This 4 ft. washer drain hose extension kit is used to extend the drain hose so the wash water can drain to a sink, tub, or drain hole. Due to its flexible design, the corrugated hose is virtually impossible to kink, especially when comparing it to rubber hoses. The Washer Drain Hose has a larger inside diameter that makes it less likely to plug.
Includes everything you need for easy installation
Fits all Whirlpool and Maytag washers
Does not fit all value brand top load washers
Includes (1) 4 ft. drain hose with one fitted end, (1) hose coupler and (2) clamps

The kit came exactly as described and pictured. There are no instructions at all, so I disconnected my drain hose from my washing machine (Whirlpool Model # WTW4850HW) and discovered an elbow where it connects to the machine (Note: the other end of the original drain hose has a rigid J-hook that cannot be removed without cutting the hose). So I called Whirlpool customer support who sent me a link to a video on how to install the extension kit. Problem is, the video assumes a straight original drain hose (i.e., no elbow). Being a perfectionist, I was prepared to cut the original drain hose, buy and install an additional 4" connector with clamps. That's when I discovered considerably cheaper extension hoses that would have worked just find (albeit still not solving the elbow issue). Despite my careful measurements and taking the pieces with me, the connector I bought didn't fit with the extension kit hose, so ultimately I decided I could live with the elbow being in the middle of the extended drain hose. It looks dumb, but as long as the elbow doesn't interfere with the drainage, I'm okay with it--see the picture.

Could not use at all. Hose was way too stiff. Would not bend to attach to drain. Returned to store for refund.

it was somewhat difficult getting both hoses seated fully in the connecting sleeve, but it seems to be working well with no leaks. would have just preferred to have option to buy 6 or 8 foot replacement hose and reduce risk of a leak at joint.

It is a basic drain hose extension. Able to attach to current washer hose. Nice and snug, no leaks. Took no more than 10 minutes
