### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install, works great
*by J***D on July 6, 2022*

The element went out in my 2021 camper and this arrived quickly and I was able to make the switch in minutes. The water is really, really hot.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality
*by E***E on August 6, 2024*

Purchased for a boiling bucket and works perfect

### ⭐ Poor quality
*by C***. on March 3, 2026*

Purchased 4 of these. Installed one and 2 weeks later, no hot water. Removed it, found it to have corroded at the base. Did an Ohms test, OL, failed. Threw that in the trash. Replaced it with the 2nd of the 4, it lasted only 16 days. Removed that and found it failed in the same manner. These pictures are of the 2nd failed element. Unfortunately, outside of the return window.
