GE WR51X10101 Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly for Refrigerator

I was a little hesitant ordering this knowing that it wasn't a GE-manufactured part. However, it seems to be constructed nearly identically, and the dual-element design (over the original single-element) seems to be more effective during the defrost cycle. I watched a youtube video (search for 'Refrigerator Defrost Heater GE WR51X10101' on youtube) in order to verify my install. It was pretty straightforward, and indeed the dual-element heater fits with no problems in place of the single-element heater. So far, so good. I'll update my review in case of early failure.

Kit had everything needed to retrofit the original single element heater like a glove. Easy to install. The original single element heater failed after five years, the replacement single element also fail in five years, so we going to see if this new dual element design has a longer life than the original equipment. There is a reason why the design has gone from single to dual element.... for longer life.

Priced at $4 is a great deal compared to other suppliers. It is packaged in a GE boxed piece of equipment. The only thing is that the heater is giving off a bit of a 'burning' smell. I'm hoping that this 'smell' goes away after a little time as the heater's coating is 'burned' off...... we'll see.

Great price, better design, complete retrofit kit, easy to install, quick standard shipping time,

Had a GE refrigator for 6 years and doesn't cool at all. Got a mechanics to check, asked for 600 worth of repair. As he is a friend's friend, I paid 100 for the diagnostics, which I found later is a rip off. Then I checked myself and diagnosed that the defrost hearter is the problem. Bought a pair just in case and install like in 15 minutes. Our refrigator is small, so be careful install and don't drop your bolts. After repair, the refrigerator works like new again. And still I have an extra for future repair as I heard those OEM ones last only couple of years.
