Certified Appliance Accessories Washing Machine Hose, Hot or Cold Water Supply Line, 5 Feet, PVC Core with Premium Braided Stainless Steel…

I purchased two of these hoses to replace two (still good) rubber hoses on my nine year old "Kenmore" washer. As I purchased these from "Amazon", they are listed and sold as ONE hose each. If you wish to replace both the hot and cold water hoses on a washing machine, be sure to order TWO of these hoses. Because these are stainless steel braided (clad) hoses, they should be far safer from bursting for far longer than plain rubber hoses. I have seen the water damage from burst rubber hoses on washing machines and it is not a pretty sight.I priced these same hoses at my local "big box" home stores and these are far cheaper for the same listed specifications so I decided to give these a try. Despite some other reviews, I had absolutely no trouble at all installing these two hoses. I found them to be very flexible and they both came with rubber washers installed in both ends of the two hoses. I am rather "handy" so I installed them myself. They will fit standard water valves and standard (as they are on my "Kenmore" washer) water input spigots. I installed and tightened them by hand and then gave each end an extra quarter turn with channel lock (pump) pliers. I have had NO leaks or drips since install or to now, a month later.I have only had these hoses installed for one month so it is far to early to know how long they may last. In my experience with being a "handy man", these hoses seem to be of very high quality for the price. They seem to be of the very same quality as the ones I saw at the "big box" stores that were priced a lot higher than these. These two hoses that I received from "Amazon" are made in China but so was every other hose of this type I saw anywhere. I even asked a plumber friend of mine about "American Made" hoses and he laughed and said "Good luck finding any of these made in America". By the way, this same plumber friend thought these looked to be a great buy too.Again, it's too early to know how long they may last but these seem to be very good in my opinion and I especially liked the price. So, as I continue to hope they will last, I would recommend them.UPDATE: I'm still very pleased with these hoses. It is now June 6th, 2017 and I have now had these hoses installed for one year and 9 months. These hoses could of course fail at any time but I'm convinced these hoses are far safer and will probably last a LOT longer than the two rubber hoses they replaced.

Easy to hook up to my washing machine, and no leaks. Perfect solution for my problem. Used it for a lifeplus portable washer that only had a hook up for bath or kitchen faucet. Thanks for a good product.

Solid product! Imagine the horror on my face when my husband told me that the hot water hose on our washer had split. We have a six-month-old baby and what seems to be an endless amount of laundry. After shopping around, I purchased two of these hoses and had my husband install them for both the hot and cold water. In less than two days (the time it took for shipping), we were back to using our washing machine and washing the baby's clothes.As for installation, it was pretty simple. My husband turned off the water, took off the old hoses and put the new ones on. The quality seems a lot more durable than the ones that came with our LG front loader. For the price paid, I would definitely purchase these again, but I'm hoping that we won't have to for a long time!

Good length and it appears to be rather solid in construction.Time will tell, in regards to durability.Inner Diameter is smaller than the rubber hoses it replaced, so filling the washer takes a bit longer.If you have hard water and don't use a softener, I would recommend you clean the threads where the screw on hose connection mates to, just to make sure it is a solid seal and there are no leaks.There is NO need to gorilla torque these to either the washer or the water supply. Doing so could cause major damage. Get it snug with your hands and then give it a little more with tape covered pliers. It should not leak.

Smart

I bought this to replace the cheap plastic house that came with my portable washer and leaked. This arrived quickly and was very easy to install. It works perfectly so far. I can't speak for durability as I just got it. If I don't update then it must be fine! Lol.

I used to hook an outside faucet to another male faucet. flexibility and appearance are excellent , doe not leak at the connections

Replacement hose. Good product.
