Amazing!
My Heating Element went out in my dryer and i was stressing out!! My husband and I have very busy schedules and not having a working dryer is out of the question! A coworker told me what was wrong and I ordered from here. Not only was it shipped out super quick but received 4 days faster than expected. I'm not too handy but even I could put this part on my dryer myself and feel like Little Miss Fix It! :)

Great Product
I just received the heating element for my dryer. It came in perfect condition and was easy to install. I'm glad to be able to dry clothes again:) The only downfall was that I paid extra for shipping and it took longer than I expected.

Great value
Ordered this part for about half what other suppliers wanted. It fit perfectly and got my dryer working as good as new. I could not be happier.

VERY HAPPY
I called a local supply store and they wanted a lot more money for this part. After they were kind enough to give me the part number I found this site. I ordered the part, watched a video on how to replace it. I received it in the mail within a few days and my dryers working fabulously. I will be making future purchases from this site if I ever need parts.
Thank you. -
