Product review (3 stars): Excellent seller, but the OEM Whirlpool part is not proper for my 1996 Kitchenaid Model KUDI24SEWH1 dishwasher
The shipping and RMA refund were handled promptly - will buy from the seller again if/when a proper replacement part becomes available.

The following review/rating given here is strictly on the Whirlpool Part Number 4172127 (lower door seal) -

If you have an older model of the Kitchenaid / Whirlpool dishwasher (mine is a 1996 Kitchenaid Model KUDI24SEWH1), this OEM lower door seal would not work as a proper replacement - Kitchenaid changed the design of the seal and it does not have a flexible rubber strip hanging from the insert (which the original seal has but it has become brittle due to age and is partially broken off of the seal).

This replacement seal without the rubber strip doesl not seal the door properly and water will still leak out from the door bottom.
