Like downtheroad, we also bought the 50' hose. we got it because of it's light weight, as DW doesn't want to haul around the heavier garden hose.
As mentioned, it's not for potable water...not to be use for drinking!
As far as a spare hose to use to rinse off the RV or sewer line, I guess it would be fine. But, you can buy regular hoses for a lot less money, and there is less chance of having problems with the fittings.
As for the fittings, they are plastic, and probably won't take much abuse, but if you are careful, you should be fine.....but again, it would probably depend on just how lucky you get when you buy it. We have already had the plastic fitting come apart, but it wasn't under pressure at the time, and I just screwed it back together.
We got ours at Bed, Bath, & Beyond, and use one of the discount coupons that gave us 20% off the $19.99 price, so it was a pretty good deal.
