latch on detergent assembly broken off
Easy repair-removed hex nuts and and screws to pop out old part and replace with new one. New part works better than the original! 1st replacement part arrived with a broken piece, a quick, courteous phone call got a replacement sent out. It took a 2nd phone call to obtain the refund, but the customer care reps are efficient and friendly. I would order from them again for positive service reasons alone.

The dishwasher detergent dispenser was broken.
The first thing I did was watch the video on the removal of the old broken dispenser and I said to myself that it couldn't be that easy. Well I am going on 70 years old and I was going to call a local to fix it. I bought the new dispenser just to avoid the up-charge. When the conformation email got here with video and written instructions. I watched the video and read the instructions. Just after the part arived (ahead of scheduls) I looked at the machins and said wat the he** what is she going to do to an old man. Got my screwdriver (battery and reversable) and wouldn't you know it . It only took me less then 15 minutes to do the whole job. I can't thank them enough for the video. Wife asked where the part was and almost pased out when I opened the door.. lol Trust these people . They know what they are doing!!!

The rollers on the bottom rack of my GE Monogram Dishwasher all broke and melted so opening and closing the rack was extremely difficult!
It couldn't have been easier. I installed the new wheels in seconds and the rack glides as perfectly as the day it was installed 11 years ago! Perfection! Your stellar website made it so easy to find the correct parts. BRAVO!!!!! I laughed! I cried! I am so ECSTATIC!!!!!
