Camco RhinoFLEX Translucent Frustration Free 39742 Reviews Summary

Durability and Reliability

Pros:

• "These hoses do not leak and are easy to use."
• "Quality good enough to last. Fitting are quality and make a good seal."
• "This sewer hose kit is everything you really need to empty your holding tanks."
• "This hose is a good length, can expand and was easy to hook up to my rv and the honey pot hole."
• "The collapsible hose is made with a thick vinyl. You can stretch it to the length you need and when you collapse it it stays collapsed."
• "The connections are so large, that they won't fit through the openings in my Winnebago."
• "The bayonet ends are of top quality and the hose is connected into the bayonet with a good seal."
• "The hose is durable, has heavy duty fittings, and comes with a see through elbow."

Cons:

• "It’s advertised as “tough” but they started leaking within the first couple weeks and just got progressively worse."
• "This hose set is well made, seems durable, and is priced well. I don't think it'll spring a leak anytime soon, unlike the last Camco hose that I purchased."
• "The product is very durable but be prepared for raw sewage to leak from the swivel through no fault of your own."
• "Failed in six months. Split about 8 inches from where it hooks to the RV."
• "One section of this hose had a hole in the hose, not the connection, the first time I used it."
• "This hose has leaked from its first use at the connections on both ends, where the orange piece meets the brown hose."
• "The very first time I used this hose (while pumping sewage from the RV) the connector came off one side of the hose."
• "I purchased 1 and within 2 months it started splitting."

Ease of Use and Installation

Pros:

• "Easy to hook up, nice tight fittings that don't leak."
• "The connectors, and plugs work great. I operate an Arctic Fox 990 TC."
• "Everything fits perfect except the 4 in1 swivel orange elbow part that goes to the sewer pipe fitting that is threaded in ground."
• "These are great! They lock together easily and securely and we used them with confidence."
• "It assembles easily and I like the clear 90° end attachment that let's you see the flow and when it's finished dumping and flusing."
• "Very easy to connect to the Rv and to the sewer connector. Like that it has the clear elbow to see if everything has come out."
• "This hose is heavier gauge than the red kind I owned before. I like the covers for the ends to keep everything neat inside my storage bin."
• "I've been using RV sewer lines for nearly 20 years, and this blows every other product I’ve used away!"

Cons:

• "Can’t hook up elbow, elbow comes with Bayonet-Style Swivel Fittings on both ends. Kinda a waste when you can’t use what you buy."
• "One pipe's fitting/end came broken. The other one got stuck on the trailer's pipe forever, until thank God someone had the little orange removal tool."
• "Unfortunately there was a hole in the tube using it for the first time on a family vacation. We had to borrow another hose to dump."
• "The quality of Camco's Rhino FLEX Sewer hose is unmatched. My only complaint is that both lines don't fit in my camper's sewer line storage tube by like 2 inches."
• "I don’t like the sewer connection permanently attached to the hose, I would prefer the hose to have a female & male connection since my camper has 2 sewer connections and needs various lengths of hose to connect to the sewer pipes."
• "On the road now using this hose. After several setups and takedowns I am happy with how this thing performs."
• "It’s a stinky slinky. Not unlike other stinky slinky’s but I’m not a fan of how, for lack of a better explanation, pops in and out."
• "This is well made. I am sure its great value. I take 1 star off because they claim 'allows you to store the hose in 4 inches square bumpers' This is NOT true."
