Zero-G water hoses

[penguin149]

Looking at water hoses for next season and making my Christmas list. Thinking about getting a Zero-G hose but not sure which one.

Gray / Black "garden" hose says it's drinking water safe and it's 5/8"; more volume but more bulk to store
Gray Zero-G

Blue RV/Marine hose is 1/2"; less volume and see complaints that it says do not keep under pressure? Aren't all RV hoses under pressure when in use?!
Blue Zero-G

Which one is best for travel trailer use?

This is the one that I use, and it isn't under pressure because I use it to fill my tank.

I am almost saying this too much anymore, but why are people afraid to use their built in fresh water tank?

Good point.
I leave the house with 60 gallons of fresh water each trip and use the campsite hydrant and hose to refill fresh water tank.....we're all different animals.

Avoid the "zero G" version at home depot. The threads are plastic!!! I couldnt belive it. Never do this but used it on the job to wash some windows. Freakin thing caught an edge somewhere and popped. I felt responsible. Im also not rich so that 40 bucks was important to me. Returned it and the lady said she gets returns all the time.

I bought my mom a Zero G brand from lowes a couple years ago. Its still rockin. If going for that style of hose i would go to lowes instead of home d.

Are you filling a tank or going to leave it under pressure at a campground type of deal?

I use the grey/black in every application, around the house and RV.....best hose I've owned.
