This is a bellow assembly, also known as a door boot gasket kit, and it is designed for use with front load washers. This gasket acts as the main seal between the door of the washing machine and the wash tub. This seal might wear out over time, or it might be damaged, resulting in water leaking from around the door during the wash cycle. If you notice leaks coming from the door it may be time to replace the door boot gasket on your washer. This kit includes the seal, the front and rear spring clamps, and installation instructions.

Great part-worked as expected
The part arrived in proper condition. The instructions were minimal, therefore I used a YouTube instruction video to assist me with the installation. It was not an easy task but once it was completed, the part worked as expected.

The part installation is difficult for a first-timer.
The par was in great condition when received. Installation instructions are minimal and confusing as it illustrated operations that were not relevant.

Worked as expected
It was a bit challenging to put in place. We had to take apart the front of the washer to get the rubber ring on to the small lip on the inner part of the washer then to stretch the metal ring to secure it in place. Then you need to put the rubber ring on the outer part and stretch the metal ring to put in place. You need at least three hands to do this. It is very hard to keep it in place and not have it slip off the upper parts of the lip while you are trying to stretch it in place.

Outstanding Service
The part received (washer door bellow assembly) was well-packaged and shipped immediately. It turned out I didn’t need the part after all. I got easy return instructions from PartSelect, and a prompt refund. Couldn’t ask for better service! I’ll be back!!

Part was fine, instructions were awful
The part worked fine and fixed the leak, but the instructions were horrific. It ended up taking me around four hours because there was no information on the springs and YouTube videos weren’t too helpful. Finally figured out how to use channel locks to pull the front spring enough to get it locked In. Then it was simple.

Old bellows was torn and needed to be replaced as the washing machine leaked.
This was my first time performing repairs on this machine. I work in the engineering field and consider myself as having at least some mechanical aptitude. The included instructions contained references to the disassembly of the reservoirs. This did not apply to my washer. I was able to find a youtube video which was not si
... Read moregnificantly helpful. Be prepared to keep track of parts removed and hardware. Disassembly requires disassembly and removal of washer door. Further disassembly was required to adequately access the part to be replaced. This includes removal of two large weights which improved access. I removed the damaged bellows. The two spring-loaded clamps are way easier to remove than to install. I gently set the new part in place to ensure I had the right part which seems to be easily damaged. Securing the inner spring-loaded clamp was difficult as the new bellows needs to be installed in a specific orientation (it needs to be "keyed") and is quite floppy and pops out of position easily. I'd recommend an additional pair of hands or two. Careful usage of multiple "C" clamps may be helpful, as well. Use caution as to not pinch fingers or trap tools. The spring of the spring-loaded clamp is quite strong. I used two pairs of locking pliers to grab the eyelets at each end of the spring. The more you can extend the spring for 10+ seconds - without breaking it - the better. It will likely take multiple attempts to apply the spring-loaded clamp when the bellows is in the correct position. Make extra sure the bellows is fully seated, in the correct alignment and that the inner spring-loaded clamp is in the correct position. Partially reassemble the washer to the point where the large front plate is installed. Reassembly and attachment of the door is optional at this point It is it's own bundle of joy to reassemble and adjust. I saved it for last. Securing the outer spring-loaded clamp was difficult as the achieving proper seal seating while installing the outer spring-loaded clamp was difficult. It is at least as difficult as installing the innerspring-loaded clamp as it seemed to be more likely that the seals of the bellows would pop out of place while working with it. Again, make extra sure the bellows is fully seated, in the correct alignment and that the outer spring-loaded clamp is in the correct position. After assembly and attachment of the door it was misaligned (the latching bar of the door collided with the latching mechanism in the large front plate). It required further disassembly and reassembly of the door to achieve proper alignment. I ran a load of wash and no leaking.

Are used a YouTube video from Scott the fix-it guy to help me with the repair. The paper instructions were not very helpful. I removed the top in front of the washer as well as the concrete parts inside to make me springs easier to install. My husband and I had to put the springs on together with our hands and screwdrivers. I was able to

Repurposing Washer to a rental, seal was smelly and uncleanable.
I watched the great video on youtube first, my washer model was a bit different, and removing the front panel was a bit different, but easy to figure out. I also had to remove the door separately. In order to install the first clip spring, I had to loosen the counterbalances a bit to get the seal properly aligned. From there I was able
... Read more to install the spring clip my myself. So far, so good, installing the second clip to the front panel was quite difficult by myself, and the rubber kept popping out of the gap. Finally I enlisted another pair of hands to hold the clip in place up top and on the sides while I stretched the spring around the bottom. It took about 5 tries before we got it secured.
