The part was Whirlpool OEM, and arrived in 2 days, as advertised. Fit like a glove. Reconnected sensors %26 wires, and it took off drying again. No issues.

Installation of Dryer heating element
I would have paid $60-90 at a repair shop, not counting the labor cost and travel charge. I really didn't think this would work, but it works beautiful. I'm so impressed with Walmarts shipping service and in store pickup! I just needed my dryers serial and model number. Was installed by me in about 15-minutes! The re-hooking up of my dryer vent was a lot harder.

Well worth the slightly higher price.
It fits, and is the correct part. And, it works better than the one it replaced. Actually, it performs better than the part that was replaced previously. Clothes are dry after only one cycle.

Awesome Buy!
I ordered this online after my dryer's heating element went out. It was worth the wait & half the price if I purchased it locally. I could have purchased two of these for the price of the local purchase. Great deal & awesome savings!
