Valterra A01-0187VP Flexible Tank Wand, Gray, 1 count

Works exactly like advertised

Most new RV tanks have a built in flush systems but older ones do not. You have to rinse from the toilet opening. Works well was able to bend it to flush towards the tank empty valve which pushed out a lot of debris. Works better then my old one. Would buy again hands down…..

So my black tank kept showing full for weeks and I finally decided to get something to clean it with. Almost got the Camco one, but in the end I ordered this one. It feels well made and even the tip seemed very snug and tight so perhaps they listened to others that lost the tips inside their tank. I still added a clamp on the end just in case even though it held up to the pressure without it. Super easy to use and it bent easily onto the tank. My only real issue is that it only has 3 holes to do the side spray. It could use a couple more and I'm sure it would be more effective. As is, it worked, but it felt I had to twist it back and forth way more than needed if it had more side holes. I will probably take my smallest drill bit and make a couple extra for the next wash. After a few minutes of washing and twisting and checking the light, I finally got what must have been stuck on the sensor. Now my tank is back down to green lights. Woohoo.

Puts out a good stream of water all around.

Good product

The item was not as powerful as I expected.

Great buy

I bought this because my black tank does not drain well, partly because I believe the gate valve does not close properly. Blame Heartland and Camping World for that one. I tried a couple other wands like this one, but they did not work. Mainly because the full length was not flexible. One item I tried was the  Camco 40074 Flexible Swivel Stik with Shutoff Valve , the flexible hose was not long enough for my setup. It does have a spinning end, which the Valterra A01-0187V does not.I didn't bother with trying to run this from my bathroom faucet, that just wouldn't be enough water pressure. I ran a garden hose in through my bedroom window. Stick this wand down the toilet and try to listen for when the sound changes, then you'll know the end is in the black tank. It sprays water quite well, but does not rotate automatically as previously mentioned about another product. At first I just let the water run and went outside to see how well it was working. The water was not clear, but that is a good thing. Once I knew it was working, I let it run for a while then went back in the bathroom and ran the hose deeper into the tank then pulled back out a few feet and at the same time, manually rotating the hose for better coverage in the tank. Once I thought I did enough cleaning and the sensor showed the black tank empty, I pulled the hose out, making sure to rinse on the way out of the toilet.Oddly enough, my black tank shows 2/3 full only a couple days later. Is it 2/3 full? I doubt it. Can I prove it? No, I don't have a camera in the tank nor do I want to look inside. Are the sensors messed up? Probably. Eventually I plan to remove the tanks and directly plumb to the sewage pipe, but that is in the future.I also took the advice of another review and added a hose clamp to the end of mine, preventing the end from flying off and becoming stuck in the black tank. I definitely do not want to go fishing for that little piece on a Saturday.Overall, this works well to clean out your black tank, you just have to rotate the hose manually from the bathroom to really clean out the tank. Definitely recommended for cleaning out your tank.

This tool really helped fix the dirty problem I had with my 5th wheel. After years of use our 5th wheel toilet had its first plugged up problem. I wasn’t sure what to do and Internet searches were all over the place with options. I took a chance and order this tool from Amazon. Shipping was next day and I put the tool to work as soon as I received it. It took about 5 minutes to run a hose from the outside tap into the bathroom of our 5th wheel, 15 seconds to attach the tool, then about 2 minutes to completely unblock and clean out the toilet. This tool was easy to use and will store away in our 5th wheel until it’s needed again. Needless to say I highly recommend this tool if you are having issues in your RV toilet.

Great product with powerful multi jet nozzles to quickly and easily clean and flush RV holding tank lines and sensors. Worked perfectly as intended the first time around.

Works as advertised. You do need more pressure than the camper pump provides.

Very flexible

Love these little poop sticks definitely take the toilet paper off the sensors…
