Drawer guide broken (for YEARS!!)
We have an older .......range that came with our house when we bought it in 2000...the stove works fine (for an electric stove!), but the drawer was always problematic. Sometimes it would sit straight in the appliance cabinet and sometimes it wouldn’t. Sometimes it would flop up and down, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn’t!
We lived with it for TEN years...then a couple of weeks ago I needed a pizza pan. I opened the drawer and the darned thing wouldn’t go back into the stove properly. I played with it for awhile, trying to figure out why it didn’t work correctly! After some energetic observation (accompanied by some choice words about American engineering!) I realized the front drawer guide was broken off!! It was one of those “Aha!” moments!!
I retrieved the plastic piece and went to a local appliance store to get a replacement. They said they’d order one (for 8.95 and I pay shipping and handling!), and it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get it! I declined their offer. Surely, somwhere on the internet there was a supplier who had this part!!
I sat down with my MacBook Pro and looked up “range parts” and was immediately directed to partselect.com. I looked up the part (which was ONLY $3.38) and ordered two. I had the parts in my hand in four days, and even with shipping paid less than half what the other place wanted locally.
I pulled the drawer out, literally dropped in the new guide, and the drawer has worked flawlessly since!! We are forever grateful for PartSelect and will always keep their address on top of our web vendors list!!
Give them a chance...the least you could do is save some aggravation, and maybe a little bit of money, too!!

Old Drip Bowls Corroded beyond Repair
I've been to many appliance repair stores looking for White-Westinghouse Stove Parts and have been told their 'unavailable'! Then I checked PartsSelect.com- and they were listed as 'available'. The 6" & 8" Drip Bowls shipped quick and arrived packed well. The new Drip Bowls aren't as heavily made as the originals- but they are exact replacements and very easy to replace. The wife is happy and with many replacement parts & how-to-videos for repair we plan on keeping this stove for another 20 years!

Broken drawer glide
I used a screw driver to pop the broken glide out and then snapped in the new one. The repair took all of about 30 seconds. It probably would have taken even less time if the former owner had not epoxied the broken piece in place.

I accidently threw away the drawer glide, when it fell off one day b/c I didn't know what it was. Later on when I started pulling out the bottom stove drawer, I discovered that it wasn't gliding properly....duh...
I just placed the new glider in place and put the drawer back on its hinges and it was good to go... my wife was extremely happy

Missing drawer glide
I attached the drawer glide clips to the stove and inserted the drawer, done in minutes. The video on your site actually made it very easy made it so there was no guessing.

Replacing broken parts
Wow! That was simple! I did not even have to run all over town looking for the parts. I just hopped on the web, checked out the online diagrams, ordered and the parts showed up in the mail within a few days. It could not have been easier. Parts Select is now in my bookmarks for future use.!
Thanks guys

Draw would fall into the floor when opened
I watched the video before ordering the part. When it arrived, I knew exactly what to do. No tools were needed. It took me 2 tries to get the drawer aligned properly but the whole repair took about a minute. The video was invaluable!

The sliding drawer at the bottom of my stove would not stay in position.
I pul;led out the drawer and inserted the front glide in about 2 seconds and slid the drawer back in! Presto--fixed!
