  Expensive but works! 08 August 2012

  Needed to replace the original which had worn out and would not stay closed. The online video of how to remove the old one and fit the new one was very useful - well worth watching. Pleased I achieved it without professional help. Some specialist tools (e.g. Torx drivers) are necessary but otherewise straightforward if fiddly! Expensive bit of plastic!

  Replacement Dispenser 16 April 2012

  At 1/5th the cost of a new (slimline) machine this is a pricey item. Not the easiest thing to fit on my 10year old machine and pressed metal securing tabs are sharp - beware ! Why can't we mention product prices, it's pretty relevant ? Nonetheless it's fitted and it works... which is nice.

  Very effective product 08 February 2012

  Not quite the identical piece of kit as a replacement. However it was easy to fit and does excellent work. So it does what it says on the tin and easier than calling a man out!

  Quality excellent, Instructions rather lacking, delivery slow 27 July 2011

  Sent Immediately but Overnight took three days to cross London. Not worth the extra! Watching the video carefully you will hear a rattle when the girl takes the lid off the dishwasher. That's the two nylon hinge buffers falling to the floor. the hinge arm fits into the notch on these buffers. Takes a little working out without any help from the instructions. She recommends using Dishwasher liquid to lubricate the seal. Lubrication is vital but I would never put liquid detergent into a dishwasher. Use Vaseline (best) or Chain Lube (white grease) or even furniture polish at a pinch. Run a quick wash to clean and test. Replacing the dispenser is not as simple as you might think. However much pressure you apply to push down, it is likely that all the nylon lugs will not have latched fully. It is important to latch all these as any leakage into the lid will not help the electronics. The secret is the following: The nylon lugs are in pairs, place a flat screwdriver between them, right down to the inner curved corner of the stainless spring plate. Press there and the spring plate will easily latch over the nylon stepped wedges.

  Producf as described - quality OK. 13 July 2011

  Unable to comment on ease of fitting as the unit is still in the box. Looks simple enough, no doubt I shall watch your video before proceeding.

  Easy fix for very anoying fault 27 June 2011

  The detergent door became impossible to close. Replacing with this unit solved the problem completely. Fairly easy to fit but would advise using small 'slips' to slide in between the folded sheet metal tangs of the diswasher door and the plastic retaining moulding of the dispenser to ease removal. Work around the dispenser, lever up the metal tang, slide in the 'slip', this will ensure that the disenser slides out easily when all retainers 'slipped'. I used pieces cut from an old plastic milk bottle cut to about 25mm wide by 40mm long. The demo fitting video on the espares web site is very good, if they added the advice on 'slips' it would be perfect.

  bosh dishwasher part 11 March 2011

  The fitting of this part was very straight forward the only thing I would like to point out is that the finisher warning light was slightly different from the original,so I had to cut a small amount of plastic away inorder for it to fit the socket.
