I purchased mine, accordion plastic one, and it snapped the first time I used it. A friend of mine was using sections of rain gutter to hold his sewer hose. I purchased some rain gutter at Lowe's that has even sides so that there is no lip to attach it to the roof. I then sectioned the original plastic sewer hose holder to support the rain gutter. The rain gutters nest inside each other and I slide them to length. No more sewer hose forming a water trap as well.
