Not truthful
September 10, 2021

We used the Chat feature on the website. The representative told me repeatedly that the part I ordered would come with instructions and said it was an easy fix; I could do it myself The part arrived quickly. There were NO instructions. When I called back about instructions, the representative told me he doesn't have access to the technician's manual, so he could not provide instructions. He said I could schedule a service call then he recommended I watch a YouTube video to assist me with the repair. Very frustrating experience. Plus the second representative rambled, talked in circles, and told me the same thing 4 times in 4 different ways.

Easy to install but still no heat.
January 24, 2021

I replaced all 4 thermostats/cutoffs and the heating coil. The dryer still doesn't heat. All the parts were easy to replace. But it does me no good if the dryer doesn't heat.

Frustrated, Nj

It was easy, took about 10 minutes to complete the task and check to see if the dryer was heating.
