Disappointed in parts not correctly labeled as sho
The belt does not fit Maytag Bravo series. The pulley was too thick. Not as pictured. Also, Maytag dryer, which I did verify the model number for for the parts kit, takes 5 rollers. Had to buy extra thru Sears and reuse an old one. Spent close to $68 for this kit thru Sears. I ended up getting the correct pulley for $5.99 on Amazon, the very next day!

My brother called needing a part for his daughters dryer. I know nothing of these things but luckily it was a Kenmore and found it super easy to find just what I needed and it was on sale. Ordered and had it shipped right to his door. I don't know how it was to install but the laundry is getting done. Made me feel like a super hero.
