The water heater I own is a Rheem 50 Gallon Performance Plus electric water heater. I purchased this at the Home Depot a couple of years ago and it has worked well. I am not sure why my upper element went bad so fast, but as you can see in the video, it was messed up as I pulled it out.
This repair was not very difficult at all. It was completed with minimal tools.
Thanks for watching.
