The electrical cord needs to have an L shaped plug for the outlet. (it needs to come out of the plug and the cord immediately go down)  My outlet is in a box and the cord does not allow me to close the door to the box.  The drain hose was 4 inches too short to reach the drain line on the wall.  It would have helped to have longer water lines also and it would be nice for those to also be L shaped.  We are limited in space in our laundry room.  The washer itself works well.
