Do they cause less wear on your clothes or something?
- sokoloff 2y agoThe bearings on a front-loader live a hard life and eventually fail, often as a result of the seal failing. I will give a typical top-loader a longer projected life without significant mechanical maintenance. (I’ve changed two sets of bearings on my own front loaders and one for my in-laws. It’s doable DIY but takes several hours, making it expensive to have a tech come do it.)
- jaredhallen 2y agoI did bearings on a front loader once as well. Doable, but not particularly fun, that's for sure.
