Whatever you do get new hoses for the wash machine. A long time ago my nephews hose to the wash machine exploded while they were on vacation. Flooded the whole house.

Good advice. It is an easy replacement.

We have decided. It turns out this particular machine is about 30 years old, or maybe even 40. My parents bought it. So, the nephew wants to sell it for scrap. We’ll install his until he moves out, THEN, we’ll bring ours which has been in storage in the basement for 20 years or so up from the basement.

Good grief, my family is silly. What happened was, parents had original, newly dead, machine installed. Then, when Mom died, Dad moved to his mom’s house when she died. He left his machines. Meanwhile, we went on the mission field, but knew we needed the machines when we returned and so they went into storage. Nephew lost the lease where he was living, but he had his own machines. So, when he moved into our house, he brought his own machines and they’ve been sitting around ever since. I reckon there may be a few more sets of machines sitting around somewhere, too. We don’t throw stuff away. Like living in a daddgum museum.
