ZAITOE 8194001 Dishwasher Door Balance Link Kit Replacement for Whirlpool - Part W10158291,1059756, 8194001VP,AP3775412 Review

I thought I'd try to replace it myself. I mean, since the handyman wanted $100 just to come in the house. All it took was loosening 2 screws and a bit of work to get the dishwasher out. After that, no more than 5 minutes passed.

Small size and rope diameter several times smaller than OEM. Very cheaply made and very noisy, sounds like it will fail every time the dw door is opened or closed. Been using it for a few months and surprisingly, despite all the moaning, it hasn't broken yet.

This product does not correspond to the advertisement. The plastic swivel is not as strong as the OEM part and does not have a slight flex at the string attachment point to increase stiffness. The cord is also much shorter than the OEM, meaning you have to stretch the spring to install this part, making the dishwasher door harder to open fully.

Direct fit replacement that works great but wow it's loud. I tried using the stock cable as another review noted it was shorter but it made no difference. The pulley itself creaks and creaks. Lubricating doesn't help either. It's good that the door isn't open now, but that sound is just awful. My top pulley creaks, the native top pulley was motionless. It's not even funny how loud and awful that sound is. The car sounds old and rusty.

One of my two cords broke so I ordered this set to replace. I figured I might as well remove all the old parts and replace them with new ones. The problem was that the pulleys made a terribly loud creaking noise. I watched YouTube videos explaining how to lubricate wheels and cables, which I did. I used WD40, petroleum jelly, and white lithium grease. no improvement. Finally put the old pulleys in and the noise was gone. I will not order an OEM kit as the originals I left on the unit were in…

I was using this product when a door cord on one side of my dishwasher broke and the door would not fall down. Like everything, YouTube how to make repairs. I completed the repair and the cables worked as advertised with one exception. The door made an awful noise every time you opened and closed it. I tried all the youtube tricks to get rid of the noise: I was really hoping that smearing the cables with petroleum jelly would get rid of the annoying noise, but it didn't happen. I even tried…

I had to get creative with the installation of my dishwasher because I can't remove the dishwasher, but the dishwasher is mounted on 2 x 4 standoffs so I could put my arm through the bottom and my arm through the side Bottom. I didn't have to replace the pulley, just the cord and clip. First I had to attach the spring to the back, and then attach the end of the new string to that spring, pull the spring to the pulley with the string, thread and click. Not the way to do it, but it worked. It…

Firstly they are the same as all the others sold here - they all appear to be made by the same factory and are simply renamed here. I wouldn't believe their pictures are any better, that's the whole fuss. Second, it actually took me two tries and two different kits to get it sounding as good as the original. I just installed my first set and it sounded terrible. Have tried all sorts of lubricants (Vaseline) without success. I basically smudged everything to the point of no return/correction, my

This is the first spring link to break in my decades of owning dishwashers. I opened the door, the spring "cocked" and the door swung open - hard! Creepy. Thought the spring was broken. When I pulled the dishwasher out from under the counter, I saw that only one of the nylon cords had snapped. Why did I receive this kit and not one of the others listed on Revain? Because even though they are all listed as part number 8194001, this picture shows that the ears on the nylon earbud have been bent…
