Product review (5 stars): Fixed leaky part and was SO easy!
I owe this review to anyone out there who is doubting if you can fix this problem yourself.  I am a woman and this is only the second appliance repair I have ever attempted (I have an accounting degree, not any mechanical background whatsoever).  All you need is the right tools and this is so very easy.  Search for this part on the internet, I think it is appliancepros which has great videos for this specific part.  If you are single, like me, make sure you have all of the right tools for this particular project.  Watch the video first and verify, because I pulled out the washer and started taking it apart only to find out I was missing one tool.  It was so easy and it only took me a while due to the trip to the hardware store.

I can't imagine how much they would have charged me to fix this, but I definitely saved some money.
