💦 Valterra AquaFresh High Pressure Drinking Water Hose - RV Water Hose Hookup, 1/2" x 15', White Review

This hose does what a hose is supposed to do. But it's bulky, folds easily, and is difficult to open, roll, or do anything else with. Take Zero-G, it's much better. I use both hoses every day. If it weren't so wasteful I would have thrown this one away and bought a second weightless. Don't waste money on it.

I needed a 15ft hose for my trailer. When I took the hose and tried to connect the water it turned out to be too short. I measured the distance from the water inlet on my caravan to the water outlet on the campsite where I stayed. 15 feet would just about do it. When I measured the tubing it was only 10 feet 6 inches long.

This hose runs between my bib and the timer which means it's pressurized most of the time and resets daily while watering the plants for 10 minutes. I've had it plugged in for well over a year with no evidence of leaks, cracks, or bubbling "hernias," as if a pipe was stretched between the water supply and the timer. Very satisfied.

The female side of the hose coiled on the nozzle seemed pretty. On the male side, we couldn't screw it onto the braided lead without appreciable leakage. We've tried with and without tape and extra washers. We then tried another $10 RV tube from our local hardware store, which sealed with no leaks the first time with a simple hand tightening.

I always buy multiple hoses, two 10ft hoses and one 15ft hose. Then I connect the best combined hose that goes from the water source to the dwelling house. Keeps my camp tidy and why on hot days I need the sun to heat the water in the hose and wait for the water to cool before starting it. It just makes more sense to put everything you need together than 30 feet of hose strewn around your campsite. At most campgrounds you will be using 15 foot tents anyway.
