Product review (4 stars): Not as necessary as some say
While I wish I had this tool (and the other) when replacing the door boot seal on an LG Tromm front load washer, my boyfriend and I managed to get the new seal on using our four hands and three plastic bicycle tire levers (specifically the Kool Stop levers from Amazon, but I'm sure other plastic ones would work fine also). ($100+ for tools I may use once every five years just didn't seem practical to me.) More tire levers would have made it easier, but it worked for both the inner and outer springs. It just takes A LOT of patience.

So I gave this tool four stars because I'm sure it's awesome, but if you have a tight budget like me I want you to know that you CAN do this without spending a fortune on tools.
