Compatibility & Fitment
This kit is the "universal" heating repair solution for most Whirlpool-manufactured 29-inch wide dryers. Key compatible brands include:
- Whirlpool & Kenmore: Fits most 70, 80, 90, and 110 series models (e.g., 110.66722501).
- Maytag & Amana: Compatible with many Bravos and Centennial models using the 279838 element.
- Estate, Roper, & KitchenAid: Direct fit for dozens of traditional top-load matching electric dryers.
- Note: Specifically for Electric dryers. If you have a gas dryer, the heating element will not be compatible, though some thermostats may be.
When to Replace
- No Heat / Cold Drum: The dryer spins normally, but the air never gets warm—typically caused by a snapped heating coil or a blown thermal fuse.
- Dryer Won't Start: On many models, a blown 3392519 thermal fuse will prevent the dryer from even turning on as a safety precaution.
- Takes Too Long to Dry: A partially sagged or grounded element can produce insufficient heat, doubling or tripling your drying times.
- Dryer Shuts Off Early: A faulty 3387134 cycling thermostat can signal the dryer to stop before the clothes are dry or cause the unit to overheat.
- Tripped Circuit Breaker: A grounded element (where the coil touches the metal box) will cause the 240V breaker in your home to trip instantly.
Installation Tips
- Safety First: You MUST unplug the dryer from the 240V outlet. Electric dryers use high voltage that can be lethal—do not attempt a "live" test.
- Vacuum the Chassis: While the back panel is off, vacuum out all accumulated lint from the bottom of the dryer and the blower housing. This is the best way to prevent your new parts from failing.
- Check the Vent: Before starting your first load with the new parts, check your outdoor vent for restrictions. A clogged vent is the #1 reason these fuses blow.
- Handle Coil with Care: When installing the element into the heater box, ensure the coil is not stretched or touching any metal surfaces.
- Tighten Terminals: Ensure all wire spade connectors are snug. Loose connections create heat, which can melt the new thermostats and lead to another failure.

Expensive Look Without The Expense!
Size: Medium, Color: Black, Size: Medium, Color: Black
Sizing:
If you’re a true large like me and close to but less than fifteen pounds overweight, normal length and with a 44” chest, buy a medium and use the shirt to inspire you to lose the beer belly. If you have similar dimensions but are overweight by up to thirty pounds, get the large.
Materials: The mediums are manufactured to 70% synthetic, 30% linen—which is a great mix, as is doesn’t have to be ironed after it’s washed and hung to dry, nor does it have to be ironed every time you get up from a chair. I’ve had many 100% linen shirts and sure, they look great after you spend thirty minutes ironing them, just to look like a crumpled up newspaper after you get out of your car. My experience with linen shirts is what brought me here.
Unboxing the shirt:
I threw it on an ironing board the moment I unbagged it. I tried the Synthetic setting on the iron—it wasn’t enough. I then tried the Wool setting and set the steam setting to constant medium to high. It worked great. I didn’t have to press down at all, just lightly glided the iron across wrinkled areas of the shirt. Within five minutes, the shirt looked like a hundred-dollar shirt. The material is light, yet feels heavy to the touch and breathes very well in the heat. The hidden buttons give a clean, modern look that allows the shirt to be worn with anything from shorts and sandals to dress slacks and shoes in a club. I like to wear these shirts, untucked with a pair of jeans and western boots. This shirt is very comfortable, fits nice and is extremely versatile.

Great for the price
Size: Medium, Color: Grey
Nice and light material. Looks good. Suitable for hot temperatures and casual attire. The only thing I've noticed so far that isn't so great, is that the buttons are rather cheap and the middle part broke out on a few of them.

Impressive solution for the price
Configuration: 3-pack, Style: without eero Plus
I'm a network engineer snob who won't hesitate a single second to give most of the home router and wifi junk sold today a terrible review when it's warranted. After having two router/wifi solutions made by that company that starts with Net and ends with Gear fail on me in less than 6 months, I was about ready to spend a few grand on a Ubiquiti solution and wire up my home for access points and cameras. Then a colleague and friend of mine suggested this eero mesh system as a lower cost/effort option. I'm not a fan of plug and play stuff and was skeptical but figured I could return it if not happy. I have to say I'm pretty impressed. The set up was almost too easy. Just download the eero app to your phone, plug a device in and connect the 2.5g port to your router and the app will walk you through it all. Most importantly, it worked really well when solutions like this from other vendors don't forcing you to connect a cable and manually set up. At first I didn't like that there isn't any ability to give the 2.4ghz and 5ghz networks different SSIDs (I had my previous router set up this way and changing this would have meant climbing up a ladder and reconfiguring several Ring cameras) but eero let's you change the name of the Guest Network to anything you want so this was an easy work around. As others have mentioned download the Wifiman app and shortcut and start scanning your house after you install the main router/wifi device. When you find spots that the signal drops below GOOD quality (-70dbm) drop another unit in between the first and where the signal dropped to poor quality. I bought the 3 pack thinking I'd need it to cover a 6,000 sq ft home. However one device was provided good coverage for most of my house and two provided either excellent or good signal strength everywhere inside and even outside on my patio and driveway. I only have one device on the first and second floors and both floors as well as the basement are all receiving good/excellent signal quality. I could have definitely saved $100 and gone with a two pack but I'm ok with having an extra device as a back up or if someone else in the family needs it (keep in mind any of these devices can act as a standalone router/wifi solution) or even to temporarily extend WiFi farther out into my yard in fair weather for outdoor gatherings etc.. Overall I'm impressed. The dashboard and tools/analytics included with the app are more than adequate for home users. You can even set up alerts for new devices connecting to your network. The GUI is modern and responsive and not like some of the traditional router vendors who still support an antiquated web login that takes forever to connect, lags between function and times out frequently. Time will tell if this is reliable but as mentioned a friend and colleague who owns his own network solution business told me he installs these in homes where the cost and wiring of a Ubiquiti or similar solution is prohibitive and he's never had an issue with their performance and reliability.

