Product review (5 stars): Battle to install, but worth the fight
I purchased this part to replace the very moldy and gross bellows on a washer in a new home (old owners didn't know how to care for a front loader I assume). The part fit well once installed, but the installation process was long and arduous.  We fought a long hard battle to get it in, seated correctly, and the dog gone spring around and secured. Thankfully I  read the reviews prior and someone had mentioned using chap stick tubes instead of the retainers that are provided - solid advice. It was a bit of a fight to get it in there, but worth it.  Washer doesn't stink now and there is a solid seal.
