This saved me from getting a new washer.
June 15, 2023|Scoundre1, Richmond, VA

Figured out my problem with YouTube then my parents referred me here for replacement parts. Found what I was looking for easily and had it within a week. Washer works great now.

Fast and fits my machine
October 24, 2018|Scootie P, Undisclosed

Had to have a second person hold top of washer open or else disconnect wiring. Went in easily and seem to be improved over factory parts.

Shipping was Fast and Parts fit Perfectly
July 26, 2018|joshpa1231, Los Angeles, CA

The package arrived sooner than the expected date. It took me about 30 minutes to install after watching Youtube videos online. Make sure to have Sil-Glyde Lubricant ready so you can apply to the areas where friction may occur. Otherwise, the plastic will end up breaking apart. Washing machine works just like new again.

Should Have Been The Original Part
June 29, 2018|ATHJ, Undisclosed

The repair was extremely simple and replacing the rods instantly resolved the "unbalanced load" error that we were getting with every cycle.

Great product/great price
June 22, 2018|Skipp, Richmond, VA

After having the lid recall repair performed, the top was harder to take off than I thought. Once the top was off, very easy repair to perform. Pretty much a 10 minute job once the top was off.

Perfect fit, half the price of most other vendord
June 10, 2018|Raffi, Undisclosed

Getting the washer top off proved harder than expected due to the factory recall installed enforcements that basically prevent future repairs (very odd setup). Installing the new rods was a breeze once the top was off.
