NON-KINK WATER HOSE
I am in the market for a new non-kinking drinking water hose.
The one I have now I purchased from CW & as a non-kinking hose it's a joke. That's all it does is kink. Also, I've had to replace fittings on both ends because they leaked. CW says they won't stand behind their warranty because I changed the ends.
Anyway, what is a good brand of non-kinking hose to purchase & where? We very seldom, if ever, drink & cook with anything but bottled water. Should I just purchase a rubber hose & be done with it? What do others of you do?
Thanks for the help.

Also purchased mine from the water filter store. Have a number of lengths, all with quick disconnects, never had a kink or even close to one.

Another vote for the water filter store. Have hoses from them that are 5 years old and same as new. High quality.

Ours are called NeverKink - I don't know if they were the originators of these types of hoses or not. You can make them kink - but you really have to physically go out of your way to do it. During normal use, the name is 100% accurate. They also have a lifetime guarantee and were made....... in the USA!

Big Sky Jimmy,
I can't remember the brand of hose from CW, but I would not waste my money buying their products.

It took a while, but I finally found the order/receipt. I got two 25 foot hoses from PPL Motorhomes for 15.69 each. If you shop around, you might find them cheaper though.

Gator-Hyde here. You can order a 25' and get a 10' and 15'. The 3/4" is a bit stiff so I actually ordered the smaller diameter 5/8"
