Product review (5 stars): Worked great,  avoided Sears predatory "service agreement"
My Kenmore dryer started squeaking.  I called the 800 number given me by my local Sears store to get it serviced.  The way they do business is this: 1)-They set a date to service your dryer.  2)- You pay over the phone, in advance a $193 "service agreement".  3)-When they check out your dryer, they determine, unilaterally, if your dryer is "repairable".  They did ask me if my dryer is over 5 years old, which I think is noteworthy.  4)-If your dryer is "unrepairable" in their opinion,  they give you coupons for a new appliance worth "up to $500".  I had a hard time believing that the once venerable Sears would be so slimy.  I believe purchasers of new Sears appliances should know what they have in store for them if they chose Sears when their appliance needs servicing.

So I opted to fix the dryer myself.  The item purchased,  coupled with the glide kit paired with the maintenance kit worked perfectly.  All items were exact replacements.  The repair took my wife and I the better part of an afternoon.  All in all, I would have preferred hiring a repairman,  but since Sears was so sketchy,  I opted to purchase the parts myself.  I did save about $140.  And the dryer works perfectly.
