The bottom heating element was not working
This is a forty five year old oven. It was only four screws and it was done. The new part works like a champ! This save me from buying a $800.00 replacement. I removed the two 1/4 screws holding the element to the back of the oven and then took the flat head screws loose from the terminals on the old element. I then put everything back as it came out; took less than 5 minutes and the part arrived overnight! Thank you again!!

element was not heating
I unscrewed the screw that held the element in place and then took the hex head nuts holding the 3 wires off the old element. When taking the wires off, I had the new element next the old and put each on the same connection one at a time to make sure I replaced the wires in the same location they were on the old element. After connecting the 3 wires, I reattached the element to the range.

Replacing bake element
Undid two screws to pull the element out, and another two to unhook it from the wires. Reverse procedure with the new element and baked some muffins. The hardest part about this repair was getting the part. I typo'd my shipping address and had to knock on a neighbor's door!

The burner only heated half of the coils
The repair went well and once again my stove that was installed back in 1968 is working perfectly. We will be buying another 6" burner and 2-8" so we have them when they begin to burn out. We looked everywhere for a replacement and was told they do not make them anymore, but we found it here. Thank you!

Very low oven heat
Ordered new element (super-easy to select the right one at this site!). Turned off stove breakers. Removed two screws holding mounting hinge plate with nutdriver. Detached wires with regular screwdriver. Attached wires to new element lugs with screwdriver, using furnished new screws. Reinstalled element hinged mounting plate with screws and nutdriver. Only difficulty is 1) working bent over inside the oven because the wires are short, and 2) wire screws are regular, not Philips, with shallow slots so screwdriver slips out frequently.

A plastic bowl was placed on the hot eye and melted.
The old eye was lifted up, hinge screw removed, and three screws removed from the eye that connected lines to it. Did just opposite for installation. Very easy. The hardest problem was finding an eye with three screw-type connections.

Element had cracked - arcing to oven base.
My oven is so old that the model # tag has been scrubbed blank. I search your site by Brand name and oven description. I found the pictured element in your listing and sized it up. Part arrived as promised. It was simple to install - power down oven via circuit breaker and remove 4 ea screws and removed defective element. Install new element and reattach via screws. Turn on circuit breaker and power up oven to test - all working fine.

bake unit burnt out
It was easy and worth doing myself because a repairman said, he could do it for $50.00 dollars. I spent $28.00 which includes the shipping cost.
