Service wanted to charge me $600 for parts and labor to replace these side pieces. Less than $30, this video and less than an hour later (someone in the family wanted to help without watching the video, must be something about directions and maps) I've fixed the dishwasher and put everything back together. Thank you!!!!

What a straightforward video. Just completed this install and now happy the new part has stronger metal screws to hold the wheels in. Thank you

This was an excellent video. The presenter stepped through the process so methodically -- both the removal of the old part and the installation of the new -- and his verbal presentation was professional quality. I wish all such videos were of this caliber.

Thank you! This was an absolute excellent video. It was well filmed. It was focused and close enough for me to see every little detail. I’m a 50 old woman and this was super easy to do.

Great video and glad I found this! Thank you!! Probably would have broke it all apart in frustration and thrown it all away then convince my wife we dont actually need a top dish rack, it's just for aesthetics.

Saved me at least 200 bucks on a service repair. Thank you!

Thank you for this video! Crazy how a 15min fix and 1hr drive time(to grab part)can change a 3 month problem lol I feel more of a Man to be able to fix stuff like this and all thanks to this video

I saved a ton of money with this video....ordered the part which arrived in 2 days, watched the video, 30 minutes later my dishwasher was fixed. Very grateful! Thank you!

What a great teacher! Steve goes at a nice pace fully explaining each step for the installation. So helpful and reassuring. Thank you so much for your help!

An outstanding video that made this repair simple and easy. Our dishwasher is a Jenn-Air (apparently made by Whirlpool) and used the same part. It may be worth adding Jenn-Air to the video title. A huge thanks for sharing your knowledge! You save our family a lot of money.

Excellent step by step video. Made what could have been a confusing job into simple and easy to understand. Many of the other videos I viewed on this procedure skimmed over locking tabs, and detailed disassembly and most importantly reassembly. Nice job.

Super helpful! I got my new kit without any instructions to tell me how to remove my old parts first. Thank you!

[tnextreme]

I used your video to help me take my top rack apart, thanks for being so clear and straight to the point!

[rsd]

Thanks man. I am far from a handy guy but with your step by step guidance, the upper rack is now fixed. Thanks a lot!

[howardabe]

Thank you so much for a clear and concise video. Unlike a number of other instructional videos you went through the entire process including all of the smallest points. I was able to follow your directions and replaced both sides quickly and efficiently.

Thank you for helping me fix my dishwasher. Clear details and excellent explanation.

Amazing video. The step by step made it easy to repair. Thank you!!!

[lynnd]

Thanks My JennAir needed attention, and I decided it was time to replace the zip tie that I Jimmy rigged to hold up one side of the top rack. after viewing a few others I can confidently say this is the one people!
Its funny how easy it looks when a knowledgeable person is at the helm. Thorough, clear and concise. No Guessing " lets try this"....

This video helped us fix our dishwasher for less than $50 for the part! Thank you!!
