What are OEM parts for appliances?

OEM parts are Original Equipment Manufacturer parts. These are made by the same company that made the parts for your appliance when it was new, ensuring the same fit, quality, and performance.

What is the difference between OEM and non-OEM parts?

OEM parts are made by the original brand and match your appliance exactly. Non-OEM parts are made by third-party manufacturers and may not fit or perform as reliably.

Are OEM parts better than generic parts?

Yes, OEM parts are generally better because they are designed specifically for your appliance. They offer better fit, durability, and performance compared to generic or aftermarket parts.

How do I find my appliance model number?

Look for a label or metal plate on your appliance — usually near the door frame, behind the door, or on the back. Enter the model number in the search bar at FixThisAppliance.com to find compatible OEM parts.
