    Phone arrived as described but the handset was broken in several pieces. There should have been more cushioning materials inside the box, perhaps even wrapping the handset for more protecting. Unfortunately, there is little anyone can do to control how roughly packages get handled during shipping. For that reason, more cushioning inside each box becomes even more necessary. Seller did ship me a replacement handset which arrived undamaged. I would recommend this seller! Very responsive!

    I recently installed the FSP Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Heating Element 279838, and it’s been fantastic. It was a genuine part and an exact fit for my dryer. The installation was straightforward, and the dryer now heats up quickly and consistently. Shipping was fast, and you can’t beat the price. Would highly recommend and will definitely come back again when in need of a part.

    effective replacement

    good part, second one we got from them in 2 years, does not put out the heat the factory one did. the first one burned out after awhile but we ordered a second one later on. local company had alot to do with it.

  • Best Value around

    The most affordable full refit kit for a dryer I found on the site. Not knowing exactly what was wrong it made sense to replace all the parts and buying individually was expensive compared to this kit. I wasn't prepared for the universal aspect of it though. I thought it would be just like all the parts on my dryer, but I ended up having to cut the wires and install the adapter ends to work it out. After reading the instructions a few times and looking at all the pieces: the instructions were like if you have the 3/8 use the 1/4 and put it on the male/female end and blah blah blah, but I finally figured it out!!! Success

  • So far so good

    Our dryer heater was getting weak, would have to run it twice sometimes. This rebuild kit worked great. Fitment was spot on. Time will tell how long it last. Part numbers were nearly identical to an appliance warehouse website.
