Product review (5 stars): and I am much more comfortable that it won't break and flood us out than ...
I bought this hose to replace the water in hose on a Haier portable washing machine, after the rubber hose that came with it exploded and flooded the bathroom. It's a vast improvement - even my husband, who doesn't really notice minor household changes, commented that it was a "real upgrade." The rubber hose leaked when we used very hot tap water (it's scalding hot in our house), and this hose doesn't leak at all, even on the hottest temperatures. It's solidly made, and I am much more comfortable that it won't break and flood us out than I would be if I had purchased a manufacturer-provided replacement.
