Product review (4 stars): Gits 'er done...
I've tried (slightly) less-expensive replacement elements in the past.  This one seems well made, and was indeed an "exact replacement" by all measures.  We'll see how long it lasts.  (The missus is particularly hard on the appliances - she should've done torture testing for the manufacturers!)  My only quibble was the packaging - the element was shipped in bubble wrap that was somehow glued very snugly around the element.  Which made for secure shipping, but it probably took me 10 minutes to get the packaging removed without damaging the merchandise.
