Besides Drfife, is everyone disparaging the Camco product...or some other Walmart hose? Should I consider upgrading?
No, I bought my Camco drinking water hose from Walmart and I am happy with it.

Ok, now if you want a really good hose that doesn't give off the plasticky taste after your hose has been in the sun, get what's called a bronze line hose. Made by Valterra. It is rated for high psi and I've been using the same hose for 20 years with our trailers. The color of the hose is....you guessed it bronze. I bought a 15 ft hose and a 6 foot hose. The combo has worked well for me. Highly recommend it. I've been told that they use this hose often for trailer park applications. It's easy to roll up as well.

Murphie, I had completely forgotten about the trailer house hoses. They are tough and will take a lot of pressure.
