Thanks Jim.
I’ve seen the drum with spider attached for £250 plus, thats rediculous! I want it as a spare as my machine is about 15 years old, bought second hand and when I got it was seriously gunked up. My feeling are there will be some corrision to the spider, and if they stop making them in the future I am stuffed! :rolls:
Have cleaned the machine with Affresh cleaner, so at least it is clean.
Also if I have to replace the bearings will I also have to change the bearing cross as well? Never done a Bosch before, But I want to keep this machine running the rinsing is perfect and cycle times short!! 🙂
Thanks

Thanks Greg
Was hoping to get the spider on its own! The drum shouldn’t have any corrosion, I hope!
I feel this washer is well worth putting money in to! 🙂
With VAT that makes it £214.00, thats the cheapest I have found!Thank you again

Yes, it is a pain when you have to buy major parts you don’t need. On the other hand, I don’t think I’ve ever come across a metal tub Bosch machine with drum spider failure from corrosion.

Hi Phidom,
So basically do you think I would be wasting my money then?
This machines previous owner must have used liquid detergent, low temp washes and under dosed the detergent judging by all the limescale that has been removed. 🙁
When I got this machine you have never seen a mess like it! There was 1/2 an inch of scum on the tub, that is what you could see if you pull the door seal back, the rubbish that Ariel bio powder and Affresh washer cleaner removed you would not believe. So after all that there may be NO corrosion ❓In the future if they discontinue the WFF2000 spider would another one fit it off a later model? Its unlikely to get messy from me, I wash everything at 60, run regular maintainence washes with Affresh and generally look after it! 8)
Thanks

Yes, I think you would be eccentric to say the least to spend that sort of money on a part that may not fail anyway 😉 If you are that worried you could just sell the machine on again. If you have the space you could look round for another machine of the same model, that way you would have a spare one of everything, hopefully for somewhat less than £214.

Thanks Phidom for the honesty! 😉
Hi Chris
I haven’t got room for another machine, I had already considered it, need a bigger house! If what Phidom says is true it might be ok, hopefully. Have you ever come across a WFF2000 with a corroded spider? This washer seems extremely well built. Plus getting another machine up 2 flights of stairs with bends at top and bottom is a challenge, cannot use a sack cart, only man power!! :rolls:
Thanks very much
😉
