Product review (3 stars): Messy !!!
Transmission went out on my kenmore elite washer, it made more sense to replace it rather than buy a new machine since the rest of the washer is in good condition. Package arrived quickly but noticed one corner of  the Amazon box wet with oil, inside I found about 75% of the manufacturers box soaked in oil, inside of that was the gear case wrapped in a plastic bag which was also drenched in oil. The manufacturers box says keep upright, the Amazon box doesn't, there is a vent hole on top of the gear case that is temporarily plugged for shipping that was leaking so it's obvious what happened. Normally I would have returned something in this condition but we had already gone several days without a washer and the clothes had started to pile up so I cleaned everything up, opened the gear case cover , refilled with oil, and installed on washer. Washing machine runs like a new one again except it is louder in the pump cycle . Transmission appears to be same quality as original inside and out. If it wasn't for the oil problem I would have give it five stars
