in most situations this one is just long enough but sometimes too short to fill. The host itself has held up fantastically. No kinks, no holes, the connections still look like the day I bought it. The only thing I didnt like is the strain relief springs dont stay on the ends.

For about a year, I have been carrying two 50-foot hoses and one 10-foot hose in my motorhome for connecting to campground water supplies. I often found that the 10-foot hose would be too short, yet one of my 50-foot hoses would be much too long. I needed a good in-between length potable water hose that would coil easily but did not kink. This one fits my needs perfectly. My experience has shown that most campgrounds have the water outlet within 25-feet of the water connector on my coach, therefore this hose length is the one that I now use most often. The coiled metal strain reliefs at each end of the hose prevent the hose from pinching at the fittings. Compared with my other drinking water hoses, this one is made of thicker material, making it nearly impossible to kink accidentally. The thickness also causes the hose to resist being uncoiled when Im trying to straighten it in cold weather. Nonetheless, it easily coils back into a neat bundle for easy storage. Even when I dont use a water filter, this hose does not adversely affect the taste of the water that flows through it.

I bought this hose to use for the fresh water connection to my travel trailer. I got the blue just to be different from folks who buy white. The hose is really well made. I doubt it will ever fail me...especially since I have a pressure reducer that I put between it and the RV park supply hose bib. However, the hose is pretty stiff. It is not so bad during hot weather, but during our mild Florida winters, it is difficult to roll up enough to stash in a plastic container for storage under the trailer. I have had to bring it inside my house when I returned from a trip and let it warm up so that I could coil it properly for storage.

Supposed to be a drinking water safe hose, but the city water had a terrible chemical odor and taste within 3-4 weeks in the Calif sun if the water has been in the hose for even an hour or so. And thats even with a brand new CAMCO water filter following the hose!! In order to get rid of the taste/odor, had to run the water for several minutes. In my opinion, if you can smell and taste chemicals, I dont believe its safe to drink that water! In the last several years that Ive been using various brands of drinking water hoses, most will last at least 6-12 months before leaving bad chem smell/taste. This one didnt last 4 weeks! Very dissatisfied and returned.

Seams very durable along with it being very easy to hook up. Thank you!

Replaced a 5 year old identical hose because it became brittle with constant exposure to the sun. I put a section of fire hose over the end that is exposed to direct sunlight and it has been doing very well holding up.I would definitely recommend, but if exposed to direct sunlight cover it up to make it last longer.

Super hose, the ends are really heavy duty, and easy to grip and attach and the tension relief spring is a nice added touch. The hose if very flexible, it didnt seem to have any coil memory even on the first use. I uncoiled it fully, laid it out straight and put some water pressure through it and it laid perfectly flat. I will buy this brand again if I need a longer hose or replacement, but it should last for many years.

Why was asked for its flavor? We it taste like a water hose. Please dont ask how I know what a hose taste like. Used to be in prison!

Perfect length for my needs, but the connection between the hose and the faucet drips even when the hose is running freely and theres no built up pressure. (Whereas usually with my old hose it only drips when the spray head is off but the water is on so there is pressure in the hose) It not a big deal because its just a slow drip, but still.
