Product review (2 stars): You get what you pay for
The terminals seemed to be set out too far and consequentially the burner was kind of wedged in, but it did fit. When a pan was set on the element it was not sitting flat, to make sure that it was not a warped pan I sat it on the counter to check and it was good and flat. The first thing that I tried cooking were home fried potatoes, and I noticed that I had the stove turned almost all the way up to get them to brown, and I usually get them to brown nice on 5 or 6. After everything was cooled off, I decided to turn on the new element and the good existing one at the same time and see which one heated up the fastest. I turned both knobs to high at the same time and the old one was red hot and the new one was just starting to glow. The other difference that you can't see in the picture, is the coiled tube that makes up the element is round and the original one is flat on top. I would recommend, look close at the pictures on line and it might be worth while to pay a little more for a better one.
