I recently purchased a LG washer and experienced significant water hammer. After reading Rusty's post, I purchased a pair of Oatey, Quiet Pipes 38600 water surge absorbers and my water hammer problem was solved. I could not find them at Home Depot so I purchased them on line at $14.87 & $4.00 shipping each which brought the total for two to $37.74. They are easy to install and can be mounted upright, on its side or pointing down. The only tool you need is a channel lock pliers. I would recommend this product for people who are experiencing water hammer.
