Makes removing washer seal spring a fast easy job.Well made ,great piece

Made removing and placing the spring so easy. I know using a screwdriver would work but this makes it so easy.

Normally I never have time for reviews but for this i made time. 6 hours I tried to put the rear spring on my lg thinq washer!! I was a sweaty mess. I bought this after determining i just couldn't do it. Product arrived ( on time) and I dismantled the washer and had the rear spring on and reassembled the washer completely in about 20 minutes. This was a life saver. I tried many tips and tricks before this and none work. Worth the price even if you use it once and throw it away. My wife called a repair man and he said 150 just to look at it and stated the washer i had was very difficult and would be a minimum of 3 hours labor.

After using it to install a new door bellow to my Maytag washer, it turned out to be a handy tool. only reason it is not 5 stars is that it doesn’t open up as wide as I needed it to for this installation.

10 stars. Not sure who these people are leaving reviews that it's not wide enough or the prongs don't fit. They're lying. Probably missed their return window and tried to extort Amazon for a discount or refund.I pulled this out of the package and 20 seconds later I had reattached the snap ring on my Kenmore Elite front-load washer.Don't hesitate to buy!

Bought this when I was replacing the door seal on my Whirlpool WFW9150WW02. This tool opens to approximately 4 inches maximum. The spring clamp on my washer needed to be expanded to about 6 inches. Since I needed to get the job done immediately, I had to resort to bending the jaws out until they opened far enough to expand my clamp. This wasn't easy since this tool is actually built quite well. I had to use a hand held sledgehammer to get the jaws to bend outward. I recommend an expansion tool that screws out. They can stretch the spring much further. Here's an example of one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CKYX8W7X/ref=sspa_mw_detail_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9kZXRhaWwp13NParams

I recently used this Washing Machine Inner/Outer Spring Expansion Tool to remove the door boot seal (to get to the drain pump) on my LG front-load washer, and it made the job SIGNIFICANTLY easier. The tool's built-in spring provides excellent flexibility, allowing for smooth removal and Reinstallation of the inner and outer tub seal clamps.The ergonomic, non-slip handles offer a comfortable grip. With this tool, I was able to access the areas behind and below to get to the failed drain pump and replace it. Saved both time and money by avoiding a service call.If you're planning to tackle washer maintenance or repairs yourself, this tool is a must-have. It's apparently compatible with various brands, including LG, Samsung, Whirlpool, and Kenmore.

Works great and saves time !
