Camco TastePURE 25-Foot Premium Drinking Water Hose | Features a No-Kink Heavy-Duty Design with Machined Fittings for Extra Strength, 5/8” ID, and is Lead-Free, BPA-Free, and Phthalate-Free (22833)

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!

Its a good hose and durable the only downside is it is very stiff in cool conditions so take that into consideration for storage.

This is a great hose with no rubber or vinyl taste to the water. I use it on my travel trailer and bought a second one for my house. The hose connections are cast metal, and not stamped. So they are really sturdy. One thing that you can run into is that the cast hose female connection is pretty deep, so you may have some instances where you cannot get the hose to seal on a spigot. Typically just adding a second rubber washer inside the hose connection fixes this problem. I keep a hand full of rubber washers in our trailer to make sure they are always there for doubling up or replacing one that breaks. The only reason I have not given it 5 stars is that I have not really tested out how well it works on continued use under pressure and exposed to the elements. I have been using in our trailer on many trips for a year so far with no problems.

This is the second one weve had. The first one remains in good condition after multiple years outdoors. Weve used it for moving both potable water and maple sap (pre-product for syrup). No aftertaste. Stays clean inside. Resists sunlight well. Ends are durable. Never had any problems with kinking, flattening or leaks. Only challenge was that when its new, it can be hard to unroll until it gets good and warm the first time. This time, well run hot water through it for a few minutes and stretch it once. I expect that will suffice. Well buy another one when the time comes.

Ive had this hose for over 4 years now and have used it many times in the travel trailer. I also have the 10 version to use when the trailer is much closer to the water outlet at campgrounds. I wish I could use the 10 footer all the time, but many times I need to get the 25 hose out, which drives me nuts. Its a real pain to put back in the storage bin if its slightly cold out as it wont coil up neatly and I have to fling it all around to get it to curve correctly so it goes in the bin. It has several kinks in it that wont go away. So, yeah, not anti-kink in my opinion and its been that way ever since I got it. (Didnt realize I hadnt reviewed it until I was searching my orders for another hose I purchased a few years ago.) Im about ready to toss it as I just ordered another 10 footer and will connect the two together when I need to. The good thing about the hose - knock wood, its never leaked or split in the years of periodic usage. But, yeah, anti-kink is a lie. Cant really address the hooking issue as I have it hooked to a Hose-Grip from J Wright Concepts, which is wonderful and a device every camper needs!

This is my primary fresh water hose for our RV. We are full time RV so this hose is used constantly. It has no taste, can take being under pressure for at least a full year and it is resistant to kinking. It has high quality fittings that show no sign of wear or corrosion. I didnt give it 5 stars because it is stiff and pretty hard to wind up for storage.

The connections are machined smooth which makes it difficult to tighten or loosen. The hose also kinks easily

I’ve use this brand of hose for hooking up to drinking water while camping. I’ve had good wearability and no problems with them other than aging out after 25 years. I recommend them.

Good hose ... as described

This is a nice RV hose. The fittings are heavy duty and high quality. Most other fresh water hoses have cheap fittings, which lead to leaks, extra work and frustration. The hose is made out of a harder plastic, which seems to like being unrolled without twisting. Ive had it hooked up to city water for years now without issue. That said, if you want to roll and unroll it often, it may be a source of frustration. The hose is nice and pliable when left in the sun and warm, but if its full of water and cold, it will stubbornly hold its shape and be extremely difficult to roll and unroll.
