Also another non-user. I see it as a waste of time and $$.
Only get them out when at a CG that requires them. Have 4-10' hoses and most of the time use two of them. Once in a while the CG sewer inlet is over 20' away and have used 40' a couple of times. We have 3 tanks and 2 outlets but just move the hose over to the other outlet. Two of the hoses are stashed away inside our TT in an out of the way place that gets little use.
When the tank(s) has emptied and the valve is closed, I walk the hose along the ground to empty the contents. Doesn't matter if the pipe slopes uphill either. Occasionally a CG inlet is too high and you can't get the hose to drain with a positive slope at all and a hose support won't help.
When done dumping, I attach the ends together and toss them in the back of the truck. Faster to set up at the next CG and after getting home I store them under our trailer. This gives a lot more storage space in the pass-through.
