Cheap option not a lasting option
Cost is very reasonable. But with that said, plan on buying this part many times as they don’t last. After the 4th unit, i decided to go with an actual OEM unit. This was after a full diagnostic of cause was made after each failure. Even disassembling the dryer vent system to find if blockages or diminished airflow resulted in the element burnout. What I found after getting the OEM and comparing data.OEM vs AFterMarektCoil size apps 1/2 inch vs 3/4 inchCould ohms 27.2 ohm vs 21.8 ohmThese two factors alone are my opinion why this things fails so quickly as the close proximity of the coils to each other being larger (less space between) prevent cooling of the coils and melt down occurs faster. The aftermarket unit at every year down the base metal divider had gotten so hot it warped the structure metal. There even seemed to be a weight difference between the OEM and Aftermarket when held in your hand and the tube wall structure of the OEM feels stronger and heavier.The comparison of the resistance was the key indicator for me that says these are designed to burn out. Using Ohms Law for the calculations. The after market unit is a much hotter unit as both watts and amperage calculations were higher. I had no way of testing the metallurgy of the coil wire composition, but likely made with inferior percentages I suspect. As it could be a factor represented in the resistance measurement. Diameter of the element wire visually seemed identical, but was not measured with mic. Note the resistance could also be caused by actual amount of wraps each coils leg has but counting them individually was impossible with out full disassembly of the new OEM unit. Which I didn’t want to do.I guess my opinion is these units are engineered to fail and be replaced often. Consider it like a shortest life light bulb designed and built for repeat purchase.Spend the extra money for an OEM and you will get greater life expectancy.The OEM I went with cost was appt $180 but got free shipping. Compared to these $40 units that need replaced every 3-6 months. Like I said it took 4 units and the down time of a couple days to get up and running again.We have 8 persons for laundry so the machine is needed often, and quantity of our laundry is likely higher than average comparatively. That could also explain the shortened life cycle, but cycles are cycles and that count matters most. Numbers and data I think beat represent what’s going on. These units are not exact replacements.

Great replacement and fixed our dryer
This is the second one we ordered in less than 5 years which makes me think there is a manufacture defect! Nevertheless, this part fixed our problem. Great find!

Easy fix. Just annoying to have to repeat.
This part fits as it should. Easy to install. 5th time doing this in 6 years so I can almost do it with my eyes closed. If you own a Frigidaire Affinity dryer you might consider buying a different brand of dryer. This seems to be the norm for this brand and model. Good luck

Good value
Good so far. Decent quality and cheaper than hiring a tech

Only lasted 30 days. Cheap Product
I have bought many of these from different sellers over the years on Amazon to replace the heater element in my Electrolux dryer. They usually last about 1 year. The one I brought from this vendor lasted 30 days. When I removed the element from my dryer the metal material inside the cylinder was twisted and bent. I can only guess this is due to cheap and inferior material used to make it. I do not recommend buying from this supplier.

Electrolux Frigidaire is the problem
I go through about 3 of these a year. There is something wrong with the Frigidaire Electrolux design that continually overloads the heating element. I have zero lint in the line and a brand new electrical panel and wiring. This part fixes the e64 error that occurs when the dryer eventually overheats. I can usually do this repair in 30 minutes because I've done it so many times. Way cheaper than a new dryer or repairman. One photo shows the new one installed, the other shows the old one that overheated and shorted out.

Stopped working after 3 years
We purchased this item in July 2021 to replace the heating element for our Frigidaire dryer, model FFSE5115PW0. A couple of week ago (Nov 2024), this part stopped working. It seems to me that the part should last more than three years.I also wanted to add that the part did not seem to produce the same amount of heat as the heating element that was originally in the dryer as loads required the longest dry cycle (1 hour "bedding" cycle) and then another 15-30 minutes to dry.I would love some feedback from the seller on this issue. Thank you.
