8544771 Dryer Heating Element & 279973 Thermal Fuse & Thermostat Cut Off Kit Compatible with Maytag Whirlpool Kenmore Replace W10836011 WP8544771 AP6013115 PS11746337 PS990361 EAP11746337 7154072

I purchased this element for my Whirlpool Duet electric dryer - having never replaced one DIY before. The element itself seems well-made. Installing it (as a first-timer) was a definite learning process (protip: YouTube videos and take plenty of "before" pictures before disassembling the connections to the old one). However, with a little patience I was able to figure out the necessary connections to hook it up. It took me about two hours, but I was moving slowly to make sure I didn't screw up any of the steps along the way.Oh, and be prepared to pull out dryer fluff - you don't want to leave any of that in there. I discovered a good bit of it in there on the floor of the compartment and on the dryer drum casing. The element is shielded by a metal casing but it's not exactly sealed off from lint/fluff (at least mine isn't) and I did note some "charred" lint when I was pulling out the old element.The element has been installed and working properly for a few months now.

Easy to install

Installed a few months ago. So far, I’m glad I did not spend the money for an OEM part as this was about 4x less money.

DO NOT BUY - READ THIS REVIEW - My 1st purchase was delivered to me in March 1st. Installed and was working within days. The heating element has already gone out by May 15 (of the same year, 2021). :-( Waiting to hear from there customer support....AND NO WORD/REPLY to Messages sent back in May .......I thought buying a 2nd one while I waited a reply would help...It is now June 2 and I received the 2nd one from this company and installed it. Upon removal of the orig. bought in March it was burnt, BLACK on BOTH SIDES. I did put the 'newly purchased product from May' element in and the dryer is working but I have yet to hear back from this seller on the orig. I purchased in March and am now out $$ for purchasing 2 of these when the first was clearly defective. Note this was installed in a Whilpool Dryer and I am still waiting on a reply. Will update if I ever do hear from this seller on what the response is etc....AND HERE I AM JUNE 21ST AND THE 2ND ONE IS ALREADY DONE-ZO AND NO LONGER HEATS.

I would have rated this a 5 star, the heater piece fit great, but one of the smaller pieces which is a sensor, did not fit. Also, my son had to take the entire dryer apart to replace the pieces. Shipper was great and so was the price, a lot less expensive than a new dryer! It works great.

This fit my Amanda Tandem 7300 dryer (NED7300WW1).I went through a few kits before I decided to check for obstructions in the exhaust hose going to the outside.I highly suggest that you check that the exhaust hose is free of obstructions while are replacing these parts.

It just worked--

Heating Element seems to have fixed my dryer heating issues, but the package arrived without the thermal fuse. I paid for an item that never arrived. I would have left this with the seller directly, but did not see an option to contact the seller. Would have been 5 stars otherwise.The heating element seems like good quality and have used for several loads that have worked great.
