Old one got a tear in the front and was leaking water on the floor. Had to take apart a bunch of the machine, and I gotta say that the two seals (inner drum and outer casing) were both tricky to get on properly.
Doing a test load of laundry now, and there’s no leaks (so far), so that’s pretty excellent
This is actually very interesting.
These seals are a real pain indeed, but $50 and an afternoon of sweat is indeed worth several more years of life on a perfectly decent appliance.
Those door seals are why I’ll never buy a front load washer again. Top loaders are so much better!
Hear hear
Don’t even know how the old one tore in the first place.
You’ve almost inspired me to change my freezer seal instead of just adding more Vaseline when I can feel cold air leaking.
You can also do it the lazy (and cheaper) way and get one of those toddler fridge locks to hold it shut
Primo work. That sounds like a real pickle for sure!
Nice job, man!
excellent fixes are indeed excellent
