Product review (2 stars): I'm wondering if the manufacturer ships the parts like this (I suspect so)
This part is the same OEM as the part on my washer, however it is not the same part as the original. As others have experienced, the Bellow / Boot Seal arrived twisted up in a too-small box. I'm wondering if the manufacturer ships the parts like this (I suspect so). Unfortunately after several hours across a couple of days, I could not install the boot seal - it would not stretch to fit or stay on my washer. What was very frustrating was that I could easily reinstall the old part. And in my case, I was able to fix the leak by fiddling with the old boot seal. I was however very pleased with customer service - otherwise i'd change my rating to a 1 out of 5.
