I'll check them, I've taken apart a few for belt replacements with flat spots on the wheels, all Whirlpool. Maybe not "worn out" per say, but the noise difference when you replaced them was sure notable.

Don't even get me started about Whirlpool's tension "slide" on the Ropers.



Find a like new Roper? Pop the top and see if it shredded the belt, replace belt, check for slide, replace slide with wheel or put a new belt on again in a few months.
