Easy DIY Dryer Repair – Perfect Fit and Works Like New!
I don’t have much experience repairing appliances, but I decided to take on the challenge of fixing my dryer myself. After opening it up, I realized it was actually very simple to replace the parts. I purchased this kit and changed everything on my own without having to pay a technician. The parts included were exactly what I needed and fit perfectly. Everything matched my dryer model, and the quality feels solid and reliable. My dryer is now working like new again! I highly recommend this kit to anyone looking to save money and handle the repair themselves. Even with little experience, it’s totally doable.

Works well and price is outstanding
Out maytag dryer's heat went out and after testing the course with a multimeter, I found a break on the heating element. Please make sure your dryer is a top screen filter. It was easy to replace. Thank you YouTube.

Nice to have the whole kit with the components
I bought the wrong thing, it didn't fit my dryer, *BUT* I'm giving it 5 stars due to the fact that it's a complete KIT. My problem ended up being that red wire... Mine was totally burnt up, which was unexpected, but I was SO thankful that this came with that particular piece. Everything else in mine checked out and it's been working fine now, but I'm keeping this in case someone else has trouble with theirs.

Dryer heating element replacement
Perfect fit. Relatively easy install. There is a separate cover for the heating element so you don't have to take the whole back off the dryer. An instruction sheet that would have been helpful is not included. We changed everything that was easy to change. About an hour total. This is a better heating element than OEM. The old element had broken which is common for dryer heating elements. DIY and save probably $200.

I AM THE GIRL!!! If I can do it, you can too!
Took back off my Maytag Centennial and cleaned out all the lint and dust debris. Although I have a multimeter, I don’t have a clue how to use it. Dryer quit heating but was blowing air. Since I couldn’t test each individual part to see exactly which one caused failure, in which case I would have purchased OEM exact part. However, due to age of dryer, if $50 gets me by six months, it was money well spent. Simply take clear and accurate pictures B4 disconnecting wires and personally, wouldn’t dare leave these aftermarket parts unattended while dryer running. I replaced everything in the kit and she is working good for past four days now!! BOOM!! (No instructions in box, take pics of wires)

Fixed the Issue
Works Great!!! My Dryer stayed on but dried the clothes but would never turn off. I changed the Timer and other stuff but when I changed the heating element it stopped all that. Now it works fine. Easy to install Thank you

This heating element was simple to install and fit my Whirlpool Kenmore dryer perfectly. Once installed, it has worked consistently without any issues. The dryer heats quickly and maintains a steady temperature, which makes drying clothes efficient. It feels well-made and dependable, and so far it has held up with regular use. A solid replacement part that gets the job done.

Colis arrivé comme prévu, les morceaux ont étés facile a installer, car il y a une vidéo qui explique étape par étape, le tout fonctionne très bien, et pour un prix abordable, moins cher que de faire venir un réparateur a la maison. C'était pour ma sécheuse Kitchen Aid vieille de 25 ans, les morceaux sont compatible, et elle fonctionne comme une neuve! je le recommande a tous

Exactly what I needed. Had a broken coil in heating element but replaced all the other connectors it comes with as well, thermal fuse, thermostat and what not. Fit perfectly. So happy for a $50 fix, easy to DIY

Saved the day. Dryer stopped working and couldn't afford to have it repaired. After watching a few YouTube videos, was super easy to install. All the replacement parts I put in are still going strong and that's saying a lot! Household of 8 with 3 dogs and 2 cats so our dryer gets WAY more use than most lol

This arrived overnight and I'm glad I bought the full kit as not only was the heating coil bad in my cheapie Amana dryer but other parts as well. Unfortunately while trying to get the part pictured below onto the coil assembly it broke (See picture). I wasn't actually using a lot of force, but there is hardly any solder (weld) holding that piece together. Very shoddy construction. Thankfully the old part from the coil still tested fine and I was able to get that onto the coil assembly. Now the dryer works great. We shall see how it holds up. Word of advice. Get a Multimeter if you don't have one. It was invaluable in fixing this dryer. Revising this to a 1 star. It died within the warranty period (8 months) and there is no way to contact this company
