Crosley Washer Handle

The Door Handle is an OEM component for Whirlpool dryers. It provides convenient access to load and unload clothes through the dryer door opening. 

Causes of a bad door handle can include normal wear and tear over extended use. Repeated clutching and releasing of the handle leads to fatigue of rubberized grip areas and loosening of mechanical connections. Accidental falls or impacts when transporting dry loads of clothes could also damage the handle structure or mounting.

Symptoms of a bad dryer door handle include:

• Increased play, wobble, or looseness when grasped  
• Detachment or separation from the door assembly
• Cracks, splitting, or broken areas compromising the grip surface
• Inability to smoothly open or close the dryer door

Compatible models also include Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore dryers.

The Door Handle is an OEM component for Frigidaire front-load washing machines. It serves as the central access point for loading and unloading clothes. The door handle is designed to withstand years of use with a durable grasp surface for wet hands. 

Symptoms of a bad door handle include:

• Looseness, wobbling, or detachment when held
• Chipped or cracked material on the handle surface
• Difficulty opening and closing the washer door 

Causes of failure can be regular heavy use of the handle over many cycles of washing. Natural wear and tear as well as occasional impacts also put stress on the handle mechanism.

This Frigidaire OEM part is also compatible with some Electrolux and Kenmore front-load washer models.
