David S Wellington , NV March 25, 2015 Appliance: Model SAMSUNG WF209ANW Suspension issues; the machine developed excessive wobble during spin cycles Replaced the suspension components by slightly lifting and supporting the drum assembly allowing replacement of the two support springs, followed by replacing the two shock dampers located at the lower front of the machine, followed by replacing the two rear dampers. The only difficulty was in designing a system to gently lift and support the drum assembly, needed to safely replace the top support springs. None of this could have been done without the wonderful support of Appliance Parts Pro Team. Thanks to all the team for your help.

Michael B Cashiers , NC March 28, 2016 Appliance: Samsung Washer WF209ANW/XAA-0000 Leaky drain hose noisy unbalanced operation undetermined other leak I disassembled the unit using the AppliancePartsPros videos as a guide to build my confidence that I could do so. Thank you folks for providing that service to us do-it-yourselfers! I found the leaky drain hose which had developed a pinhole, I also had another very small leak that I could not locate, possibly around the door boot seal. Knowing I couldn't locate that leak I ordered all of the gaskets and replaced them, including the tub seal. This was very easy to do, and I'd recommend it to anyone trying to extend the life of their washer. I had suspected a broken spider initially, due to the sounds the washer made during spin cycles, but as I disassembled the tub and drum assemblies, the spider was in great shape (10-year old unit). I decided to replace the shock absorbers and dampeners for good measure. Wow, what a difference. It runs like it did when we bought it. No leaks, and the drum stays well balanced throughout the cycle, it doesn't vibrate anymore or knock. You can hardly tell it's running, actually. The parts can be found cheaper elsewhere, but for the service and confidence that APP.com provides it's a small price to pay for what they've done for us and I commend that.
