Product review (5 stars): I'm glad I tried it anyways and now have my compactor ...
We recently moved into our house that has an older whirlpool gold series compactor. It didn't take but a week before my kids grabbed the key and lost it. I purchased this key hoping that it would replace the lost one and I would be able to use the compactor again. The original was black but the color isn't a huge deal breaker for me. When this key arrived, it was much smaller than the original. I wasn't sure if it would be the correct key and my husband almost sent it back. It is the correct fit and works perfectly. I'm glad I tried it anyways and now have my compactor back.
