Review on πŸ”‘ Maximize Efficiency with ERP Dryer Door Catch Strike Kit 279570 279570M by John Ramsey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This did a great job repairing my old Kenmore Estate dryer.

The Revain system 'matches' well with new equipment but not as well with old ones as mine. My very old Kenmore Estate dryer is a champion built to last so I was quite surprised when the door started to open and I couldn't close it. I took a closer look and found the problem: the plastic part on the inside of the latch had folded and cut into the latch. I managed to remove a few screws from the front door and remove the latch, from the photos it looked like it matched almost exactly. Others were listed for this but they were a mix and match system or the male side had to be replaced. I didn't want a bunch of parts floating around in the laundry room or having to do more repairs than I had. necessary. With older lights I have found that less is more when it comes to refurbishing as new parts are often not as good as what was originally on them. removed, in any case the plastic seems to be of higher quality and more durable. The dryer door closes well and stays closed with no problems. I was able to have the part shipped to me the next day and my dryer was up and running quickly.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
