-   I think it's a combination of the violent vibration during the rinse and spin cycles as well as clothes getting stuck between the drum and gasket. The tear in my machine starts from the door lock push button switch and travels around the top of the gasket and ends at the opposite side (a 180 degree tear). I think replacing this gasket every so 6 months or so may be a lifetime job. -   jklee_55

I have this same front load series, this is also my second time replacing the door seal/gasket. I love my front load but am very dissappointed with the quality of the product. This is the second seal in just over 6 months, can't GE come up with a material that wears better!!!

Comment by Guest, posted on Apr 10, 2008

My washer is 1 months old, I just opened the door after the cycle finished and the door seal had a large tear in it. It was big enough to allow several pieces of clothing to get caught up and twisted in it. I'd say this seal design is lacking a lot, it seems to be a material problem.
