Portable Washer supply and drain hookup

- In this video I discuss some alternatives to hooking up a portable washer to a water supply line. I also suggest how to secure the drain line so that it doesn't come loose during the drain cycle. These tips may apply to other models and brands of washers.
Here is my video of the initial unboxing and setup of our magic chef portable washer:

Why do you detach the hose from the washer? Can't you just leave that end connected and put the other ends inside the tub? The lid would stay partially open but less chance of mold forming if air can dry out the inside of the tub.
I need that fawcet adapter thingy
If you can find the Velcro one-wrap thin ties (usually at home improvement stores on online), you can also use that to 'tie' the drain hose to the supply line as well. I I've been doing that for years and it works great, enabling the Velcro tie to stay wrapped around the drain hose for storage. I also found that it's easier to use a shower adaptor on the sink (if you can, usually kitchen sinks and shower heads work with the adaptor) to reduce the amount of pressure you have when taking down your washer set up, due to the larger opening. Lastly, I love the hose elbow adaptor idea - I think you could even leave it attached to the washer (if you had space in your storage spot) and let the inlet hose end stay inside the washer, with the lid open to dry out and keep the washer drum from smelling.
Why would you keep disconnecting the hose end that's attached to the machine? Leave it on and put that other end in the washer tub. Over use of that plastic inlet will strip it. Just leave it on for your next wash day.
Why don't you just leave the hose connected to the machine?
Why would you need to disconnect the water supply line at the washer end? Why not just leave that end attached? Then you can just wheel away the washer and it’ll be all set up for next time except for the quick-connect end to the sink faucet.
I’m so happy you made this video. My portable machine didn’t come with instructions🤨😕 so I was confused what to do.😃
Afkaa
I put it in my bathtub. It makes life much easier IMO 😂
What kind of elbow you brought?
What is the size of the elbow?
Hey Lawrence👋🏼 I appreciate your videos. I've used my washer 5 times and I'm extremely cautious when loading it. I've only washed delicates and light weight items, yet when spinning it makes a horrible noise and rattles. Is your washer pretty quiet? I think I'm going to have to return mine?
I just found your web site and I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this video. I followed what you did and laundry is no longer a visit to the laundry mat unless is for my comforter! 💕😊🎈👏🏻👍🏻
i have old sink atachment can you help me about that 😢
I think my kitchen faucet thing is welded on. What can I do?
Very smart💯✅ Tip:keep your extra 🧻 wrapped in plastic until use :) +Excellent grip to remove and rebook, so no wear and tear on hose-- these are not strong, no ends, avoids replacing + leaks✅
Can u tell mr😅 h😅o
How do you replace the drain hose?
I took a look at how it attaches and it looks fairly simple to replace, it's simple held on with a spring hose clamp, but u would need to find the correct replacement hose because if the replacement doesn't fit correctly, it could leak which would be really bad. Also when u go to take off the old drain hose I think any residual water in the washer will leak out. Maybe call around to ur local appliance parts store, I use coast appliance but that is in San Diego. Have the model number of ur washer handy and they should be able to look up the parts for it.
Great video and well thought solutions. Thanks.
Thank you for making this video. I didn't know how to keep the drain hose from flipping out of the sink until I watched your video. Thank you again. Please keep making good videos such as these.
Please help me with my washer. I live in an apartment and they change all the faucet so we cannot hook up our washer on our own. My only hopes is the water line to the toilet, where bidet hooks up. What do I need to buy to make the connections possible?
Important video, thanks.
I just got a portable washer and the water isn't traveling through the filler hose for some reason, like there's a blockage or something in the hose itself, but there's not - water will go through the hose OUT, but not IN.
You are funny. Thanks for that and the good advice too. 😉
Awesome video, great advice, short and to the point!!!!🙏❤️
Thank you so much for your thoroughness!!!
Where did you get that from the elbows that's the exact type of hook up I need for my washer
I bought mine off EBAY, but Walmart Online sells them as well.
you are a genius, thank you
Thank you
Makes me appreciate my washer in the basement that once the water was hooked up I never had to touch it again.
Until the hoses freeze on your pipes for years..and you need a plumber :)
Can you show us how you attached it to the faucet... i think i have the same faucet & i can’t seem to get that piece off to attach the adapter.
Here is the video of how I attached the adapter and hose: ruclips.net/video/11nHEMwuD_8/видео.html
What’s the stuff attached to faucet spout?
It's an adapter that came with the washer that allows u 2 hook a hose up 2 a faucet
MamaHuhuDIY I see. thank you. 😊
