Second question I can though 😀 Statesman were acquired by Pik A Pak some time ago. Spares are available by phoning 01473 271272 and ask for Statesman spares.
Let us know what the spares ordering experience was like and the fitting of the seal as we are considering becoming a stockist.

Ordered the seal with Pik a Pak at 1.30pm yesterday afternoon,ladies i spoke to were very helpful,paid via card,so no account needed,was told it would be delivered within 48 hours via UPS.
Part has just arrived,so 22 hours ago since ordering!
Excellent service!
Will be fitting seal later today or tomorrow,so will post again.

Seal fitting pretty easy, front panel off,inside is similar layout to bosch machines with weights going around front of the tub,seal easily fitted with weights in place.
Had a one piece spring fitting for inner part, & a steel spring tensioned band on outer part…job done in 15-20 mins…
