Plumbing in a washing machine.

How easy is this?
Got new one delivered today. Comet won't fit them. However, the guy told me to remove the bolts from the back.
Is it then just a case of attaching cold water hose from the sink?
Should i attempt or wait for my dad?

Dead easy as it comes with a handy little book telling you what to stick where! (And if I can do it, anyone can.)
Two points - some washing machines have plastic things the bolts screw into that also need to come out.
If your previous machine had hot and cold feed, and the new one is cold feed only, you'll be left scratching your head with an extra red coloured tap, wondering what you're missing.
And don't forget the drainage pipe unless you're planning a flood.
(And yes I have done both these things, and felt very silly when I phoned the shop for advice!)All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

Another vote for "wait for dad". Novices and water supplies are not a great combination. Like a mighty oak from little acorns - a small leak, and before you know it your kitchen is floating off down the road
We could all learn a little something from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.0