Bomb.com
Configuration: 3-pack, Style: without eero Plus
Not sure why this doesn’t have 5 stars from everyone! Got the three device set up and man this couldn’t have been easier to set up. This system is bomb, like I’m not sure how much easier of a setup people even want. Everything was basically plug-and-play, and the app walks you through it so smoothly it almost feels too easy.
Performance-wise, it’s been amazing. The coverage is solid throughout the whole house, and the speeds are not just fast—they’re consistent everywhere on Wi-Fi, not just when you’re hardwired. I haven’t had any random drops or dead zones like I used to deal with. Compared to the Cox gateway, it’s not even close. They charge $15 a month to rent that thing and it doesn’t hold a candle to this setup—honestly kind of ridiculous.
And the quality? Top tier. It honestly feels like an Apple product. From the packaging to the devices themselves, even the cords and the app—everything just feels super polished and premium. I’m actually glad Amazon acquired eero because you can see that level of refinement in the whole experience.
My only complaint is the price tag. $400 is definitely not cheap. But when you break it down, Cox charges $15 a month to rent their gateway—that’s $180 a year. In just about two years, this system basically pays for itself, and you’re getting way better performance the whole time.
Overall, 110% happy with this purchase.

Works very well. Very easy to set up.
Configuration: 1-pack, Style: without eero Plus
Previously just had the standard wifi router provided by ATT with fiber connection. It was fine really but some parts of the house lacked good signal. Purchased the 6 Pro E and put the ATT router in bridge mode, the Eero instructions on doing that were perfect and it worked. The 6 Pro E was up and running in minutes and did it's own software updated immediately. Was super easy to rename the network, set the password and permissions and every single device that was previously on the old router connected seamlessly on it's own without any intervention. I think possibly one 2.5GHz device may not have auto-connected but it connected just fine once I put it in pairing mode. We have a lot of devices, mixed 5ghz and 2.5ghz, and so far both networks broadcast fine and everything works. Also 5th Gen Echo Dots seamlessly boost the wifi signal and I already had those in nearly every room before getting the Eero 6 Pro E.
Few things to note:
I don't pay for Eero Plus subscription so I don't use any of the extra reporting features.
New devices connect with what looks like a random code or with a manufacturers name, which usually does not help identify what it is. That can be a challenge when you're trying to figure out if it is something you just added or someone else who managed to get in passed the firewall. Googling the name that shows up does not always help figure out what it is.
For some reason my iphone reconnects every few weeks as a "new device" with a name of "unknown device". This does not happen with my husband's iphone. This means that at any given time there is one active "unknown device" and several others that are inactive with that name. Looks like eventually they drop off the recently connected inactive list. Even if I rename it to something specific, after a few weeks it will reconnect as if it's brand new and I'll get an Eero notification that a new device has connected. It is frustrating to have to continually check the app to make sure it's just my own phone and not something intruding.
The Eero devices have a Zigbee hub built-in but my recent purchase of motorized Alexa compatible shades with Zigbee motors had issues. They connected sort of, but were not functioning in the Alexa app even though both Eero and the shade manufacturer said they should work. Eventually I had to also buy 2 older 4th gen Echo's that also have a Zigbee hub built-in, only then would they be found by Alexa and then they started working in Alexa app with voice and scheduling. However, adding the old 4th gen echos created two more issues: While every single other device in my house on other floors away from the Eero 6 Pro can connect just fine because I have 5th Gen Echos in most rooms boosting the mesh coverage, for some reason, the 4th Gen Echo placed on the second floor could not connect to the 6 Pro E router on the first floor. I had to end up buying a second Eero 6 for the second floor to act as a booster up there as well. Only then did the second floor 4th Gen Echo connect to wifi and stay connected. That's very odd because everything else on the second floor and in the basement and detached garage had no issues connecting to either the wide array of 5th Gen Echos or to the main 6 Pro E on the first floor. The second new issue... the Eero devices are set to roam automatically which is the point of mesh coverage. However, the Zigbee shades hated that feature and would constantly bounce from the nearest 4th Gen Echo to the 6 Pro E and back. Each bounce made them "unresponsive" in the Alexa App. Eventually I had to turn off that roaming feature in the Eero app settings so that every device now connects to whichever Echo or Eero it sees first and then stays there. Defeats the purpose of having mesh but it was the only way to make the $2000 worth of "smart" shades actually work with the network and Alexa.
