It's easier to get a new washing machine unless you want to spend half the
cost of a new one on tools and parts. They're not worth it.

Possibly.

New bearing kit (two bearings and bearing seal) for a Hotpoint
is under a fiver. Buy a new drum seal at the same time as old
one won't reseal after 20 years. Don't know if same applies to
a Zanussi.
