Product review (2 stars): Good for a quick fix if you can't afford the real deal.
I bought this item back in May 2011 and it has worked fine until a week or so ago. Now I have a pile of laundry and no dryer. Fortunately it's sunny and warm outside so I can still line dry. Do yourself a favor and get the OEM part, if possible. My OEM part lasted seven or eight years and that was after moving the dryer across the country three or four times in the back of a cheap moving truck. $70 for an OEM part that will last several years or $25 for a more temporary solution. I didn't read all the reviews but no one I read had one last more than a year.
