Titan, 4 years and going. When we full times I took along a section of house gutter and covered my hose when we at a location for extended periods. I saw several hoses destroyed by birds pecking holes in them. Safe travels

Enjoy the journey

I use a macerator (i.e., Sewer Solution), but I also have a RhinoFlex in the bumper as a backup or if I'm in a hurry. I can recommend both.

I bought one of these and have never used it. So it just sits in the basement as a spare. Five years and we are still using the original hose.

I use the Rhinoflex also. I have 2 - 10ft. and 1 - 5ft. and use the shortest possible run when I set up. Only had one problem with one hose in 7 years. Other than that I've had no problems with any of the other hoses or connections.

Good to hear all the positive reviews for Rhino-Flex. Does the Rhino-Flex fit inside a standard 4x4-in bumper?

They all “stink”, “but” I’ve found spraying the seals with lube helps them not leak. Just don’t use anything that will degrade rubber.

Sorry couldn’t resist “stink” and “but”! Lol

Mine does — you have to swivel the fittings just right to slide it in. Clear elbow goes in a tote in the cargo hold.

I am not concerned about fitting in the 4” square tube bumper. Thanks for all the replies! It’s Rhinoflex for me now.

Thought I would go to the forum, because I feel like you people know, and I trust you. Thanks.
I user the rhino brand and have been using for 5 years with no problems . It even collapses for easy storage

Rhinoflex. My normally thrifty wife questioned the expense until I explained if we bought the cheap one she would need to stand next to it when we dumped. Lol

X2

At first I thought it wouldn't fit which was a bummer, then I looked closer and noticed the twist.

The clear elbow adds a bit of theater to the event. Lol

One thing we learned is that you don't want to "stretch" your sewer hoses. Two reasons: #1 - it weakens them (exposing the thinnest part of them to the elements); and #2 - you want the hose to be as "bumpy" of a ride as possible for what's traveling through it. The bumps create waves which helps everything wash through.

When I said I was not concerned about not fitting in the 4” square tube bumper, is because I have a 5” square tube holder to keep it in, does not go inside the trailer.

PS...and, when storing your RV, you can 'double book' the rain gutter as a cover for your outside awning, thus protecting the top from sun damage (as in TX, AZ, etc)...
