Super Durable WE1M652 Timer Control Knob Replacement Part for Hotpoint General Electric Dryer - Replaces 1264289 AP3995164 PS1482196

Numéro un!!!

Well: for about a year: I was using a pair of plyers: to turn our G*E dryer on. I tried to repair the controller knob several times: and about 2 months ago it finally stopped turning the timer. I've been meaning to call G*E and try to order another one: but I just kept putting it off. I was just sitting at the computer: and up pops this controller knob in amazon suggestions: and it was only $6.99: so: what could I lose. So: I ordered it. I opened the bag: I held my breath: lined it up on the timer shaft: and prayed once more: and gave it a push. And: what do you know: It was a perfect fit! Folks: it's built with a tougher durable plastic: than the original one: and it even looks nicer than the original one as well. I'd give this one 10-stars because it saved me the extra hassle from going to the store: or calling the G*E co. to get another one.

I’ve had the product for a couple months now and it works great. The reason I selected this o e was because of the extra metal band around the plastic that connects to the dryer. That is the stress point that seems to always cracks. The only reason for 4 stars on the installation, which typically is just sliding in on the dryer timer, is because it didn’t fit exactly. I think it could have been my fault since I’ve had to use pliers to turn my dryer on. To fit this onto the timer, I simply used a box cutter and slightly trimmed the timer stem so the new dryer knob fit perfectly tight. It works fantastic now.

When I replaced the handle with this new one, there is a 1/4" noticeable gap, however the product is very sturdy so I don't mind.

Dryer timer knob broke at the metal clip that goes onto the timer shaft and needed a replacement. This knob was much tighter and took some force to install. Works perfect.
