Exact Replacement & Easy to Install
December 16, 2024

Once, I figured out how to access the element, it was an easy installation and give me a chance to clean up the inside of the dryer. My dryer is now 100% again!

It took my husband and I 1.5 hours to break down the dryer and install the new heat element, and put it back together, but it works great!

Stress free
April 13, 2022

Quick and easy to use the website to find the part. Smooth and no stress to return the part because we decided to replace the appliance instead of repair. The physical labor to repair was beyond my ability (my hands and arms are not strong enough).

Damaged item delivered
September 15, 2021

Install was easy thanks to YouTube. However how the heating element is packed when delivering leads to the wire connection snapping off the heating element. I had to have three replacements sent before installing, how packing the heating element should be looked into to prevent install delays. Quick to install it was time consuming waiting for the same part to be replaced 3 times due to shipping damage.
