Serious question, I used to think those $20 thermal fuses were all junk until one from a local parts house in Boise saved a dryer I was ready to scrap.

I swapped it in as a last resort after checking everything else, and the thing fired right up, which made me wonder if maybe the problem is just the wildly inconsistent quality control on those parts and not the part type itself.

What brand was the one that worked? I've had the total opposite luck, the ones from the big box stores always seem to fail again in like six months. Makes you wonder if it's just a batch thing, some are good and some are total junk right out of the package.

Total junk right out of the package" is basically their business model at this point.
