Product review (5 stars): Plenty of room now
Great product.  It is amazing how much space you are able to gain by replacing the conventional straight hose with this one. My new LG washer had conventional (straight) hoses supplied with it.  The Sears installation/delivery person looked over my laundry room and claimed there is no way the washing machine would fit into the designated space.  His recommendation was to return the machine. I declined.  I found this hose via Google search.  Now the washer fits easily. Plenty of room.
