Perfect Fit 13 March 2014
After reading the reviews of others, how difficult to fit.... I was worried! However although the panels on my machine do not remove, the top does as does the control panel, after removing the plastic outer snap ring there is ample space to remove the inner lock band, a simple socket and extension bar makes the task easy. What I will say is look closely at the seal before removing the old one, the refit is quite straight forward, I'm no engineer, useful with my hands yes the job took around 45 minutes, it's the first time I've done this, so guess around 20 minutes next time. Don't be fooled by people's reviews, if you can change a bicycle puncture you have the skill for this. Just watch how you remove it, and guess what the refit is the reverse.... As Nike say "just do it!"

Good part to fit Howden range - if a little snug 16 August 2013
The seal fitted the machine perfectly - although I had a hard time getting the inner retaining ring back on, but that's not the fault of the item! Definitely need a spare pair of hands to help prise it in place, if only for that part of the job. Just to be warned. The rest was easy - although the replacement part is a tight fit against the door - no leaks tho... better very snug than loose!

Great value. Great Quality. And a small bit of hard work and thinking involved in fitting 19 July 2012
It was great to be able to order the part myself and fit it myself instead of calling out a plumber who would have charged whatever he wanted. I would not have been able to do with without the video, but saying that, it was still difficult because all washing machines are slightly different. But i did it and i felt i had accomplished something. And it works perfectly now. :)

What it said on the tin. 27 April 2012
Another great order. Great price and quick delivery. Watched video on site once and fitted it easier than expected all though it did take a couple of hours.

Hoover WM door seal replacement 05 March 2012
Prompt delivery. Quality of part fine. Pity there are not more type-specific videos of how to change these on the espares website. Some difficulties in fitting more because of the machine than the part.

washing machine door seal fitting video 14 December 2011
although on the video it was suggested the fitting instructions would be similar to most machines the bosch instructions were very poor for our hoover 1400. more emphasis should have been made on the differing type of machines the same product would suit

HOOVER PE235 door seal 27 June 2011
The seal was the correct product, and of very good quality rubber. The instruction video on the espares website was for a BOSCH washing machine, but that did not quite work for the Hoover washing machine. Instead of taking the front of, the seal should be replaced by removing the top only, and fitting the seal through the door opening. The help the customer, a short written description of what steps are needed to fit the seal would probably be very useful, or have a option on the website to add installation procedure. I spent some time trying to work out how to do it, and eventually came across a blog which explained how to do it.

Perfect 19 April 2011
Arrived quickly and was easy to fit to my Hoover machine. Never fitted one before but it was no problem, if you have the right tools for the job.

Not a task for the inexperienced diy'er 21 September 2014
Although the video was helpful, the fitting for my particular machine was slightly different, in place of elasticated bands holding the seal in place, the cabinet end of the seal was held in by a large plastic circlip, and the inner one by a metal clip which tighened via a threaded rod. Access was awkward, but possible without removing either the front cover, or concrete balance weight, but took some time and effort to do. The seal was well made and a good fit, and was delivered remarkably quickly.
