Having taken apart the washing machine and realising that it was the inner bearing that had failed (I already had a replacement for the outer bearing), I was seriously struggling to find any site that could supply the inner bearing that didn't state "available from manufacturer within 1-2 weeks". S2R came through though, had it available and it came with next day shipping if I ordered before 5pm. I mention this purely as I clicked the final payment button at 16:59:56. Technically I was 4 seconds before 5pm. That was stressful. However, it clearly took a bit longer at their end as the bearing arrived one additional day later.

Tbh it wasn't an issue as I'd ordered a few less critical replacement parts as well and they all ended up arriving at the same time, and the machine was back up and running within a few hours of everything arriving, so it all worked out nicely.

Quality parts and surprisingly fast delivery from France... :shrug: Family is happy again though, so thanks.
