Product review (5 stars): No more leak - yay!
Bought two, both work, no drama.

A puddle was appearing around the wash machine. It looked like maybe, just maybe, the problem was one of the 20 year old water hoses. Bought these, replaced the old ones, no more leak.

That was an easy fix.

The over-all quality of these hoses is good. The braiding might not be necessary, but can't hurt - except that the these hoses are way more rigid than the ones they are replacing.

It would have been nice to have a blue hose and a red hose, but these one came at too good a price.
