Excellent Kit! Do it now now before dryer issues arise
I was a little leary of this dryer roller kit and was concerned about the quality and if it would match the oem rollers and parts. I was wrong, this kit was perfect! Even the band was like the original in quality and ribbed. Just perfect. After 20+ years with my LG dryer Model DLE2701V, my dryer was making an odd noise. One of the rollers was shot and no longer turning. I replaced all rollers, swivel roller and band. Take your time and be patient. I found a video on how to replace and remove parta for lg dryer in youtube and planned ahead before dissembly day. More importantly be prepared to clean the dryer of years of lint and dust using shop vac and microsoft towels. In severe cases a little toothbrush with dish soap help remove stubborn dried lint. Take your time and be patient, did this while catching up on podcasts. Save $$$ by doing this before the dryer breakdown, learn a new skill and challenge yourself! One last tip wear mechanic gloves or leather gloves to protect your hands, the inside parts of the aluminun parts are sharp, this will avoid those nasty aluminum cuts when dissembling. Guard your screws and take pictures of any wiring harnesses you remove for reference. Good luck!

Does the job for a good price
Our dryer (LG DLGX5001) is about 7 years old and started making a horrible rubbing noise when running. I figured it was the rollers and took it apart to confirm. I found these after a quick search and since the price seemed reasonable and I could get them overnight, I ordered them. They don't match 1:1 with the OEM parts, but they fit no problem and the dryer is running like it used to. I'm not sure how they will hold up long term, but they're not super difficult to replace if needed. I ended up replacing all four rollers, the belt and tensioner since they were included. I did notice that the bearings in the roller had a slight noise to them that the OEM ones didn't, but it doesn't seem to be audible over the other noises of the dryer. I also ended up reusing the OEM washer and nuts since they were slightly larger than the ones that came in this kit (they'd fit, but I wanted to keep the larger sized ones).

So far, so good!
I've seen some complaints that these aren't equipped with ball bearings and don't last as long as OEM. I didn't see any ball bearings in my OEM when I took them out for locking up, after a decade-plus of use. So far, so good with these. I did add a drop of Mobile 1 0W-20 oil to each (hey, it's what our cars use), and they seem to be working fine. If I have to get another set, I'll probably try a dry graphite lube, but . . . these spin fine, so not worrying about it yet. The price was definitely right, as was the fact that . . . they were available at all!

I bought these new rollers to replace the OEM rollers that would get flat spots on them when the drier was not in use.These upgraded rollers do not get the flat spots and are a definite upgrade to the OEM rollers

Inexpensive repair that saves hundreds of dollars
Our 10 year old LG dryer started to scream out in pain this weekend. The normal issue is the rollers. I ordered the kit and followed a Youtube video with our model to dissemble the dryer and replace the rollers and belt. It took a couple hours to get it all done but saved us hundreds of dollars. I do not know how long the rollers will last but I docked a star since they do not move as freely and quietly as the old ones, aside from the one roller that locked up.

Extremely good deal!
Excellent kit! Our dryer started getting really loud and sure enough I found one drum wheel had completely broke off. I spent about two hours cleaning and replacing everything included in the kit. Everything fit perfectly and now our dryer is whisper quiet! Saved us about 1000 bucks for a new dryer!

Works make dryer feel new
Perfect fit, can't say much about longevity. 3 of four roller were bad. Replacement was easy, would recommend it

Quiet is the new normal!
The older LG dryer in our new house (DLE2101W) was incredibly noisy. After leveling it off to no avail, it became apparent the problem was something inside the dryer. After perusing YouTube, it became clear that many LG dryers have the same problem after a while. I was originally just in the market for rollers thinking that was the problem, but saw this complete repair kit on a link from YouTube and thought I would give it a try. When I got the dryer open, I replaced all of the parts, because it wasn't obvious what was broken. Keep track of your screws - you'll need a screwdriver/drill, ratchet (10mm), an adjustable wrench, and a vacuum for all the dust. Slip the adjustable wrench underneath and behind the rear panel to get the rear side rollers off. I think it took about 90 minutes from beginning to end, and not terribly difficult. Take your time repositioning the front panel on reassembly.Wow! What a difference! I cleaned everything, replaced the parts (rollers, tension pulley, and belt). Dryer is quiet and running smoothly! Wife-approved!Will the parts hold up? No doubt we will put them through their paces. I will return to update this review if they fail. But even if they have half the life of the original parts, it is seems like a worthwhile investment. Good luck!
