Long lasting
Bought this on 9/15/21 just replaced the part on 11/14/24 but it wasn’t even the problem so the part was still good. Originally I bought the cheap competitors but it only lasted a couple months this part might be higher price but it’s still cheaper then replacing cheap ones continuously.

Excellent replacement for my Maytag dryer
Easy to replace (using YouTube). No odor on first power-on as I heard might happen. Probably took 45 minutes to replace, on my first ever attempt. Buy it and continue to use your old dryer for many more years.

Exact fit for my Maytag 2000 Series (MEDE201YW0) dryer!
Worked like a charm. Was an exact match to my original unit which had the teeth and wings that lined up perfectly. It should be noted that this will also work for a Maytag 2000 series (MEDE201YW0) as that’s what mine is. The first part I ordered was not an exact or even close fit and didn’t work out (beware of others) but this one was great! Here’s to hoping it has a lot of life. I’ll report back with any issued but so far so good!

Great heating element replacement.
Easy to install? Nope, nada..but then I am 75 years old and just getting out of the floor was an accomplishment. The element was easy to install (after watching relevant YouTube videos) and has been working beautifully for 6 months.

Very easy to install
Wire connection different, I was able to adapt, but not 100% plug and play. I looked it up by part number and this was the replacement. The part itself works perfectly. Very easy to install. Even with the different sizes of spade terminals, the dryer was running in less than an hour.

OEM part.
The price was a little on the high side but for oem part, I think price range was alright. Looked and felt just like the part replaced. So far works well and not having any issues. Shipping was fast and with no issues.

Works great!
The heater element arrived on time and worked as good as the original. It was easy to install all bolts lined up perfectly.

Cheap in price and quality
This part seemed to be a good value but lasted less than 2 months. 🙁
