Best place for washing machine parts?

samcat_2

Where's the best place to get washing machine parts and has anyone replaced door seals themselves?

The door seal on my AEG OKO Lavamat 88730 has ripped and machine is leaking.

Good morning: You could take a look at http://www.ukwhitegoods.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=217
They also sell spares.

i've used www.espares.co.uk before now and they were helpful in identifying the exact parts I needed. I also brought via a cashback site and got 5%.
can't help with the door seal I'm afraid

try ebay. There is a good range of parts there. There is an AEG door seal here...item number-300139471650 £18.50 you do need to email the seller to confirm it fits your washer.

Watch Ebay, some of the spares sold on there are really cheap and nasty. Like most other things in life there's good and bad and this applies to spares as well as many are not original replacements and the quality can be, shall we say, not the best.

An article about it here

On Ebay we've seen a few people selling the real nasty parts and spanking people up for them. Not all, but just be careful about what you're actually buying as, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Thanks for all the replies - v. good advice, I ordered a branded part rather than risk e-bay
