This washer does not include water inlet hoses. A list of hoses
available for purchase from Maytag is provided on the first page

hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace water inlet hoses if
bulges, kinks, cuts, weab or leaks are found.
When replacing your water inlet hoses, mark the date of
replacement on the [abe[ with a permanent marker.
