Worked well easy to place

fixed it

Everything was fine except it arrived a week later than promised. Had not even shipped by the time i was supposed to have received it.

Never heard of agitator dogs but my daughter broke my agitator from overloading it (it spun both ways). Looking back it was half way broken for years! You should be able to turn the top of the agitator an inch and it should instantly catch on the bottom and only turn one way. If not something is wrong.When I took off the top of the agitator (the "fabric softener" part) I just saw little bits of broken plastic and no dogs. The fix was easy and there is just one bolt to unscrew. I pulled the whole agitator out and it took me longer to clean out all of the grease /crud/ things you don't want to see that was under it than putting it back together. Getting it back together took me a few tries. For some reason the top would not sit low enough so I had to fiddle with it and try a few positions till it was right. Take a close look at the agitator before you take it apart to see how low it should sit and how it goes back together.Maybe 15-20 min for a first time (with half of that cleaning crud) and $5 is the best repair bargain out there.

After a quick tutorial on YouTube installation was a cinch and solved my washing machine problem

I am constantly amazed at what Youtube DIY videos and cheap parts from Amazon has enabled average folks to do...siphoning business and overpriced services away from appliance repairmen.We have a 20 year old Whirlpool washer. It's a workhorse and if it died tomorrow we'd have absolutely no reservations about buying a new replacement. However, while I'm able to keep it (and the matching 20 year old dryer) going inexpensively with a home repair here and there, that's what we're doing.The agitator was clearly slipping, and barely getting movement of the clothes in the washer. After some investigation online, it was clear that these dogs needed to be replaced. I ordered them on Saturday, and Amazon had them in my hands Sunday afternoon. Before the end of the day, the agitator was working good as new.Amazing!

Just what the doctor ordered! The original agits were a crumbled mess in my aging Kenmore Washing Machine. 20 minutes (to watch a YouTube video & take apart/clean/install) and $5 Bucks later my faithful machine is not only fixed, but now working and agitating better than it has in years!If your machine is over 10 years old, I highly recommend replacing these inexpensive and simple to install components, even if your washer appears to be working okay. I say this because it's obvious to me now that they all didn't break at once, but degraded over time, making my washer less effective.BTW... This review and recommendation comes from a self-confessed Non-Handyman. So, if I could easily get the job done... So can you! 👍

GREAT GOT THE JOB DONE OURS HAD TURNED TO DUST AFTER 8 YRS OF USE..... THANK YOU
