00:00You know that annoying moment when you pull the washer out and realize the water line is kinked,
00:04cracked, or the fitting is just too stubborn to reach? I've been there, elbow deep behind
00:09an appliance more times than I'd like to admit. That's why I went hunting. These are the top 5
00:15washer inlet hoses with 90-degree elbows, and the prices? Almost embarrassingly cheap.
00:22Starting at number 1, this is the one I'd grab first. It's a stainless steel-braided
00:28flexible hose with a 90-degree bend elbow, and you can pick the length from 40 all the way up
00:32to 200
00:33centimeters, so you can match it to whatever your hookup actually needs. The braid is the real star
00:39here, it resists kinking and won't split when you bend it around a corner. It's a household water
00:44heater, toilet, or washer job, and at 5 bucks with nearly 5,000 sold, it's an easy yes.
00:51Number 2 is a bit of a curveball, but stick with me. This is a 2-meter washing machine draining
00:56hose,
00:57a plastic tube extension that gives you a lot more slack for routing the drain line.
01:01It also works for air conditioner condensate or even a kitchen faucet, so it's more versatile than
01:06it sounds. It's around 539, 5 stars, and just as many sales. Pair it with the elbow inlet hose and
01:14you've got a full hookup done right. Number 3 is the one people forget they need until something goes
01:20wrong. This is a hose water filter with a screen, fitting anywhere from 8 to 24 millimeters,
01:26and it catches sand, rust flecks, and sediment before it reaches your valve or the washer's fill
01:31valve. Cheap insurance at $359,000 sold, and honestly the cheapest fix you'll ever make.
01:38Now the dedicated elbow hoses. This listing is a washing machine and dishwasher inlet pipe with a
01:44built-in 90-degree bend, so it tucks in tight behind the appliance instead of jutting straight out
01:48and blocking the door. It's $767, rated 4.8, and it solves exactly the clearance problem most people
01:56are searching for at 2 in the morning. And this fifth one is the same style of elbow inlet hose,
02:01same 90-degree bend, same washer and dishwasher fit, just a couple dollars higher at $889.
02:07Honestly, for the price difference I wouldn't stress, but buy this one if the other is sold out,
02:12or grab a two-pack so you've got a spare for the dishwasher too.
02:15Same rating, same thousands of units moving.
02:19Alright, that's the list. All the links are down in the description,
