> 3 daySupposed 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.

> 3 dayVery thick, as stated. A good thing I am sure, but also very stiff. The end connections were tight with no leakage, but very difficult to connect/disconnect. We had to use pliers, and it took a great amount of time to connect and disconnect from water source. I am sure it will get broken in, but my husband named it (and I cant type in that name!) :0. I am thinking coconut oil might help around the metal fitting lip, away from water flow. Anyone e else have this issue? Did it improve with use?

> 3 dayWish the female end had a rubber grip end on it. The stainless steel nut is sometimes hard to remove from the hose bib when your hands are wet. The nice thing about this hose is that there is no rubber taste from the water.

> 3 dayThis house is not anti kink or even kink resistant as advertised. As a matter of fact it is worse than its cheaper white one of the same brand. I did not return it as I need more that one hose a some parks we go to. To sume it up, buy the cheaper white hose and save some bucks.

Greater than one weekThis hose never kinks. Heavy duty hose. Better than those cheap white hoses. A lot of people at our marina ask me where I got it. Told them amazon. Worth the money

> 3 dayWe have used these hoses for a couple of years and it is an excellent RV drinking water hose. That is, until you try to use it in colder weather. I was rolling it up on a cold morning a few weeks ago and it kinked in a couple of places. The kinks are permanent, and I expect the material to fail soon as it repeatedly bends in exactly the same places. Update: We have now had one of these hoses lying in the Florida sun for two years. The outer blue shell has suffered UV damage and is cracking off. No leaks. The chemical taste has become more pronounced. We replaced it today with another of the same because we felt it delivered good value.
