W11106747, W10340443 Washer Door Bellow Boot Seal Gasket Compatible for Whirlpool

Easier to install than I thought. It replaced the gross one that was in there.

This is good quality rubber and is easy to remove from. Your washer. Works just fine no problems with it.

Perfect fit, arrived one day earlier than promised. Couldn’t be happier.

We recently had to replace our front loader door gasket/boot for our Whirlpool Duet WFW8640BW1. I have replaced a gasket on a very similar door previously and had a real hassle of a time doing it, but one of the other reviewers had suggested a link to a repair video from Repair Clinic (there are many others) that shows using a spring clamp (or a few) to hold the spring and gasket in place while you are stretching it around.This is a repair that is within reach of most Do It Yourselfers (DIY'ers). It's really odd how Whirlpool designed some of this, because it requires so many panels to be removed, but while you are doing it you definitely want to clear the large plastic cylindrical trap that's just below the door. We found a bra pad! and several coins that had slipped between the baffle into the washing drum and gotten sucked into that filter, and were therefore slowing the drainage. Just be sure to take care of that while installing. Follow the video closely for removing (easy) and attaching (hard) the gasket/boot. The spring clamp requires two pliers to pull the spring apart and reattach it, and the tension on the wire will want to pull the boot off the metal rim where it attaches. Therefore this may be easier as a two person job, but I was able to complete it on my own with the clamps. Exercise patience at this step, and once complete, the rest is easy! Also make sure the drain holes on the bottom are aligned with the washers, as it can twist during installation.Altogether this is well made, seals the door well, and is a great savings and extends the life of your washer. Very pleased!PS, another tip to extend the life of the door seal, if you aren't already doing it--be sure to leave the door open to air dry after use and wipe out mold/mildew from the rubber periodically to keep it in good condition.

This is a replacement part for my Maytag Washer. As with most replacement parts, you pay about 20X what this part should cost. Unlike most replacement parts, this one was advertised as easy to change out. It was definitely not easy. You need to deconstruct the whole front of the washer, lift it up out of the pan and perform microsurgery on the washer that most people (including myself, a business guy) do find themselves doing on an average day. That said, I was able to replace the part - took me about 2.5 hours start to finish + a couple of cut knuckles. Even though the part was expensive for what it was, the DIY side of it means I probably did the replacement for about 30% of what I would have been charged had I paid to have Sears do it. Seems like a quality part though and the finished job look like new.

Easy to install. Worked perfectly in my washing machine. Had to replace the original due to staining.

Arrived quickly and in great condition. It fits perfect and I’m happy with the light gray color on my white Maytag washing machine that was purchased used for a vacation home. The only reason for needing it, is the previous owner let mildew develop on her machines bellow and it stained. Keep your machine door open while not in use and you won’t have that problem! This item seems to be very good quality. I’ve only washed one load since installing it, but seems great so far. I don’t expect any issues. It took two people to install it as replacing the wire cable and spring mechanism isn’t as quick and easy to pop on as a YouTube video made it appear. But definitely doable. We were careful to not let any pinch points damage the bellow in the installation process. I recommend this product and would purchase again, although I don’t anticipate it will be necessary.

Perfect replacement for my previous seal that had become torn. It was easy to install, took about 10 minutes from start to finish.
